Hydrogen storage
Utility scale underground liquid hydrogen storage Methods of hydrogen storage for subsequent use span many approaches, including high pressures, cryogenics, and chemical compounds that reversibly release H2 upon heating. Underground hydrogen storage is useful to provide grid energy storage for intermittent energy sources, like wind power, as well as providing fuel for transportation, particularly for ships and airplanes. Most research into hydrogen storage is focused on storing hydrogen as a lightweight, compact energy carrier for mobile applications. Liquid hydrogen or slush hydrogen may be used, as in the Space Shuttle. Compressed hydrogen, by comparison, is stored quite differently. Onboard hydrogen storage[edit] Targets were set by the FreedomCAR Partnership in January 2002 between the United States Council for Automotive Research (USCAR) and U.S. Established technologies[edit] Compressed hydrogen[edit] Liquid hydrogen[edit] Proposals and research[edit] Chemical storage[edit] [edit]

Fuel Cells Information, Fuel Cells Facts, Fuel Cells Technology
According to many experts, we may soon find ourselves using fuel cells to generate electrical power for all sorts of devices we use every day. A fuel cell is a device that uses a source of fuel, such as hydrogen, and an oxidant to create electricity from an electrochemical process. Much like the batteries that are found under the hoods of automobiles or in flashlights, a fuel cell converts chemical energy to electrical energy. All fuel cells have the same basic configuration; an electrolyte and two electrodes. But there are different types of fuel cells, based mainly on what kind of electrolyte they use. Many combinations of fuel and oxidant are also possible. Fuel cells have three main applications: transportation, portable uses, and stationary installations. In the future, fuel cells could power our cars, with hydrogen replacing the petroleum fuel that is used in most vehicles today. Stationary fuel cells are the largest, most powerful fuel cells.
The Anatomy of a Perfect Landing Page - Formstack - StumbleUpon
Placement and Content 7. Keep It Above the Fold The space a visitor sees without having to scroll is where the most important parts of the webpage should be. 8. Optimize a landing page for conversion over time. 9. Implementing motivational speeches, videos of user testimonials, and product images into a home page can have a positive impact on viewers, as well as give shoppers an extra push to look further into a product. Bellroy uses great imagery and videos on many of their pages. 10. Links connecting the user to a bunch of other sites or pages will distract them and have a negative impact on conversions. This landing page is designed well, but look at all those header links getting in the way of the message!

Pumped-storage hydroelectricity - Wikipedia, the free encycloped
Pumped storage is the largest-capacity form of grid energy storage available, and, as of March 2012, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) reports that PSH accounts for more than 99% of bulk storage capacity worldwide, representing around 127,000 MW.[1] PSH reported energy efficiency varies in practice between 70% and 80%,[1][2][3][4] with some claiming up to 87%.[5] Overview[edit] Power distribution, over a day, of a pumped-storage hydroelectricity facility. Green represents power consumed in pumping; red is power generated. At times of low electrical demand, excess generation capacity is used to pump water into the higher reservoir. The relatively low energy density of pumped storage systems requires either a very large body of water or a large variation in height. Along with energy management, pumped storage systems help control electrical network frequency and provide reserve generation. The first use of pumped storage was in the 1890s in Italy and Switzerland. See also[edit]
Quadrupling the World GDP by 2010
The solution for the political-economic problems of Africa, Argentina, Afghanistan, and other nations Editor's note: This is the second in a series of articles by financial futurists Karun Philip [KP] and Richard S. Kirby [RK]. Together in a series of books, essays and stories they are laying the foundations for a rapid redefinition of financial civilization. Introduction Karun Philip and I (RK) continue to write collaborative articles on better worlds of money -- new worlds of money made available to the financial world immediately. We are economic realists, and yet we are economic idealists at the same time! The world needs more money because it needs more liquid love. Actually, though, these assumptions are in continuous evolution, and the whole theory of money -- a remarkable, innovative social invention -- can be seen as nature’s way of liberating human potential by complex systems of exchange and trust. The theory of capital But the theory of capital is itself in constant change.
Summary: Space Applications of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells
Summary: Space Applications of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells For decades, NASA has relied upon hydrogen gas as rocket fuel to deliver crew and cargo to space. With the Centaur, Apollo and space shuttle vehicles, NASA has developed extensive experience in the safe and effective handling of hydrogen. For example, the rocket engines of each shuttle flight burn about 500,000 gallons of cold liquid hydrogen with another 239,000 gallons depleted by storage boil off and transfer operations. Experts at Glenn Research Center, Kennedy Space Center, Marshall Space Flight Center, Stennis Space Center and White Sands Test Facility are proficient with hydrogen propellant transportation, storage, system design, training, safety standards, hazard analysis, testing, vehicle demonstration, technology transfer and outreach. With the recent focus on human missions to the moon and eventually Mars, hydrogen will continue to be innovatively stored, measured, processed and employed.
Patent US20040164824 - Hyperspace energy generator - Google Patenten
[0072] 1. Referring to FIG. 15, the coaxial cable has a braided gold wire outer conductor (A) and a braided gold wire inner conductor (B) separated by a dielectric (C). The open braiding promotes the conduction of the electromagnetic wave while allowing the hyperspace mist to seep out of the braid and permeate the surrounding material in which it is embedded. [0073] 2. The radius of the outer conductor a and the radius of the inner conductor b have the following values in order to couple the cable to the tetrahedral geometry of subspace. [0076] 3.

Flywheel energy storage
Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in an increase in the speed of the flywheel. Most FES systems use electricity to accelerate and decelerate the flywheel, but devices that directly use mechanical energy are being developed.[1] Since FES can be used to absorb or release electrical energy such devices may sometimes be incorrectly and confusingly described as either mechanical or inertia batteries [2][3] Main components[edit] The main components of a typical flywheel. A typical system consists of a rotor suspended by bearings inside a vacuum chamber to reduce friction, connected to a combination electric motor and electric generator.
