Once these feed in tarriffs create enough solar and wind power
plants to supply all our energy needs we will all be millionaires as
we can use that energy to create all the goods we want.

Jim would like your comments on a closed off area in the ocean with
an inlet door at one end and outlet door at the other , open at the
top and bottom.
The sun would heat the water at the top and the expanded water
would rush out of the outlet door once its pressure was high enough.
The inlet door would let in more water. Put a water mill at the
outlet door. So what you have done is concentrated the solar power
into water power and since water is denser than air which is denser
than solar rays (sort of ) , you only need a small water mill to
generate equivalent amounts of power , compared to solar panels and
wind turbines.
Its so simple and work so well , why didnt anyone think of
it? I willl experiment with my solar tank in the garden. Uncle Al how
big would it have to be to give me 40kw to make me energy independent?

excerpt
Sphelar cells are solidified silicon drops measuring 1.8 mm in
diameter and are highly transparent, which is advantageous for a
number of reasons. They can be embedded in glass to create a
transparent solar cell window, capable of absorbing light from any
direction or angle. Because both sides of the glass can collect light,
this should translate into highly efficient energy harvesting.

The cells can also be embedded in flexible surfaces, allowing for them
to take on unusual shapes or be bent if necessary. The Sphelar Dome is
one such example, designed to absorb more energy in the early morning
and late evening unlike a flatter design.

As Germany and Spain are starting to realize, these are nothing more than
money pits which result in unreliable power at 3 to 5 times the cost of
conventional energy and an increased tax burden to cover the costs.

The only "millionaires" being created are the early participants sucking
at the teat of tax money.

Real wealth requires real productivity.

You want a comment?

How about this; it is gibbering, comic book science and you are a babbling
idiot.

This is the way to go, sometimes people have to be forced to
do the right thing. Otherwise we will all end up dead when oil runs
out

The Karnataka government has issued a notification, making the
installation of solar water heating system mandatory at all domestic,
commercial and industrial establishments in the state as an alternate
source of energy.

With solar powered electric trains you can put your factories
anywhere in the country

excerpt

Tribal lands make up almost 5 percent of the United States and
hold around 10 percent of the country's renewable energy resources.

According to the report, solar energy on tribal lands alone could
generate 4.5 times the total national energy consumption in 2004 �
17,600 billion kilowatt-hours.
