Alternate Energy Index
Welcome, In this section of my site you will find some
standard and some unusual plans and ideas for alternate energy
sources.
The whole point behind this page
is to give people ideas and ways to generate power for themselves
with more ways than just the more common methods of wind turbine
generators, solar electric panels and retail type engine
driven generators.
Basic Generator Battery
Charger
Simple Gas Engine driving
a car
alternator to charge a battery
that powers a 12vdc to 110 vac
power inverter for emergencies
Compressed Air Power Plant
Systems
Powered directly or by
compressed air
supplied by wind turbines.
Simple mini power supply systems
Hot Water Engines
Powered by solar heated
water panels or other source of hot water.
Outputs
possible: Hot water, LP air
Low
Voltage DC, 110/220 VAC
Air motors
Simple designs anyone with a
lathe and
some are possible without it
Designed to work with the mini plant
systems or other rotary
input systems
The Bobble Generator System
A very simple
slow speed generator design. It's based on the Freelights bike light
system. This can be scaled up to practically whatever size you want or
need.
Minto Wheels +
modifications?
Mr. Minto's
Wonderwheel and some
possible modifications and
alternatives
designed to increase the normal slow
speed for
more power
Would it
work?
The power sources
for these ideas are gravity and magnets. Will any of them actually work?
Who knows? Standard physics says they probably won't. What do
you think?
Wind
Power
Wind can provide
mechanical
or electrical power.
Shown here are
the windturbines
I have built.
