I want to e-mail my principle with a proposal to get a solar-panel for the school. In the e-mail I need to have a plan already laid out. Does anyone know of any organizations that help schools get solar panels?

Im really interested in trying to make renewable energy, helping with global warming, and trying to conserve energy. I really like topics like solar panels, "go green", etc. I saw a major that was energy engineering and that was perfect, but just at one college. what other majors are like that? please help!

Hi, I’ve heard that there are wind powered generator that also have solar panels?
The idea is to have enhanced reliability.
Do you know where can I find information about it? Anywhere in the world is fine!
Thank you!

My school does not have a lot of funding and we are always trying to do things to raise money. Keeping this in mind I need to know what to do to start a green club I don’t really know what I am doing and pretty much all I know is that i love the environment, I am in 8th grade and i made my house green by getting solar panels and a half gas half electric Prius! Please I REALLY need your help!!!

how much power is generated with solar panels? also please give me links for that information.

and how much would the costs be for this alternative energy source?

My girlfriend and I have just bought a camper van, and we would like to hook up some roll up solar panels to a spare car battery so we can store energy in it to use with small electrical appliances.

I have no idea about how this could be done, if it is even possible. I would be very grateful for any help on how I might achieve this.

Thanks
Martin.
Thanks for all your replies!

The plan is to use the other battery to run small electrical appliances, phone charger, music etc, not to charge the actual car battery. I should have made that clearer to start with, I apologise. But your replies are still all helpful!

I was thinking of using the roll up solar panels that are available, does anyone know where I could buy a kit online that would contain the right battery and other components that are necessary?

Thanks for all your help!

I’ve installed some solar panels near the ground, but even though they’re protected from the wind, snow is building up on them. I’d like to install some deflectors to channel the wind up and over the back end of the panels so that less snow builds up on the surface. The strip of panels is about 70′ long.

Any ideas?

Thanks very much.

We’ve been considering solar panels for a while now, and we’d like to know a little more about them. Please answer to the best of your knowledge. Thanks.

Hydrogen, Ethanol, Vegetable Oil, Electricity, Solar Panels?

I would like to get solar panels for my house. What type should I get? Also where should I shop from? Is there one kind that is better than others? Does the government have any rebates for making a switch?
