Cesar R asked:
I’m doing a project in Science Club and me and the other people in club are wondering about how we could convert solar energy into electrical energy on a system?

Tahini Raving Weirdo asked:
I am building a two-seater, electric catamaran, 21 ft. long, about 8 knots top speed, no sails, just two electric DC engines. I am aiming at a range of about 20 miles before it needs recharging, and my only recharging device will be a wind turbine. I’ve seen they do about 100 – 400 Watts when they are the marine type which usually attaches to sailboats; how long would it take for such a turbine to replenish energy in my boat, would anyone know? I’m hopeless with these things, but I still love doing them.
Thanks so much!

Lizzy K asked: I’ve tried some internet sites, but none of them have given me any real idea of how it works except “It turns the blades and generates electricity”
I am really interested in Wind energy, and how it works. Anyone have a somewhat clearer explanation for me? Thanks.

ridder asked: We are just starting out increasing our hobby farm and bought a solar panel that is supposed to have enough juice to power our electric fence (we are getting 2 steers). Has anyone had good or bad results with one of these? We live in Wisconsin.

Jimmy C asked:
What solar panel is needed to charge four 12 volt batteries?
Voltage?
Amperage?
Wattage?
the batteries are car batteries and they are hooked up in series. That’s all I know since it’s not my project it’s someone elses.

sharyn asked:
Ok so here’s the thing, I want to make my own solar energy. I’m not saying huge amounts that can power my house, I just want enough that I could, I don’t know charge a battery. I also would like to learn how to make solar energy for things like flashlights I make myself. I need to know how to hook the solar power up as a power source. Thank you for all your help and website links would also be appreciated.

I will like to make a solar panel at home. I know that they are not that expensive today but I thought it would be fun.
