Part 1

 Reference to the Hybrid Power Systems that is promoted through US Department of Energy networking:

There are cascaded limitations for using solar PV and Wind Turbines as shown in the above presentation.


Major disadvantages of traditional Wind Turbines:

Threat to Wildlife.

The needed Velocity of Natural Air cannot be predicted. No Power during low Velocity and major damage during very high Wind as during Strom.

Not suited to homes, cities, and towns. Suited to Coastal regions requiring Overhead T&D network to supply power to end-users.

Large Structures that cannot be part of a building or Landscape.

Extensive damage and safety hazards during Tornadoes, hurricanes, cyclones, repairs, etc. 

Disadvantages of using Solar-pv at homes:

The very high environmental and economic cost of manufacturing solar-PV modules, panels, tiles, etc.

Sun intensity and sunlight depend upon Weather therefore require expensive power storage for longer hours of standby power supply.

Environmental benefits of using Solar-PV are cancelled using toxic materials and hazardous products during the manufacturing process of solar photovoltaic; transportation, making, and installation of solar-PV panels.

Solar PV panels require a large flat surface that is specific to Sunrise and Sunset. Sun tracking is very expensive.

The disadvantage of using Traditional Standby Generator:

Standby Electricity at about 30% fuel efficiency and wastefully burning Fossil Fuels in standard Generators and storage in the bank of Batteries are cancelling most environmental and economic benefits.  

We propose a true and greenest:

 ‘Hybrid Micro-Generators system”. We would like to discuss with the responsible officer our Patented Hybrid Solar Wind Micro-Generators to replace an artificial hybrid system using individual solar PV and Traditional Wind turbines as shown in the above presentation.

Furthermore, we are proposing that Stand-by Electrical Power from the traditional generator as shown should be replaced by our proposed Combined Heat, Power, and Cooling Micro-Generators.

In addition to the above, we propose that single input energy to operate our proposed CHPC should be Biofuel rather than fossil fuels. Needed Biofuel should be created using locally collected Organic and Perishable waste and cut-down Vegetation such as Grass and Leaf etc.

The needed standby fuel for the proposed CHPC should only be LPG or CNG. With the single greenest input Fuel three Useful Building Services are Electric, Heating, and or Cooling.

Major environmental and economic benefits will be earned by all participants from our proposed IPRs for supplying THREE GREENEST Affordable building services of Power, Heating, and ‘Cooling’ through Underground Smart Energy Tunnels.

The proposed Greenest and most environmentally friendly truly Hybrid Micro-Generator System for supplying three Building Services for Homes and small businesses will offer cascaded Social Values by creating many new small businesses and jobs to assemble: commission and performing after-sale-services.

We like to offer our IPRs with needed Technical and Management Coordination to the US Energy Department and or their appointed Establishment for taking the proposed IPRs to Market to preserve maximum Social Benefits for local end-users and residents of the USA.

Industrial Solar-PV Generators versus Micro-Generators using Concentrated Solar with created high Wind at or near sites of end-users:

My following post is for young environmentally awakened Entrepreneurs to consider the urgent need for expanding Micro-Generations at or near sites of end-users rather than forever depending upon the Industrial Generation which is one of the main factors in causing ever-increasing weather disasters, wasting unaffordable Natural Resources, and transferring national wealth by related exports. I hereby invite the honest Few to join me as we can do what others are failing to do. 

Due to some of the above-mentioned facts, micro-generation using Solar-PV cannot earn needed ROIs for related small businesses or majorities of Users without seeking handouts paid directly or indirectly by Public Funds.

Furthermore, industrial generations using Solar-PV that are fed into National Grid requiring T&D networks that are many miles long lose most of the environmental benefits by transmission losses and wasteful uses of raw materials, metals, energy, water, and productive land on which overheads T&D are erected.

Electric bills of end-users are increased rather than reduced to recover the higher price paid per kWh by owners of the Grid for in-feed Solar PV with higher admin costs and to earn additional ROIs.

Truly Hybrid Micro-Generation of Building Services for Green Houses

Hybrid Wind-Solar Micro-Generation: Utilizing Concentrated Solar Energy in a Pyramid Thermal Chimney, Greenhouse, and DSTB Wind Turbine. This system offers Combined Heat, Power, and cooling Micro-Generation, providing the greenest Power, Heating, and Cooling through an Underground Smart Energy Tunnel to Homes. Additionally, it includes a Biofuel Micro-Generator for supplying fuel to the Combined Heat, Power & Cooling system, using Organic, Perishable, and Vegetative Wastages. To ensure the smooth operation of the system, a Regulator/Correction Battery Bank is also employed.

The Underground Smart Energy Tunnel acts as the backbone for supplying ePower, Heating, and Cooling to the Green Home. The innovative approach lies in our patented concept: 'Concentrated Solar Heat to generate higher velocity Wind' within a simple single Thermal Chimney or Pyramid structure. This unique design eliminates the need for:

  1. Billions of dollars to produce components such as mono-silicon-based solar cells.
  2. Expensive payments to overseas producers of solar cells or Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) owners.
  3. The environmental and economic costs associated with long-distance transmission and distribution from Industrial Generators to end-users.
  4. Constraints on existing small businesses, enabling them to adapt their products, systems, and components for truly hybrid micro-generators and related systems and services.
  5. The creation of new small businesses to assemble, commission, and provide after-sale services at the local level.
  6. Opportunities for local youths to secure employment with just basic engineering and diverse skill sets.
  7. The necessity for building more Central Power Stations.
  8. The negative impact of Central Power Generation on pollution and the wastage of natural resources, including fossil fuels and freshwater.
  9. The burden of high energy bills for end-users.

In conclusion, our innovative Truly Hybrid Micro-Generation system presents a sustainable and cost-effective solution for powering, heating, and cooling Green Houses. It not only reduces financial burdens but also supports local businesses and job creation while minimizing environmental impact. This holistic approach towards micro-generation marks a significant step in the transition to a greener and more sustainable future.
