Couple Source of Energy Produce Energy for the Coming Future

Renewable Energies:

Solar Wind Power:

Solar and wind both are those energies which have been discovered by the human being for the last several years. As the world discovered these energies to meet, the growing energy needs day by day.

Solar energy, which is generated by the sun, is better known as solar energy or solar power and the other energy, which is generated from the wind, is usually called wind energy. Both are considered as a means of producing power.

Though these two sources of energy have attracted scientists for a very long time, in the meanwhile they are not able to decide, which of the two a better source to generate energy is. Now the scientist related to discovering energies for the future are looking for the third option as well.

Scientist at Washington State University has now combined solar energy and wind energy to produce massive energy called solar wind power, which will satisfy all energy requirements of humanity.

Advantage of Renewable Energy:

The scientists declare that while the whole power generated from solar wind will not be capable to reach the planet for use as a lot of power generated by the satellite has to be forced back to copper wire to produce the electron-harvesting magnetic field, so far the quantity that reaches the earth is more than adequate to fulfill the requirements of the entire humankind, irrespective of the environment condition.

In addition, the group of scientists at Washington State University hopes that it can produce 1 billion gigawatts of energy by using an immense 8,400-kilometer-wide solar sail to bring in the power in the solar wind.

According to the team at Washington State University, 1000 homes can be lit by producing as much as necessary power for them with the help of 300 meters (984 feet) of copper wire, which joined to a two-meter-wide (6.6-foot-wide) receiver and a 10-meter (32.8-foot) sail.

A satellite has a 1,000-meter (3,280-foot) cable with a sail 8,400 kilometers (5,220 miles) across, which are positioned at something like the same orbit, which may also generate approximately one billion gigawatts of power.

The solar and wind power-producing, scientists consider that if some of the real problems are solved, Solar wind power will generate the sum of power that no one together with the scientists working to find new resources of generating power ever expected.

Working of Solar wind power technology

The satellite launched to strike solar wind power, as an alternative of working similar to a windmill, where a blade attached to the turbine is physically rotated to generate and produce electrical power, would utilize charged copper wire for capturing electrons zooming away from the sun at quite a lot of hundred kilometers per second.

Disadvantages of Renewable Energy:

However, regardless of the reality, that Solar wind power will solve nearly all the issues that we were to face in the future caused by power generating resources being exhausted or tending to exhaust partial vacuums, it has a few demerits as well.

The co-author of the journal paper Brooks Harrop, state that, though scientists are eager to tap solar wind to produce energy according to our requirements, they also need to keep necessities for engineering complexity and these engineering difficulties will have to be solved before satellites to tap solar wind power are set up.

The distance between the satellite and earth will be so vast that as the laser beam travels millions of miles, it makes even the tightest laser beam extend out and lose most of the power. To solve this issue, more paying attention to the laser is considered necessary.

Moreover, but still, if these laser beams reach our satellites, it is very uncertain that our satellites in their present type will be capable to tap them., a scientist Greg Howes, at the University of Iowa stated it, The energy is there but to tap that energy from the solar wind, we need huge satellites. There may be practical limitations in this.
