I do not know why the solar array designed by Pyron Solar has not become a major
energy source. With an output of 1 megawatt for 3.1 acres of land use it seems
an obvious alternative.

Depends where you are and the colour of your skin sometimes......




Phoebe Greenwood – Guardian.co.uk March 14, 2012

Two large solar panels jut out of the barren landscape near Imneizil in the
Hebron hills. The hi-tech structures sit incongruously alongside the tents and
rough stone buildings of the Palestinian village, but they are fundamental to
life here: they provide electricity.

Imneizil is not connected to the national electricity grid. Nor are the vast
majority of Palestinian communities in Area C, the 62% of the West Bank
controlled by Israel. The solar energy has replaced expensive and clunky
oil-powered generators.

According to the Israeli authorities, these solar panels – along with six others
in nearby villages – are illegal and have been slated for demolition.

Nihad Moor, 25, has three small children. The family live in a two-room tent
kitted out with a fridge, TV and very old computer. She also has a small
electric butter churn, which she uses to supplement her husband's small income
from sheep farming.

"The kids get sick all the time. At the moment, because of a change in the
weather, they all have colds. Without electricity I wouldn't even be able to see
to help them when they need to use the [outdoor] toilet at night," Moor says. "I
don't want to imagine what life would be like here if [the panels] were
demolished."

Imneizil's solar system was built in 2009 by the Spanish NGO Seba at a cost of
€30,000 to the Spanish government. According to the Israeli authorities, it was
built without a permit.

Guy Inbar, a spokesperson for the Israeli authorities in the West Bank,
explains: "International aid is an important component in improving and
promoting the quality of life of the Palestinian population but this does not
grant immunity for illegal or unco-ordinated activity."

The problem for Palestinian communities here is that permission to build any
infrastructure is very hard to come by. According to figures from the civil
administration quoted by the pressure group Peace Now, 91 permits were issued
for Palestinian construction in Area C between 2001 and 2007. In the same
period, more than 10,000 Israeli settlement units were built and1,663
Palestinian structures demolished.

The Jewish settlements in Area C are connected to the national water and
electricity grids. But most Palestinian villages are cut off from basic
infrastructure, including water and sewage services. Imneizil, which borders the
ultra-religious settlement of Beit Yatir, currently has nine demolition orders
on various structures, including a toilet block and water cistern for the
school.

Comet ME is an Israeli NGO trying to circumvent these crippling restrictions on
Palestinian development by harnessing Hebron's abundant natural energy sources –
wind and sun.

Funded largely by the German government, the organisation has already provided
tens of Palestinian villages with electricity through solar panels and wind
turbines. Its goal is to reach all villages in the southern Hebron area by the
end of 2013.

"In technical terms it's do-able, but it depends on Israeli policies," says Elad
Orian, Comet ME's founder. "Power is a human right, like housing and education,"
he says. "We deal with providing basic energy services. Renewable energy
provides the best route to do it."

The green energy solution has its flaws. At a cost of around $4,500 per family,
it is expensive. Nor does it generate enough electricity to sustain a community.
But it has offered a lifeline to the 150,000 Palestinians living in Area C's
impoverished communities.

However, it will become increasingly difficult to convince donors that
alternative energy is worth investing in if the expensive technology they are
funding is destroyed. After the order issued against the Imneizil solar panels
in September, six alternative energy systems built by Comet ME in Hebron have
received demolition orders.

A legal fight waged by Rabbis for Human Rights has succeeded in suspending, but
not lifting, the demolition of Imneizil's panels. The German foreign office has
launched an intense diplomatic effort to save the others in nearby villages.

One UN expert, speaking anonymously as they are not authorised to talk to the
media, believes the crackdown on the alternative energy movement by the Israelis
is part of a deliberate strategy in Area C. "From December 2010 to April 2011,
we saw a systematic targeting of the water infrastructure in Hebron, Bethlehem
and the Jordan valley," the source said. "Now, in the last couple of months,
they are targeting electricity. Two villages in the area have had their
electrical poles demolished.

"There is this systematic effort by the civil administration targeting all
Palestinian infrastructure in Hebron. They are hoping that by making it
miserable enough, they [the Palestinians] will pick up and leave."

According to UN research, that is happening. Ten out of 13 Palestinian
communities living in Area C surveyed by the Office for the Co-ordination of
Humanitarian Affairs in 2011 reported that families had already left their land
as a result of Israeli policies. Ali Mohamed Hraizat, 49, head of Imneizil's
village council, fears that if the solar panels are destroyed, his community
will see an exodus.

