Sun Sets on Solar Rebate
2008-05-15 16:44:00 Who would have thought that a Howard Government Renewable Energy programme would be so successful that the Rudd Government are proposing to throttle it, such that it becomes non viable for many users, potentially putting many businesses up against it after gearing up to implement solar power on peoples houses. Mind boggling. The solar power industry is predicting a dramatic decline in people installing solar panels, causing millions of dollars in lost business and job losses, after the Federal Government made it harder for households to receive an $8000 rebate.Environment Minister Peter Garrett announced in the budget that only households earning less than $100,000 would qualify for the rebate, effective immediately.It follows a surge in applications ? up to seven times more a week, businesses say ? since the Howard government doubled the rebate from $4000 to $8000 a year ago.Clearly this is a budget management exercise rather than sensible public policy. If the government wants to ...

The Lumeta PowerPly solar panels are glued in place on the roof, using adhesives normally used in roofing. So far the method/product is only available for commercial buildings, but we hope an application for private homes will be in the market soon.

EnergĂa Solar en las carreteras británicas
2008-05-07 22:25:00 Me alegro al leer en NovaCiencia lo siguiente: «La Agencia de Carreteras del gobierno británico planea reciclar la energĂa solar recogida en verano por las carreteras del paĂs y utilizarla en invierno para eliminar el hielo de su superficie. Para lograrlo, se instalarán bajo las carreteras unas tuberĂas que recojan esta energĂa solar. La intenciĂłn es evitar que se congelen las carreteras del paĂs y de momento se realizará una prueba piloto, que en caso de Ă©xito, se ampliarĂa a más carreteras. Esta misma tecnologĂa se está probando tambiĂ©n para calentar y refrescar edificios, reducir las facturas de la luz y disminuir las emisiones de gases invernadero. Este proyecto ha sido bautizado como Interseasonal Heat Transfer (IHT), y pretende instalar una red de tuberĂas plásticas rellenas de agua justo debajo de la superficie de la carretera. En verano, cuando la temperatura de las carreteras puede alcanzar los 40ÂşC, el agua se calienta y es bombeada a tuberĂas aisladas ... |
