In the process of doing research for an article I did on solar green products, I came across the Stirling air engine. The engine was once called a hot air engine because it requires no internal diesel or fuel to run. Let’s take a deeper look at this unique engine that requires no fuel and has recently been adapted for use on solar collector dishes.

Wind power is the quickly becoming the largest renewable energy platform in the world. You might see these wind turbine generators popping up especially in rural areas. This is a great resource that needs to be tapped into by more companies and individuals at least for partial power use. Wind turbine electricity is very economical, and earth friendly.

There is a selection of alternative green energy systems available. Each are deemed renewable and can produce electricity. However, they are not all equal in their impact on the environment. Some are considered more sustainable than others. Commentators have divided the various options into two types. Solar energy, wind energy and hydro energy form one group while so called ‘earthly sources’ like biofuels and geothermal energy, constitute the second group.

Going green becomes more popular nowadays and one way to implement it is by installing electric solar panels on your rooftops to make electricity. The panels will give you DC voltage and in order to make it applicable for your home appliance you have to invert it to AC voltage.

Using the Sun’s energy to power your home can be split into two categories. There are passive and direct solar power systems. Passive systems generally take advantage of the Sun’s thermal properties to generate heat. Thus solar water systems use the Sun’s heat to make hot water to be used in the home. Creating rooms in the home or Sun traps that absorb thermal rays can also act as a form of heating for the home. However this article is more concerned with the direct use of solar power to create electricity in the home.

Let’s turn to financing in this edition of Green Products. Why financing? To go green, someone has to pay the initial costs, and sometimes these costs are high. With some of the current economic challenges, here are some thoughts