"We've been here since 1948. We try to stay and maintain our lives, but people
will leave if the electricity is cut off," he says. "They are used for light for
their children to study by and for televisions. They will move into town. The
solar panel isn't doing any harm … I just don't see the point in demolishing
it."

I'll add BP to the list of companies who rattled my cage feigning interest in
developing my patented SuperTurbine(R) multi-rotor wind energy technology. 
Google is also on the list.  They call you, bother you, take your valuable time
and attention, act like they are going to fund, grant, invest, or help in some
way, then disappear.  Same with ARPA-E, DOE, Kleiner-Perkins, NASA, NREL, and
you can go on down the list.

As independently tested by Windtesting.com and author Paul Gipe, Multi-Rotor
SuperTurbines clearly produce more power at any diameter than any other method. 
The main thing holding up mass-deployment of SuperTurbine has been fine-tuning
the overspeed protection, since a more powerful turbine is a "be careful what
you wish for" situation when you are in an 80 mph wind!

In wind energy, overspeed protection is not the main thing, it's the only thing.
:)

I have told the big-talker companies and agencies all to take a hike, and stop
delaying the work I need to do to develop it.  With half-a-brain and two hands,
a person unfettered by bureaucracy can out-innovate the largest
multi-million-dollar "all-the-King's-horses" research effort.

The key is to take action every day and don't waste time yakking about it or
producing endless rams of paperwork.
We can test more configurations in one afternoon of 50 mph winds than you could
get funding for testing with years of paperwork.   Heck it's far easier to build
the turbine and test it than it is to even qualify to start filling out
paperwork for one more grant, that again, takes you off-course, with more
people-pleasing and paperwork.

Spending all ones' time applying for research grants is about as conducive to
actual success as endlessly standing in an unemployment line to advance one's
career.  After a while, a truly dedicated innovator figures out there are very
few competent people in the this world and most are just faking it, trying to
fit in.  Bureaucracy can easily slow the effort rather than helping to advance
it.  Once you're sucked-in, it can be hard to tell the difference.  Applying for
one more government grant can easily be just one more way to delay actual
product development.  Oh well, you learn and move on.  Not letting the endless
quagmire slow one down has got to be the first lesson a successful person
learns.
:)

Kevin Kamps, Beyond Nuclear joins Thom Hartmann. More than a year into the
nuclear crisis at Fukushima - radiation levels have now reached their highest
point yet. What does all this mean - and what should nuclear supporters in
America be taking away from the continuing crisis?

When you have the likes of TEPCO and The New York Times conceding the
seriousness of the situation after denying it for so long...THEN you know it's
serious!........


Pools are 100 feet above the ground and are completely
open to the atmosphere because the reactor buildings were
demolished by explosions. The pools could possibly topple or collapse
from structural damage coupled with another powerful earthquake.
Huffington Post

The New York Times said, "What passes for normal at the Fukushima Daiichi plant
today would have caused shudders among even the most sanguine of experts before
an earthquake and tsunami set off the world's second most serious nuclear crisis
after Chernobyl. Fourteen months after the accident, a pool brimming with used
fuel rods and filled with vast quantities of radioactive cesium still sits on
the top floor of a heavily damaged reactor building, covered only with plastic."

Right after Chernobyl blew its top, Edward Teller said on the ABC Evening News
in late April 1986, "The chances of a real calamity at a nuclear power station
are infinitesimally small. But should it happen, the consequences are impossible
to imagine." The plume from the burning graphite at Chernobyl initially traveled
in a northwest direction toward Sweden, Finland and Eastern Europe, exposing the
public to levels up to 100 times the normal background radiation.




Hope Burwell wrote, "On my first trip to Chernobyl in November 2000, I spent
three days touring schools in Cherikov and the even more contaminated areas of
the Mogilev district. Then we traveled to children's hospitals in Minsk. What I
saw there still shows up in nightmares: children with eyes in the sides of their
heads, and children with no eyes at all, children with fingers that look like
toes and children whose genitals are so poorly formed one can't determine their
sex. Those nightmares are audible with infant wails like the cries of wounded
wild animals.".......



.......No one wants to imagine the future and what will happen even if the
situation does not get worse. Radiation is pouring out of Fukushima and that
radiation is hitting the streets of Los Angles quite hard. In April 2012
environmental journalist and LA Weekly contributor Michael Collins, an
independent who has tested over 1500 samples since the Fukushima earthquake of
2011, was shocked to find that radiation levels in the falling rain over L.A.
measured five times above normal.....contd
