Alternative Energy Sources. This evening, I
discovered a really
informative piece of content that talks over Eco Energy Sources from a different
perspective. Today’s amazing post is titled How could we use joules effect in tv/computers/refrigerators….to generate power and energy? .
Question by Sara: How could we use joules effect in tv/computers/refrigerators….to generate power and energy?
i was thinking that we loose joules effect in Electronic appliances why don’t we make an invention to convert it to energy or power

Well, we can run refridgerators on sound! (Google Acoustic Refrigeration), so i dont think its impossible that there could be some form of acoustic generator that you could put in your house, or attatch to your computer, or refrigerator, there are also heat absorbing pads that generate electricity using temperature differences, you could attatch this to the hot part of your fridge to absorb some of hte excess heat generated on the back (and convert it into power) which, could be sent to an offsite location (maybe the energy companies could buy the excess energy from you for a low price, helping to (effectively) cut your energy bills slightly!
For example, if you pay (example, as im not sure on current energy prices) 15p/kwh, and you use 1000kwh in energy (£150)
and of that 1000kwh 20% is waste energy (Excess heat or sound).
but the devices to harvest this excess wont be 100% efficient.
Assuming 80% efficiency.
20% of the £150 is £30
So you would earn 80% of that £30 (£24)
So your final bill, rather than being £150 is now effectively £126! per 1000kwh!
Meaning, instead of paying 15p/kwh, your now paying 12.6p/kwh!
The Devices i mentioned actually exist today, so if those “Head up their @ss, money grabbing” energy tycoons actually put this plan into effect, for every device on the planet, the carbon foot print could be cut by a noticable amount, as we would be using Recycled Energy!
Just like using recycled paper and Card helps save trees, using recycled energy could help save the earth! (Of course it wont be an overnight change)
