Exploring everything within renewable energy like solar panels, wind turbines, hydro, geothermal energy, battery technology, and more.
It's the holy grail for the ultimate clean energy power source. Virtually limitless clean power that’s fueled by sea water, and is much safer than the nuclear fission reactors that we have today. What’s not to like? Perhaps that it's always billed as being "30 years away." With all of the breakthrou
There’s been a lot of hype around solid state batteries for years now, but where do things stand today? And how much longer do we have to wait before seeing solid state batteries take hold in the technology we use every day? Let's take a look at the latest research, lithium ion batteries, and John B
Climate change - top 5 myths. At the beginning of last year I released a video about the top EV myths I was seeing over and over in the comments. Well, it’s the start of a new year, so I thought, why not kick things off with a new myths video? But this time, I’ve compiled the top 5 climate change an
Solar panels for home - 1 year later! Ever since I published the video about my solar panel system on my home earlier in the year, and my experience with the installation and energy production I’ve been seeing, I’ve been asked for an update on how it’s going. Let’s take a look at how much energy my
Tesla Solar Roof v3 and why Tesla Energy could be huge. In the third quarter Tesla earnings call, they dropped a lot of great financial news for the company. The announcement of Tesla Solar Roof 3.0 really piqued my interest. The Tesla Energy business has been on the back burner the past couple of y
Ever since I published the video about my solar panel system on my home earlier in the year, and my experience with the installation and energy production I’ve been seeing, I’ve been asked for an update on how it’s going. By a lot of people. Well, it’s time. How much energy production have I been se
Solar Power and renewable energy sources are getting cheaper by the day and in some cases are the cheapest methods for producing electricity. But there’s a major downside that needs to get solved before renewables can really take over.
Thinking of getting solar panels or already have them? You might be looking at a solar battery like a Tesla Powerwall, Sonnen Eco, or LG Chem RESU. How do they work? Why would you want one? How much do they cost? While there’s some good options available, there’s a lot to chew with this one. Let’s s
With Tesla’s recent purchase of Maxwell Technologies, I thought it was a perfect time to take a closer look at the current state of batteries and supercapacitors. As well as what supercapacitors are, why so many people are excited by them, and a wonder material, graphene, that could change ... every
Will the savings you gain from solar panels really pay for the cost of installing the system in the first place? And even more secondary questions come up like, are solar panels difficult or expensive to maintain? How long do solar panels last? Will solar panels work where I live? Those are all ques
