PV solar power - Era-Energy has started to present local, national and global companies developing, exploring and promoting renewable energy sources. More »

The Earth energy and the beauty

The Earth energy sources - Earth’s energy comes from the original formation of the planet and from radioactive decay of minerals. The geothermal gradient, which is the difference in temperature between the core of the planet and its surface, drives a continuous conduction of thermal energy in the form of heat from the core to the surface.

The power of the water

Hydropower, hydroelectric power or water power is power that is derived from the force or energy of flowing or falling water, which may be harnessed for useful purposes. More »

The power of the wind

The wind power is the ability of air movement to do work. Today, wind energy turbines are used mainly for production of electricity. It is a clean and renewable energy source that can produce enough electricity to power huge areas. More »

The invisible power

The energy of the wind is invisible and so powerful that has allowed humans to exploit the surface of the planet long before the discovering of electricity. More »

 

Resource wars in the era of renewables

December 1, 2012   Alternative battle   No comments
Our energy needs are just dust

Renewable energy sources are slowly pushing away the dependence on traditional energy. Each and every day we break the chains of our reliance on limited in quantity resources. Each and every day the technology improves and we gain more and more energy from the nature without destroying it.

Sometimes we fight wars (with guns or money) for the vital power of fossils no matter what reason for these wars we hide behind. We fight wars the same way our ancestors were fighting for land, food and gold. But we can not fight for the wind or the sun. And as we move ahead with knowledge about the foundations of life, we’re slowing down our acts of ruining them. Energy is probably the basics of our existence, but the way we see it is more like community comfort. When this comfort is granted by non-exhaustible sources will we focus on our internal Universe? Will there be more resource wars on the planet with enough weapons for destruction of several others and total annihilation of life?
