...CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the study Wind is the most economical and safest means of energy generation. Wind can supply energy without emitting harmful substances and chemical compounds that contribute to the rampant acceleration of the destruction of our environment that lead to global warming. Furthermore, wind power is the best option other than any other means of electricity generations such as fossil fuels and other harmful energy resources which cause damage not only danger to the human health but as well as to the environment. The multiplication of the usage of wind energy as a power source for electricity is worldly outgrowing. An estimation of 45,000 megawatts were installed in 2012 and ten percent increase in installation was recorded, a large difference if we compare the data gathered in 2011 and in 2012. The unbalanced heating of the atmosphere due to the sun’s energy results to the formation of winds, the untypical surface and the rotation of the earth around the sun causes winds. Wind directions are interrupted by the mountainous structure of the earth, its hydrologic state and its land plains. When winds pass turbines, it can generate electricity. From kinetic energy, wind propellers...

This new business idea produced satisfied customers and increased sales, spawning the precursor of the modern convenience retail concept. The company's first convenience outlets were known as Tote'm stores since customers "toted" away their purchases, and some even sported genuine Alaskan totem poles in front. In 1946, Tote'm became 7-Eleven to reflect the stores' new, extended hours - 7 a.m. until 11 p.m., seven days a week.

...Solar power as away of providing heat and electrical energy from heat The Sun the heat of the sun is about equivalent to burning a billion trillion tons of coal an hour. Even though only a small fraction of that heat ever reaches the earth it is still more then enough to power the whole world. People seemed to realize the importance of the sun around 30,000 BC. This was when people first started planting crops of wheat. They realized plants did better when planted in the sun over the shade. This caused them to worship the sun as a God. Many cultures built large and extravagant temples to worship the sun in. Other cultures built places to observe the sun in, such as Stonehenge in England. Different Types of Solar Panels There are three main types of solar panels. They are flat plate collectors, focusing collectors, and solar cells. The first kind is a flat plate collector. Flat plate collectors are fastened on the top of the roof of a house. They usually either heat the house or its water. A flat plate collector consists of a black rectangular frame, two or three sheets of glass, and copper plumbing. A flat plat collector uses the greenhouse affect. The sun rays go through the glass but can’t get out through the glass. The sun rays heat the water-filled copper tubes. Then the water is used to heat the home or water. Another type of a solar panel is a focusing collector. They consist of a mirror or mirrors...
