We had some really great threads last year, with the following four nominated for the Thread of the Year award in this January's Environment Site Awards ceremony.

I think they're great and give a real sense of what the forum is capable of, so if you're looking for a reason to join, check these out.

Solar Energy Forum I have no doubt that we will be successful in harnessing the sun's energy.... If sunbeams were weapons of war, we would have had solar energy centuries ago. ~Sir George Porter

SolarKen is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Venus teaches...
The planet Venus has a temperature of 480°C
and takes a solar radiation like the earth.
Venus teaches that a good/special(?).. isolation can
be good for an high temperature without the need of solar concentrators...

Venus is an example that all solar radiation of the day(from seven a.m. to seven p.m.) can be good to enhance the temperature...with a good isolation!..

Venus solar energy = Earth solar energy
But Venus temperature = 480°C
This temperature depends on its isolation..
Every little solar radiation can enhance every temperature without the need of solar concentrators...if there is a good isolation..
Venus is an example of it!

I can't say I'd want to live on Venus though.
