  8. Replaced a faulty solar inverter in my garage and added a battery for extra backup. With all that's happening I'm about to splash out on about 20kw of solar panels and look to add more batteries to a container I'm going to set aside for them.
    Can I afford them? No. But I can't afford to keep paying huge amounts for power. If anyone knows where I can buy a reasonable 5-10Kw turbine setup in Scotland let me know. #EnergyIndependence #renewables #solarpower #offgrid #windturbine

  9. @MissConstrue
    They deny science, resulting in a #Covid pandemic in Term 1 & a #Measles outbreak in Term-2 after putting a Heroine Junkie in charge of the #CDC.

    They deny #ClimateChange, so they abolish the #EPA & deny new #WindTurbine construction.

    They're #Racists, so they shutter #USAID.

    And now they desperately try to distract from the #Epstein Files by saying, "The DOW broke 50K, so all those billionaires who visited #EpsteinIsland are doing GREAT! *That's* what we should be focused on!"

  12. ExaWind Simulation

    Large-scale computational fluid dynamics simulations face many challenges. Among them is the need to capture both large physical scales–like those of Earth’s atmospheric boundary layer–and small scales–like those of tiny eddies moving around a wind-turbine blade. Capturing all of these scales for a problem like four wind turbines in a wind farm requires using the full computing power of every processor in a large supercomputer. That’s the level of power behind the simulation visualized in this video. The results, however, are stunning. (Video and image credit: M. da Frahan et al.)

  14. So, the Crane Estate is the place I based my #SolarPunkSunday microfiction piece on. While it doesn't have the #SolarArray of Star Island or a #WindTurbine (yet), it is making good use of a cistern that was installed there by the original owner -- which catches rainwater off the roof for future use! Also, there was a wind turbine on nearby Eagle Hill, but it was damaged in 2018 by an electrical fire, and is being torn down rather then repaired. However, both Eagle Hill and Castle Hill would be good places to catch sea breezes from the Atlantic Ocean!

    The Trustees of Reservation Have A Mission…

    November 22, 2011

    "When Chicago industrialist Richard T. Crane, Jr. built his palatial summer home in 1928, he planned carefully for the estate’s water needs, using state-of-the-art technology-after all, the Cranes made their fortunes manufacturing plumbing supplies. As part of a plan that included wells throughout the estate, he arranged to harvest rainwater from the roof of the Great House and store it in an underground cistern next door.

    "Over the years, that cistern was forgotten, says Robert Murray, superintendent of the Crane Estate, as water lines easily brought potable water up Castle Hill. The echoing chamber stood empty, just below the surface, for perhaps 60 years, until plans got underway for a major replanting on the Allee-the storied tree-lined lawn that rolls from the Great House down to the sea.

    " 'As we were planning for the Allee restoration, we knew that we had to make provisions for irrigation in the event of a mandatory town-wide water ban,' Murray says. A drought would be the undoing of the substantial investment in new trees along the half-mile landscape. The organization estimates they could collect 180,000 gallons of rainwater a year from the roof-enough to take care of those young trees until they can stand on their own.

    "The cistern revival is symbolic of a rethinking of the mission and goals of the Trustees of Reservations, a 120-year-old organization dedicated to preserving and protecting more than 100 special places in Massachusetts-some 20 of which are found on the North Shore. It was one of the first land trust organizations in the country, so shifting its time-honed methods wasn’t a natural move. But in response to changing times that demand more agile environmental action, the Trustees launched its 2017 Strategic Plan to make the organization more relevant in an age of eco-upheaval. The emphasis on the environment is not just a feel-good plan-the Trustees have 75 miles of coastline property that they are the first to admit could very well be radically altered by global warming."

    [...]

    "These properties feature, in a relatively small geographic area, a range of natural, cultural, and historic resources that are representative of the Trustees’ broader network of properties: historic structures like the Great House on Castle Hill, the Paine House on Greenwood Farms, and the Old House at Appleton Farms; important historical collections; significant natural and planned landscapes; coastal habitats, grasslands, marshlands, and agricultural lands."

