Here’s an interesting article I came across whilst on my internet travels. The new ‘Walking Solar House‘. The concept is to allow a person to live a peaceful nomadic life… on the move by means of actuated legs attached to the housing module. Energy is collected from a variety of platforms including; solar cells and small windmills. Other eco-systems included with the portable solar house include; rain water collection and solar heated hot water. A small greenhouse can also be added to the rear of the ‘house on legs’ module.

The brainiacs over at MIT claim to have discovered a way of storing solar power. They have effectively built a sun battery.

In one hour, the amount of Sun which hits the face of the Earth would provide enough energy to power the whole World for one year.

To utilize all this ‘free and abundant energy‘, they have figured out a way of efficiently splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using Earth abundant materials. MIT also claim they can safely and easily extract hydrogen using water at atmospheric pressure and room temperature.

I recently read an interesting article on the pros and cons of using solar power. Why is it, that whenever the term ’solar power’ is used, companies such as the BBC discuss technologies which only use solar panels, photovoltaic cells, or solar thermal collectors.

Other applications of solar power include heliostats, solar chimneys, Stirling engines, and of course solar cooking.

Solar cooking is a method of cooking food and boiling water using only the power of the sun and a solar oven or solar cooker. Solar cookers use no other fuel source except for the energy emitted from the sun.


Solar cookers concentrate the sun’s energy using various techniques such as the box, parabolic or trough design. All these designs in essence do the same job in that they heat food or boil water by concentrating the Sun’s energy onto a pot filled with food or water.

Solar cooking can be used to cook almost any kind of food, pasteurize water (water heated to 65C - safe to drink). The process of solar pasteurization kills 99% of the germs present in contaminated water.

The popularity of solar cooking is increasing in many market sectors, in particular the 3rd World where daily cooking for many requires fire, fuel gathering and frequent attention to food being cooked and the added cost of buying in conventional fuels such as coal, firewood or fossil fuels is forcing people to recognize the advantages and benefits of Solar Cooking.

Over 2 billion people, a third of the world’s population, rely on wood-fuelled fires to cook food.

What is free energy? Most people immediately think of the overused and misconceived phrase - ‘the perpetual
motion machine’ and some mad professor ‘locked’ away in his basement building some doomsday device. However, although a true perpetual machine may be impossible, a machine which taps into an unknown energy source is not.

A preferred definition for the term ‘free energy’ would be defined as:-

Energy collected from a source which has not yet been recognized by contemporary science.

In order to understand this more, the definition requires some more explanation.

A plethora of ‘free energy’ fields and waves exist, they are all around us, under us, on top of us, and inside us. For instance, scientists have been trying to measure tachyons for years, it may sound like something from Star Trek, but tachyons really do exist, especially in the realms of quantum field theory.

Billions of invisible tachyons pass through each and every one of us every second, so believing we can interact with these energy fields, in the same way one would step through a puddle and cause ripples isn’t outside our realms of possibility. After all, we cannot touch the feeling hate, or taste fear, does that mean they don’t exist! Perhaps emotions aren’t real after all, perhaps we really live in a holographic Universe.
