Do u pay for something that cant be created nor destroyed? R u unplugged?...this applys to cars,planes,trains,homes ect..do u know how?

?? they don't create electricity or gas?

They generate electricity mechanically by spinning magnets in front of wire coils and refine gasoline.

I convert mechanical energy into electricity by capturing the wind with my VAWT. I use the excess energy that I cannot store to heat water. I can store enough that I can operate for 3 days without wind. That never happens. I plan to scale this design to cover all of my energy needs. And will divert the excess to landscape features.

Though biodiesel is not that difficult to create or obtain, and there are plenty of DIY plans to convert vehicles or other engines.

Micro-hydro is sexy, if you've got the right conditions. Not very expensive either.

And steam power is making a comeback.

I own a decent sized PV array, but using reflectors to heat water in vacuum walled tubes and then using it to power a turbine is also kinda sexy. Just water and sun.

Most choices depend on your local conditions as to which technology is more suitable for your particular geography.

My personal consumption is averaged at 13KWH/day of which 70-85% comes from my array. I have a small tankless heater to assist the storage tank, which has 2-48V coils that are my diversion load. This compensates for cold winters.

If I get into the vacuum tubes, I will have to redo much of my setup, but they are also the primary component of solar ovens. Which will cook, heat my living space and heat water that will supply the house and a mechanical engine to drive my rotor/stator array. And with a decent heat exchanger setup it can also be used to cool the house in summer.

Lots of good options.
None of which have been free.

I think Tesla believed...too bad he didn't accomplish it....

firstly I don't care what it is..
. if it's free.. give it to me....
.... unless.. I have to buy two before I get the third one free.grrrr

Robert Redford has his home running on solar energy since the 60's or 70's. Everything works great. A visionary ahead of his time.

Using alternative energy resources is an advantage for imminent situations....over stressing one resource could possibly cripple the world if it ran out with no alternatives so its always a good thing

It's only free, until the government decides to tax it.

There is an energy that permeates everything that exists. At an atomic level the electrons are the non-physical component. It is the acting upon the electrons that can effect healing and make changes in the subconscious mind. There is software that allows you to do such things. I use the software from Inergetix.com for purposes of healing diseases and disorders. It can be used for experimentation and research legally but not licenced to practice medicine. There is a disclaimer that applies.

nothing is free! you have to pay or someone has to...
we pay in one or the other mode of payment (i don't mean by only money)

Come to the UK and go on welfare. Everything is free then.

Us stupid people who work for a living will pay for it all.

End of another rant.

If you're referring to a devise that could hooked to your house to provide electricity...sure...it's been done...I know for a fact, and that's as far as I will take it.
Unfortunately, the current "energy czars" have enough financial and political influence to keep anything else from stepping on their toes.
Even if new tech was allowed, we still live in an economy based on scarcity with a fiat money system controlled by private banks...it still wouldn't be "free".

There was once a time when my house ran on wind power and a gasoline powered generator.

The gasoline and break-downs were no less than 6X greater than our local Hydro Power. (Eventually Was Connected To The Grid)

When the deep-cycle batteries eventually crapped-out... They'd of been over a hundred Dollars a piece to replace. I guess that 'just' broke-even with the value of wattage they displaced.

Solar Power is much more proficient today then Wind Power was then.

If anybody wants to live in the middle of nowhere it's not impossible, but it costs a bit to set-up and maintain.

Free means different things. Devices that produce more energy than they consume don't work. However, the movement of energy can be very cost effective which is why a heat pump can be several times as cost effective as an electric heater producing the same heat.

The best free energy in cooling a building is known as shade. Plant a tree next to your house and you won't have to pump the heat from the Sun back out of it that is blocked by the tree.

I have a heat pump water heater. The waste heat from a small air conditioner is used to heat the water tank so either the hot water is free or the air conditioning is free, depending upon how you look at it.

Energy can be converted from one form to another such as kinetic to potential and back. A wind turbine (which is not free) converts the kinetic energy of the wind to electricity or pumping action or belt driven indoor fans (a really cool idea!) which is considered "free" energy since you aren't paying the utility company.

One of the best "free" energy concepts is insulation (which isn't free) but saves tons of energy without you doing anything else.

I guess the only really free energy would be caulking your windows with used chewing gum that you chewed anyway.:smile:

Nothing is free. Everything has a cost, it's just in some cases you can't directly see the cost. For example the energy we receive from the sun comes at the cost of the sun's very life. Fortunately for us, we won't be around to see it collapse under it's own weight once it burns up its fuel supply.

After reading the "about us" section of their site, I'd say these aren't credible sources.