    In a stunning display of #technological prowess, China has completed the construction of the #worldslargest wind #turbine, a 607-foot titan capable of producing 26 megawatts of power, further solidifying its position as a global leader in #renewableenergy.

  17. I am looking for fellow social science scholars on wind power.

    I am preparing an article about public participation in environmental assessment in Flanders and the Netherlands.

    The dataset of publicly available comments is rich enough for additional publications, though that requires teamwork.

  21. Klimakiller Windrad? Wenn das stimmt, ist der Föhn in deinem Bad ein Kohlekraftwerk.

    Windenergie hat einen CO₂-Rucksack aus der Produktion – wie jede Technik. Aber: Dieser ist schnell „abgearbeitet“. Eine moderne Windanlage gleicht ihre Emissionen je nach Standort bereits nach wenigen Monaten aus – und produziert dann jahrzehntelang nahezu emissionsfrei Strom.

    Zum Vergleich: Ein Braunkohlekraftwerk „rechnet sich“ nie – es pustet für jede Kilowattstunde über 1000 g CO₂ in die Luft.

    Fazit: Wer das Klima schützen will, kommt an Wind nicht vorbei. Auch in Sachsen.

  27. Die #Windenergie-Potenzialanalyse für #Mogadischu, #Somalia, ergab, dass die durchschnittliche #Windgeschwindigkeit auf 10 m Höhe bei 4,49 m/s und auf 100 m Höhe bei 6,20 m/s liegt. Mit einer durchschnittlichen #Windenergiedichte von 302,32 W/m² auf 100 m wurde der #VESTAS V172-7,2MW als geeignetste #Windturbine identifiziert. Diese Ergebnisse zeigen das Potenzial für #Windkraftwerke in einer Region, die bisher stark auf #fossileBrennstoffe angewiesen ist.

  29. Historically Undeveloped #SearsIsland Now Threatened by #Maine’s #WindTurbine Project

    By Seamus Othot
    November 20, 2023

    "The State of Maine intends to develop the untouched Sears Island in #Searsport to build and ship offshore wind turbines, according to Downeast lawmakers who oppose the controversial project.

    "'It is the largest undeveloped uninhabited causeway accessible island on the eastern coast of the United States,' said Rep. Lynne Williams (D-Bar Harbor) in her letter defending Rep. Reagan Paul’s (R-Winterport) proposal to stop the development of Sears Island.

    "The lawmakers see the Sears Island project as a negative environmental effect of Maine’s offshore wind plans, which are supposed to lower Maine’s greenhouse gas emission and thereby forestall anthropogenic global warming.

    "The development of offshore wind turbines also has the potential to impact Maine’s lobster and haddock fisheries, according to scientific studies collected and distributed to media by the New England Fishermen’s Stewardship Association (#NEFSA).

    "Rep. Paul’s proposal, which was appealed on Thursday’s meeting of Maine’s legislative council, would have granted a conservation easement for land on Sears Island that is not privately owned.

    "This would have stopped the development of 100 acres of the 940 acre island.

    "The appeal failed, with a vote of five-five. The four republicans on the council voted for the bill, along with Sen. Mattie Daughtry (D-Cumberland). The rest of the Democratic leaders opposed the bill.

    "Rep. Williams argued that, in addition to its #ecological value, and its sentimental value as untouched #wilderness for the people of her district, Sears Island ought to be preserved for its #historical value.

    "'The island is rich with #indigenous #Wabanaki history and American history from the Revolutionary War that deserves to be preserved and protected as well,' said Paul.

    "Without Paul’s bill, there is no legislation preventing Maine’s offshore wind industry from industrializing the island.

    "A similar bill, proposed by Rep. Tiffany Strout (R-Harrington), was appealed at the same council session as Paul’s, but, like Paul’s, it failed.

    "Rep. Strout’s bill would have helped Maine retain its Lobster Management Area One if it is auctioned off to company’s building offshore wind turbines."
