Alternative Energy

updated Sept. 17, 2002

This is a new topic here. I've had an interest in alternative energy since I was in grade 5 or 6 (10-11yrs old). My science project back then was a windmill that powered a 6volt bicycle dynamo. It wasn't a very successful project in terms of power production but got me started.

See my Pacific Energy "Summit" woodstove installation.

A little bit of information on pellet stoves is provided as well.

Wind Power is another good source of energy when combined with solar.

For more info see the "Links" to other cool alternative energy websites as well as additional links in these specific webpages.
