Is made The Wind Power map of earth

Відadmin

General wind energy on heights about 10 kilometres, in 100 times exceeds the necessities of humanity, and it can be “ladled” by Wind Systems, look like air serpents, forth above large cities, such as New York, Tokyo or Seoul, the American scientists write in the article in a magazine “Energie”. Research authors, Cristina Archer from the Californian university and Ken Caldeira from Institute of Karnegi, first made the map of winds stream motion on large heights.

Streams of very high winds, exist on heights from 7 to 16 kilometres.

There are two types of flows – arctic, such which exist in middle breadths on height of 7-12 kilometres, and more weak, subtropical flows on heights 10-16 kilometres. In spite of some seasonal changes, air currents remain relatively permanent in both hemispheres.

Most potential of wind energy have Japan and east China, east coast of the USA, south Australia and North-eastern Africa.

One of wind streams it is above New York, which have a potential 16 kilowatts of wind energy on a square meter. Other “productive” places are Seoul, San Paulo, Tokyo, Mexico.

Scientists consider, that Wind Systems, look like air serpents, can generate and transport on earth more than 40 megawatt of electric energy.

Енергія припливів та відливів. Як це працює?

Відoliynyk

Приливна енергія в основному базується на місячній гравітації. У той же час потенціал приливної гідроелектроенергії вже давно визнано. В порівнянні з традиційним ГЕС, приливні енергетичні проекти є дорогими, тому що масивні конструкції повинні бути побудовані в складних умовах та солоній воді.

Most in the USA sun energy power-station will be built in the desert of the state New Mexico, declared a company NRG Energy. Power-station will produce energy, sufficient for providing of necessities of 74 thousands of private houses (92 megawatts ).
A project excels previous analogues, the most from them produces a 70 megawatts of electric power.

In Europe design the wind parks of the future

Wind behaves to the most perspective alternative energy sources. At past Hamburg conference the European specialists discussed conceptions of Wind Generator of new generation.
Wind Systems play in Europe, including in Germany, an important role. The most perspective have “off-shore wind parks”. It is marine complexes of Wind Systems near banks, where strength of wind is more high, than on land. However, building of wind generator on water is very expensive. Therefore, it will cover a cost only in case that wind parks produces the enough body of energy.
