Solar Tower - Renewable Energy Green Global Warming

Oh yes!
You have no idea how much less power a car needs.

60 KW for this monster?
It is not even the power of a single car!

How sis this not come to mind ages ago???

hope it can generate energy without pollution

Just the sort ideas we need to be exploring to solve our long term energy needs here in the states. Go Aussie.

Beautiful way to make electricity

A very interesting pilot plant. When and where can we expect to see some more trials like this and how reliable would you rate this equipment?

Loved the video, thanks. I can easily see how the Solar Tower could very easily scale. I imagine it's something like double the diameter, four times the power. At some point, I would imagine the height of the tower becomes immaterial.

There might be a problem with polination of them under a tent of that size. I think it could be done by human means though.

Your logic is faulty. Read the last part of your post. The planets have such different characteristics that any correlation is spurious at best.

Having 4 blades instead of more suggests to me that it moves rather fast in the day.
Overall I'm impressed at how amazing it works. Building the tower higher may seem quite impractical, as high winds will require thicker walls and deeper foundation. What effect will it have on the output if the tower is pyramidal or upside down pyramidal?
This plant will require quite some embodied energy in making plastic and the reinforced concrete tower, but definately worth investing.

oh okay. so we could probably place solar toweres in aeroplanes then? kyheheh, nah kidding...

You didn't pick up a single hint of sarcasm in his post?
...

Are you kidding?

since this thing is a green house under the plastic then why dont they grow organic foods?multipurpose machine..
