Separate names with a comma.
Your opinion, but I don't consider multiple GW of installed PV to be vapor ware. First solar had 1GW installed early last year and manufactured...
At the manufacturing cost level, they (First Solar / Nanosolar) already have. In fact, First Solar claims that they reached that benchmark a...
Probably? Atmospheric CO2 is unequivocally increasing because of human activity. Humans emitting 26+ gigatonns of CO2 a year from burning fossil...
It's not about torque, it's about power under the curve - I'll take a nice flat torque curve over one that peaks significantly at low or high RPMs...
It is likely be a record based on trends and data I've seen so far. We'll see if it actually turns out that way or not - have another 10 months!
The original Dodge/Chrysler Caravan minivan was speced with a 4cyl engine that produced a whopping 100hp. My parents had one and we'd load it up...
The Leaf will come with a navigation system that identifies charging locations. Yes, those charging stations will likely be fairly sparse...
Not only that, but trying to maximize torque at low RPM in a diesel usually ends up with higher emissions, so I suspect that with modern, "clean"...
Tell you what - let's put those on my WRX instead where I know they'll fit perfectly. :) But seriously - I think with that much offset and the...
Getting off-topic, but I wonder why they didn't offset the turbines to the prevailing wind direction instead of having them all line up in columns...
Even if buying MDF/particle board, it's a good idea to get used stuff, as most of the formaldehyde offgassing occurs when it's newer, so the older...
Interesting - we should install a bunch of wind farms off the coast of northern California where fog has decreased 30% over the past century and...
Well, it will vary depending on a lot of variables (insulation - indoor/outdoor temps, etc). But if you ran a basic electric heater (~1200w), you...
Love the AE86 - very clean, down to the Home Depot spoiler. ;) Always wanted one. Looks like it's been modded right!
This forum is filled with Priuses - let's see some pics of your AE86 and S2000 which appear to be a bit more interesting. :)
When you've got a variety of panels in your array, I'd suggest looking at micro inverters like the ones from Enphase. The micro inverters...
Great prices! Wish I was in a position to modify my Prius...
Per watt, inverters are typically $1/watt or less. Wholesale prices on new panels are $2-3, so I think panels are still the most expensive per...
Found a couple articles on how "small" scale PV solar is taking off, especially in California. Instead of building huge solar systems in the...
Nice data. Would be interesting to get some data based on how much air flow the panel has, by varying mounting height. What's your setup like -...
