A suggested...
model standard (For an Electrical Generation Triad)
| Adoption of this model electrical regulation concept by ERCOT and utility regulators in other states would accelerate a trend toward renewable energy solutions and a reduction of pollution and greenhouse gas emissions that are fostered by the burning of none renewable fuels for electrical production. This triad would not do away with conventional power generators, nor nuclear power plants, because to do so is not practical nor will it win support from major stockholders of utility companies, many of whom contribute significant cash for re-elections of those representatives that ERCOT and other utility regulators in other states are answerable to. Utility companies faced with mandates from their regulators will find it in their stockholders best interests to jump on the band-wagon and start installation of PV and none wind turbulence damaged wind turbines on the buildings in cities and suburbs to which they supply electrical energy; instead of buying ever larger blocks of carbon credits, with this suggested scheme. They would make de-facto partners of their electrical consuming customers by the utilization of inside city limits subscribers' structures, by implementation of lease-back, low fixed kilowatt hourly rates as a means to pay down the installation price of these systems on their customers' buildings and otherwise unused inner-city land. It is a win-win scenario. The utilities' existing grid-connected conventional electrical power plants would be retained and used as load-leveling sites for the existing grid, which should require no new high tension power lines to be installed as load demands continue to increase every year; because the commercial sized solar (focused solar for steam and PV systems) and wind turbines that they themselves would, for the most part, be installed at the load end of their grid since these generators do not pollute nor make greenhouse gases when making electrical energy. |
Above is an example of a wind turbine that is not damaged by wind turbulence.
There are twisted, multi-vane horizontal-axle variants as well. These turbines are low
speed, quiet and none-lethal-to-nature. When mounted with inexpensive, self-powered
so-called "anti-gravity" thrust bearings (essentially comprised of like-charged direct-
current magnetic fields that repel each the other, effectively making them frictionless
bearings) this type of turbine does not induce the structural damage or noise caused
by the induced vibration of conventional bearings, to the tops of buildings that they are
mounted upon.
