Hi All: ___Not just a welcome but given how many of our topics are linked to renewable energy and/or energy production, Chuck (aka - Delta_Flyer) thought a Renewable Energy Forum would be a great addition and I agreed. The purpose would be more non-automotive in nature but with PHEV’s and EV’s on the horizon, clean and renewable electrical energy production is going to be a larger part of our countries and the world’s energy production mix as time progresses. ___Non-Automotive - Environmental Discussion’s could include a number of items such as zero energy homes, windmill and micro-hydro electrical generation, residential and industrial solar power for heat or electricity production, etc. ___Let’s hope this forum provides an outlet for some of our members (myself included ) who feel clean energy production and use goes beyond just our day to day transportation needs. ___Good Luck ___Wayne
Maybe it should be renamed to the Environmental forum or something like that since sometimes the most envronmentaly friendly choice we may have at a given time might not be renewable (like nuclear power) and clean coal plants.
Thank you! The kind of topics I had in mind include (and NOT limited to...) residential alternative energy, more energy-efficient home appliances, alternative to traveling by car....
