Alternative Sources of Energy is a popular news topic these days. While some are still seeking new options the truth is we already have existing technologies that can make an immediate impact. The problem is simpler and more affordable methods to harness renewable energy of choice such as sun, wind, water and others are needed. Renewable energy sources that don't endanger the worlds' unlimited natural resources or damage the environment is the wave of the future. Once such energy is harnessed an efficient method of delivering the product is vital if there are going to be any advances in energy conservation.
Part of the problem is thinking too big. Inventors need to create products and systems that addresses energy needs on a small scale we would see much progress. New energy conserving products that accommodate the personal needs of home and vehicle owners on a small scale can add up to huge results.
Imagine each home, business and vehicle owner having his or her own small renewable power sources for each piece of equipment. People will welcome the new technology but they will demand simplicity, convenience and affordability. Deliver those three and eliminate most resistance to change.
Two young teenagers from the Middle East invented a small simple device that could affect major change. They invented a tiny device that when placed under a speed bump generated a small amount of energy each time a vehicle rolled over the bump. The device powered a battery that powered a nearby streetlight.
Imagine if this device was applied to every speed bump. It's a small solution for one fixture but it certainly makes a point. One device powering thousands or millions of applications requiring an energy source could lead to major reductions.
To finally break through the barrier of dependency on limited resources we need the cooperative effort of private individuals, public companies and government entities to apply knowledge that already exists. Incentives for new inventions of renewable energy products would speed up development and availability of new products. Some have the knowledge and desire but now all they need is the reward. Only then will America and the world truly leave energy needs of the past behind and take the quantum leap into the future of clean and Renewable Energy
