Windmill & Solar Panel mash-up?

Green Energy Fusion

I can't help but see energy opportunities all around me and I thought to myself, what if Windmills were covered in solar panels or some kind of solar skin that could absorb the sun's rays? I then found this wonderful article from the University of Glasgow;

Just imagine the amount of energy captured by using both methods, maybe doubling the electricity output generated, it would be beyond me to quantify. It would be really interesting to see this this concept plugged into a Crypto-currency mining operation, a very green one at that. But, if you use your imagination and just think about the different types of things we could use Solar Skin to cover this Planet with, cars, planes and anything else with a surface where the Sun can reach, what do you think? We could generate our own energy by wearing Solar Skin bathing suits, possibly feed into the National Grid? Essentially, it would turn us into human batteries and if so, my bathing suit size is AA.

;-D

My son and I were just checking on one of his solar project sites - we're big believers in green energy, but unfortunately in Ontario everyone who invested in this sector got screwed by the government. I want every new build to have mandatory green energy features and be off the grid

I really like that both of you are green thinkers and wouldn't that be ideal if all new builds were built to that eco-friendly standard and offer energy independence to the residents. Some people say climate change is a hoax but I've ridden behind enough London buses to know we need to change the way we fuel ourselves through life. Thanks for the reply John and commend your son for his green thinking. :-)

will do :)

I literally had this same thought yesterday!

Telekinesis possibly? :-D We're all linking in consciously.

Um, no--you mean Jung's theory of synchronicity :)

Mr Geddes strikes again! Brilliant John, "meaningful coincidences" are indeed a good angle to look at green fusion with Jung's theory. Thinking about Tesla's work as well, the early 1900's was an awesome time for creative thinkers. Thank you so much for this John. :-D

Jung has been popping up in my mind recently. I reread Man and His Symbols several months ago for the first time since I was in my late teens or early 20s... I have been doing some dreamwork off and on - it really strikes me how much is going on inside us that is all to easy to just sort of glaze over. Primal stuff, for sure.

Thanks Zoe, I'm going to look into that book. So much going on. ;-) @johnjgeddes

If you're pressed for time, the first chapter - the one that Jung himself wrote as a preface to the remainder by others - really sort of encapsulates the whole thing. In my view, that portion can be read as a stand-alone piece.

I'm on it Zoe and thank you. We'll share some thoughts on this once I've completed a bit more research. I'm not as well read as you my dear and I need to play catch-up. ;-D
