Like most of you I have ideas floating around in my head all the time and for the most part that is where they stay (just sitting there growing old and moldy). So from time to time I have decided to throw a few out there and share them, maybe some one can make good of them?
Here is one for this week.
1. A pinwheel size wind generator on top of every telephone pole in America? I can not imagine this concept would ever solve all of our energy needs. But how much of an impact could it make? Would this sort of network have a plausible effect on the overall grid? It would seem that the numbers are in favor of manufacturing such an item at a low cost. And In the face of opposition to new wind farms, think about it there are thousands and thousands of preexisting telephone poles crisscrossing our nation, would it be to much to ask them to multi task a little, I mean they are already just standing there holding wire?
