There are so many new alternative energy sources popping up all the time that we had to create a page to devote to the innovative developments in the field that don’t quite fit into one of the other categories on this site. Of particular interest are the DIY projects of individuals who are finding ingenious ways to generate energy. We offer several links to DIY waterwheels and outdoor ovens for energy savings and more important self-sufficiency. We link articles that deal with creating a generator and alternative ways to cook meals.

We also deal with advancements in batteries and energy storage, both long and short-term. We, of course, touch on solar energy but only on alternative methods to source this renewable source. Our Solar Energy page is devoted to the more mainstream solar resources.

Creativity abounds when it comes to harnessing energy from the air, water, wind, sun, and other sources in order to leave a smaller eco-footprint, save money, and be able to generate energy where it was not easily done before. Sharing links on bringing energy to remote areas, allowing for off-grid and mobile living, and most importantly, having alternative energy sources available when the energy grid fails is the goal of this page.
