I’ve been living off grid for the past 16 years, I make my own electricity using an old washing machine I found at the dump. I rewired the smart-drive washing machine motor to generate electricity, the generator is rotated via a water driven Pelton Wheel ( Hydro Turbine ). Water goes into the intake, creates […]
DIY Solar power may seem like a daunting task. Fear not, this video WILL set you on the right path. We start by unraveling the mystery of off-grid solar power and teach you the basics, how to understand and think about your system. From there, we show you how to access and size the proper […]
In this video we’re meeting Art & Mary, a retired couple who set out to build an energy efficient and allergen-free home, and ended up living fully off the grid. They have a massive solar power system for the majority of their electrical needs, they process all their own firewood, grow and forage a lot […]
Electricity harnessed from wind has become the second largest source of energy in Germany since 2017 – and has thus out powered nuclear and coal. Nearly 30,000 on- and off-shore wind turbines are operating throughout the country, covering approx. 19 percent of energy consumption. This documentary follows the construction of a new wind power plant […]
Have you ever thought about living off the grid. How would you cook? How would you earn a living. What about lights in your house? Here is a family adventure about living off the grid and how they do it. Canning Foods, Solar Power, Raising Livestock and Chickens, and so much more! Check it out […]
Our hunger for energy goes beyond all limits and will double in the next 20 years. But what available technologies could meet the growing thirst for electricity? And will we also have to cut power consumption? What can Europe learn from China? And could “decentralization” into so-called “microgrids” be the future of energy? What is […]
Back in 2014, the Quant e-Sportlimousine, which is a salt water powered car, got an approval for use on European roads. This could be a sign that the Oil Cartels are losing the energy war. Since the early 1900s, the Oil Cartels, have been harassing and silencing alternative energy inventors who pose a threat to […]
Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Their survival plans involve carbon storage and floating wind farms. Meanwhile, one small German village is showing how large companies aren’t always essential. Over 80% of the world’s energy needs are provided by coal, oil and gas. Although technologies to […]
A century after Nikola Tesla’s famous Wardenclyffe tower was dismantled, the legacy of the world’s greatest inventor lives on in the form of a new project which aims to develop wireless power transmission and a host of other communications and energy functions. Strikingly similar to the Wardenclyffe tower, a new facility has gone up along a major […]
A research group from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, has made great, rapid strides towards the development of a specially designed molecule which can store solar energy for later use. These advances have been presented in four scientific articles this year, with the most recent being published in the highly ranked journal Energy & Environmental […]
