Solar Energy: To Capture the Power of Sun & Tide
Solar Energy: To Capture the Power of Sun & Tide
This film suggests that the sun & the moon, our oldest sources of energy crisis. We see solar mirrors that harness the light & heat of the sun, collecting & focusing its rays into temperatures reaching 6,800 degrees - hot enough to melt any substance on earth! We also see a house, which is heated by rainwater & solar energy. Tidal power, a never-ending byproduct of the moon s gravitational pull, is also being explored. We visit with W.R. Jenkner, who worked on a study to effectively and economically capture tidal energies, and see tow plants where it has been captured, one in France using turbines.
