Electricity is something most people take for granted and don’t really have any idea how it’s generated. They just flip a light switch or plug into an outlet and pay the monthly bills for the service. This is amazing considering the fact that people lived without electricity for thousands of years. Even though we’ve only had this luxury for less than 200 years, most of us would have a hard time living without it. If something catastrophic happened or if you just want to live “off the grid”, what are some cool ways to provide the power you need for your own home?

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. Read more…
