Most importantly, it provides independence and stability for you and your family. Syntonic Corporation, New Jersey – Authorized Distributor of South West Wind Power Products
I want to build the world’s first green theme park. I aspire to make every ride generate electricity. The ferris wheel, whirling dervish, looping starships, revolving gates, merry-go-round, carousel, tilt-o-whirls, and bumper cars could produce energy via centrifugal force. I want a gym with treadmills, stationary bikes, and turning cranks for restless children to do the same. Water rides could have stream engines that produce electricity, moreover. The blenders from all the smoothie bars and the waste vegetable oil from the restaurants can fuel the rides. All the building rooftops could have solar panels and helical wind turbines. I even want the restrooms to generate electricity with methane digester toilets. Therefore, anytime someone takes a crap, they’ll be providing power. Solar water heating, eaves, daylighting, ice coolers, passive ventilation, and rainwater collection would be everywhere. No green theme park can come without a green space. This idea encompasses a large biodome with several exotic species. I want the entire output of this place to be equivalent to that of a power plant. Then several other theme parks can adopt this principle. Alas, I must decide where to do the groundbreaking. My first choice would be in a city where cultural diffusion spreads. Therefore, it would have to be either New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles. Which is the most sensible location?
I want to one day build the world’s first green theme park. I aspire to make all the rides generate electricity from the centrifugal force. For example, the ferris wheel, whirling dervish, looping starships, revolving gates, merry-go-round, carousel, tilt-o-whirls, and bumper cars could produce energy. I even want a gym with treadmills and stationary bikes that could do the same. Not to mention cranks that restless children can turn. I imagine the water rides could have stream engines that produce electricity as well. The blenders from all the smoothie bars could help, and the waste vegetable oil from the restaurants can fuel the rides.

Hey You: Widespread use of ethanol sounds like a sexy idea, but in reality it’s impractical. It can’t replace gasoline as a dense energy source. It actually takes more energy to make ethanol than you get out of it. Further, that would cause the prices of corn to spike along with dairy and wheat products. Alas, ethanol is a corrosive material. Therefore, it can’t be transported through pipelines. The kind they use to replace diesel is actually E-85 which is 85 percent gasoline and 15 percent ethanol.
We are looking at buying a house and renovating it, and were wondering about using solar or wind power to power much of our house. We will have a well, be on a septic system, have a wood burning furnace for heating the house, so we would like to have solar or wind power so we can use as little electricity as possible (its insanely expensive here!). We also have our appliances (fridge, stove, washer, dryer, freezer).
How much would a basic set up be for a 900 sq ft, 3 bedroom house? For either wind turbines or solar panels and necessary equipment? I am in Southern Ontario.
