Generators from WIND like a windmill in yer backyard, or from streams can also create power. I am not a fan of those oversized windmill farms because they are an eyesore..And they really do not produce much electric for every eyesore either.
Solar panels have the problem that non bright sunny days produce almost Nothing..
I use a high 18 seer Heat Punp at my home for the heating and cooling. It works well. Keeps my energy consumption down as well as my utility bills.
Now here is a thought.. How about an electric vehicle that produces its own sustaining source of electric by using an onboard generator/alternator just like we have some pretty powerful amperage.. ???? That would make a battery car self sustaining..
Right now what is NOT being talked about is HOW are we going to provide all the extra electric to power all these electric cars when we do not have the electric needed currently to prevent all those blackouts and brownouts every single year????
I guess I don't like being forced to do something against my will especially when I have a perfectly good, still brand new looking 7 year old vehicle that averages about 30 MPG and is gasoline..
THIS whole thing going on now is nothing more than POLITICAL in nature because it is not a choice, they are trying to FORCE peopole this way because of SIERRA CLUB like mentality.
Forcing people to do something against their will is never a good thing and that is the pther reason why there is so much resistance... It is synonomous with leftist ideology...
Anyway, why don't the geniuses who design these electric vehicles also build into them a self charging system ?
I had the idea some years ago about pace makers that instead of having to remove one when the batteries got weak and then install a whole new one, why don;t they make them so they can be recharged and not have to go thru a surgery to replace it?
I talked to the heart doctor about it.. I understand that today they are available that one doesn;t have to have the whole unit removed and replaced.. Progress.
Anyway, that's is my five cents on where we are with save the planet cars.. Make the batteries stay charged while driving and ya might have something there...
