Our Governator is attending the Austria world initiative on climate change. He wants us to know that we have "2000 Gigabytes of clean energy" waiting to be developed if only the permit process can be expedited. Lucky us. Listen to the video at about t = 2:20 and rejoice...
Hello there,
I am interested in renewable or clean or new energy sources. What branch of physics that I need to focus on in order to get a deep understanding on this? Also, what prerequisites do I need?
p.s. I am a self taught student, so I don't have any academic advisor
If you search the net with the question: "Can clean energy replace fossil fuels?" then no clear answer is given. On the website https://blog.arcadia.com/top-7-questions-youve-asked-google-renewable-energy/ it is said:
Yes! However, despite falling costs, wind and solar only produce a little...
Hi, everybody. I did an undergrad in computer engineering, and am currently happily in a software development position, but I've always had a passion for physics and could see myself loving being in a position where I'm working in clean energy. I've spent lots of free time learning about and...
Experience in the fertilizer industry, with focus on environmental issues and energy recovery, clean technologies, process design and simulation, GHG balance. Published several studies on low carbon technologies as well as on Kyoto Protocol Communications.
I was reading an article today about how Shell is discussing the move towards "cleaner" energy. This got me thinking.
Eventually, most companies will be forced to move towards renewables as public opinion and natural resources become stacked against them. Many large oil and coal conglomerates...
Hello all. I'm pretty disorganised and not very clever so I thought I'd ask you all...
If you charge an electric car from a power station run on fossil fuel is it cleaner than a petrol car?
I'm wondering after looking at the energy loss in converting fossil fuel to electricity and then in...
I make no promises:
I came up with this idea for a new kind of nuclear fusion reactor. I do not want to give off any clues to how it works so I am going to be as vague as possible.
I think it could be a viable means to nuclear fusion becoming... well, breakeven. I have by no means tested it...
Hello,
I am incredibly interested in Physics, so that is what I am majoring in Physics. However, I also want to do work in clean energy resources.
Can I get a job in clean energy with a Physics degree? If so, how?
Hey, currently I am a high school graduate going into college in the fall, but that isn't why I am here. There has been this question eating at the back of my head. Is there some way to induce an electromagnetic field, that could then induce a current in a wire or other some such medium, to...
Hi, I am a junior in high school starting the college process. I want to go into engineering focusing on clean energy. For example, designing windmills or fuel cell engines. My dream job would be working for a company that builds clean energy plants. What major should I pursue? Are there any...
So, here's the situation:
I'm a second-year engineering student at a not-exactly-prestigious school (Wright State University for the morbidly curious), and my current plan is to carry my education all the way through to a Master of Science in Renewable and Clean Energy. Do you really think...
Ok, as usual I might have gotten a concept wrong here, I usually do. If that is the case then please point it out to me.
The "natural" state of hydrogen and oxygen is to combine to H2O. That is, if you put them in proximity they react together to form said molecules. Now, we can use energy to...
