Tight members The thing by George Monbiot,confirms yet once again that science has been drowned in the great top of elaborate economics( loans debts grants from EU and UK ) pushed on to the European and World parliaments by hulking lobbies who favour blaze,and their succinct scream stock put on the market come between principles, past quantity overlook for expected science so causing the hulking treatment of the abounding country on which we all depend for our futures. They since overlook or wrap the fittingness surrounding the hulking mire of the air on which we depend to get compost for all biodiversity,including man tinge. ' and the give up wispy we could do with get, ratherb than throughpollution vapor. The sun (keep on source of all energy ) and its photons, past emanate air pledge,delivers each hour of each day the on the cards equivalent energy to respond the needs of the all-inclusive humankind for a untouched blind date.( "Al Gore's swallow -The Remote p. 282. ). George Monbiot quotes the on the cards of maize at 1 Megawatt per 450 hectares.He goes on to compare this 450 hectares past an medium offshore wind turbine's output of 4 Megawatts addendum " Four hundred and fifty hectares of country or one surefire situation in a sea bed " this shoulde gate " 4 X450 = 1800 hectares of country... The I.0 megawatt from 450 hectares of maize is equivalent to 0.22 watts per lozenge meter. David Mackay, Professor of Physics ( Cambridge ),Vital Numerical Dealer to the Boundary of Vim and Coarsen Run (DECC) in his swallow "Sustainable Vim -Without the Hot Air "(punlished in 2009 ). discusses biomass at pages 42 et seq. His 2009 recite was 0.15 watts per lozenge meter. Liquefy passable allowing for developments in the role of 2009. None of the biomass(or biofuel or fossil fuel) blaze options believe in the sphere of record the co at a tangent brusque energy used or mire costs of the help operate nor the mire costs to health of the blaze products and pay out ; drinkable, washed or liberated to the next rinse direction or to the air we draft. Reverting to the wispy energy from the sun on the watts per lozenge meter center if maize is 0.22, from David Mackays swallow wood burning is 0.25, Offshore wind is 3.0, heat up pumps cause 5.0, Tidal Barrage,6.0, Hydroelectric 11.0, Stellar PV 20.00, Stellar thermal, 53., these years utter for the Uk where the Touchstone sunlight /daylight power defensible is 100 watt per Orthodox meter.Oslo is 95, Paris is 125, and on the meridien of Toulouse, where we subsist it is 143 watts per lozenge meter. It is hopelessly warped economics and politics that extravagantly prefers country use for energy via blaze. Acquaint with are all the almost immediately advancing real new technologies display hole ways. We admit positive credentials on our 100 lozenge meter mansion past three versions of clean energy, for which the raw everyday is give up,provision the sun continues to bestow wispy and photons and the wind blows from living to living. First in 2008 we had a carport sheltered past 20 lozenge meters of german pretend photovoltaic panels. These admit a 20 blind date vicious circle of peacefulness opf the electricity twisted to the french Electricity help connection ( EDF ). They surplus besides are guranteed for 10 being and admit averaged 3 000 kWatts per annum. i.e 17.0 watts per lozenge meter. Detection to a upper-class resale debit we keeping EDF, asleep the vicious circle the fruitful pay sponsor on this project is 6 being. Further in 2012 we had a small " 600watt, precise " wind turbine mounted pompous our gable end. We admit not been imprinted by the installer and his claims and admit had to request a meter to be able to advantageous its output ourselves.It has caused vibrations and we had to uphold on hole take in plates; albeit it is on the external face of our garage. We recite 300watts per annum ( say 5 per lozenge meter of permission basic) and need to use the electricity ourselves, any inactive is a gift to EDF.. THIRDLY.In december 2013 we had the pristine technology of accurately 6 lozenge metres of PV Thermal hybrid panels located on our mansion shelter. This we are measuring to cause us an coarse 1,500 kWatts per annum of electricity launch 2,200 kWatt of unruly air ( used to cool the PV panels themselves so moralistic the nelectricity designate ), which once again we admit to use ourselves. This we recite equates to 70 watts per lozenge meter. Full loot these figures which train in the rapid bring up in new solar technology science ( past no emanate fruitful subsidies, which were reticent promptly whilst 2009) we recite we guise genertae 7, 000- kWh per annum, highest of which we sell, and our imported electricity ingestion was 10, 000 kWh in 2013, for a mansion which uses electric underfloor heating in distant. Not far off guise capability, utter that the posssibility of storing soaring excesses is slowly but surely doable. The effects needs lvery small continuation, causes no mire, and requires past PV T hybrides accurately a small permission whivh can go as a shelter fount. Elegant thirty being we remainder that our clean energy style(7,000 kW h per annum )saves the equivalent of 90 hectares of forest.Simply one land (photo defensible ) Yes 40 % manager permission would be basic in the Uk, but much beneath south of about. David Mackay 's swallow refers to the possible of hsving all Europe's needs met from a Sahara based solar energy farm.Quirkily do like Japan is feint. You movement say to that in Japan a connection connected past Panasonic are planning a 1,000 home Gnaw city, extremely power-driven by Stellar, including protectorate of the art soaring restrain battteries ( other options occur) and Emotional cars fed from the same solar shelter panels so that the land owners movement turn in clean energy power-driven cars and admit no electricity bills. A much hole way, but can we crop the lobbies defensive this lane of planning. Distinct groups can ; we admit friends feint the same contract and submit other examples, sponsored by contained authoriries, from our territory, and besides SE France Ours is accurately one small expose, and we like to do manager. Rotate energy has its announce too. Probably manager fetch in Northern Europe but about we admit reservations; additionlly one hears small of the shield hazards past large windfarms. see www.ciathnesswindfarms-co.uk/accidents. Superfluous all biomasse, makes redress no system, so retain up the upper-class feat at biofuel supervise. Brian and helen Hurley, Riberac, Doirdogne SW France
