Is Alternative Energy Potent Enough?

November 27, 2009 by Adriana Noton  

The future of the planet depends largely on our ability to tap into alternative energy resources and create successful and long term environmental solutions. There is no doubt that while there have been ample promises over the years the political and ethical debate that has caused progress to trickle instead of surge has the potential to be ongoing. With the planet creeping closer and closer to peril the continued need for championing is much appreciated.

One of the most aggressive issues is the potency of alternative energy. In other words, will it be powerful enough to ensure that power and energy are brought to all of those that need it, even when the demand is sky high. Air conditioners, the longer, darker nights of winter time, and the chronic high demands of industry can pose a threat to the consistency issues.

Are there geographical areas that are more likely to be successful with solar, wind, or other alternative power sources? More than likely there is a greater chance of success along coast lines for three out of four seasons. While the sun may very be a potent energy source in the summer, the wind tends to be rather ineffective during the three basic summer months. Yet during the winter months when there is not enough sun to provide power there is ample wind for generation.

As much as the environment is at stake in the progress of alternative energy, the flip side indicates that the careers of many politicians can be at stake as well. Unfortunately, when you politicize an issue like this one it becomes a campaign platform for some while it becomes a torch to bear for others. If any politician supported the resources it would take build an “experimental” or “initial” system for adequate delivery and the system failed, the political consequences could be huge.

Policies are debated regularly and there is always hope that one politician can find another to be a detriment or the answer to ending the debate. Once there is one politician backing up the plans of another one, it’s much easier to make the chain of response grow.

It is possible that there will come a day when each of us will be responsible to provide our own alternative energy so that we no longer need to rely on traditional forms of production and delivery. We would equip our homes with the necessary equipment to power our own environments. This is an interesting theory and could be easily presentable. However, one would have to wonder how it would impact renters or those with significant financial issues.

All hope is not lost despite the political platforms. The potential for biased electricity delivery causes some concerns but overall the constant need for the people to see their planet at least partially restored is pushing everyone to find good solutions. More than ever we need to see to it that the planet’s needs are not lost in our own needs.

Recently a totally new design for the wind turbine was created and then connected successfully to the power grid. This turbine is known as floating turbine and has already been proven to be more cost effective for initial as well as chronic use. Since alternative energy is the single most important aspect of saving the planet from the human race, the continued push for complete energy conversion must not cease. In time we should see true conversions from traditional energy sources.
