Unlimited Energy It's All In The Numbers

Electrical energy has many great theories!

 The higher the voltage the less the amp draw. Example 120/240 volts single phase what is connected to most homes and small business also referred to as secondary side of the grid connection transformer has a example load of 200 amps that same load at 7200 volts on the primary side of the transformer would be 6.78 amps. So what does all that mean? Basicly the cooler you can operate electrical devices the more efficient that it will operate. Wattage divided by voltage equals amps. Example 1 120/volt 60/watt light how many amps does it draw? Soulation 60 divided by 120 equals 0.5 amps. Knowing what you're watt loads are the first step in sizing any off grid energy system to meet any kw demand  draw. Example 1 kw is 10 amps a typical 120/240 volt electric clothes dryer will take 3 kw to operate 30/amps at 120/240 volts.


By knowing your total wattage load and every electrical device in your home or business you can size to a battery bank to operate totally off grid for hours or days by using just solar and wind to charge the battery bank thru microprocessor protected charge controllers. With the high cost of these batteries it is very important to monitor everything that they do from the climate they are in to the charging and the way that it is delivered. One bad cell in a battery can drain unnecessary energy and ruin the others in a banked system. Also auto start generators can be configured to charge the battery bank, along with the wind and solar also called a hybrid system. By taking 4 12/volt dc AH batteries you can change the voltage to 48 volts dc, which means it should be 4 times more efficient then if were to be operated at just the 12/volt rating.



Ok we have touched on the higher the voltage the less the amp draw and a basic understanding of watt loads and battery banking. Now let's put it to work to generate ac energy. DC to AC pure sine wave inverters have come a long way and only will get better as newer tecknowledgey come online. For this example we will start with 1 48/volt dc inverter 120/240 volt 10 kw it does not have enough kw to operate your 20 kw electrical panel but if you take 2 48/volt dc inverters 120/240 volt 10 kw also called stacking you now can drive your 20 kw electrical panel. Using this principle you can have Unlimited Energy it's all in the numbers. And what makes this even better is you can have 3 inverters to make 3 Phase energy for any commercial load by stacking them as necessary. Meaning you can drive an entire village or remote island totally off grid.
But why stop here how about making your own primary grid also called micro grids. By using the above information it is very possible to do just that. The same principal as your grid tied electric service goes out due to a storm and a generator is powering a home without a transfer switch to stop it from backfeeding into the grid it will back feed the transformer from secondary voltage to primary voltage. Until the power comes back on and blows the generator apart or the local utility discovers the backfeed hopefully not killing a lineman in the process. That is why transfer switch's are very important to protect one source of energy from another. In short is is possible to take hybrid energy and turn it into primary energy to tap secondary kw loads any where also called island systems and microgrids.
