1 Megawatt Fuel Cell Power Plant
This is a video of a 1 megawatt Fuel Cell Power Plant at California State University, Northridge, in Los Angeles, CA. The power plant has a reformer that separates hydrogen from natural gas and then feeds the hydrogen into a fuel cell, generating electricity. The plant also recovers the heat generated and uses it for domestic heating on campus. In the future, some of the carbon emitted will be sequestered in a sub-tropical rainforest that is under construction.
While at present this power plant still uses fossil fuels (the natural gas is needed in order to extract the hydrogen from it), in the future the hydrogen will be generated either from landfill gas, or else it will be electrolyzed using wind, solar, geothermal, wave or hydroelectric energy. What is most important and exciting about this plant is the fact that it is using fuel cells--touted to be the future of electricity generation--today, and they are working seamlessly on a large scale.

Electromagnetic Over Unity Power Plant
http://www.gammamanager.com/
This uniquely configured rotating machine generates additional torque on the shaft when rotated through the magnetic field. Combined electrical/heat output exceeds input energy by over 40 percent.
EBM (Energy By Motion) Overunity or perpetual motion labeled as impossible. This single device will threaten all other forms of energy, oil, coal, even solar. the uses of this device are endless, generating endless electricity with no fuel. A similar device is being made into a car engine, smaller devices can power a house forever for free with zero emissions. A very small magnetic motor will run endlessly to charge an electric car.
I have no additional information on this video other than what you see within the video. The posting of this video is to explore the possibilities of cheap or perpetual energy. There are people who are violently opposed toward this video and for some reason attack people on this blog as if it is a threat to their world.
The opposition is that these devices contradict every law known today. Ok we got it!!! There are those that follow laws because they are trained to do so, then there are the free thinkers who want to see if they can find ways to alter what is considered reality of today or alter existing laws. People that come here to merely harass will be blocked, please allow the dreamers to dream and the inventors to invent.

The Combined Power Plant
http://www.unendlich-viel-energie.de
The secure and constant provision of power anywhere and at anytime by renewable energies is now made possible thanks to the Combined Power Plant. The Combined Power Plant links and controls 36 wind, solar, biomass and hydropower installations spread throughout Germany. It is just as reliable and powerful as a conventional large-scale power station.
The Combined Renewable Energy Power Plant shows how, through joint control of small and decentralised plants, it is possible to provide reliable electricity in accordance with needs. The Combined Power Plant optimally combines the advantages of various renewable energy sources. Wind turbines and solar modules help generate electricity in accordance with how much wind and sun is available. Biogas and hydropower are used to make up the difference: they are converted into electricity as needed in order to balance out short-term fluctuations, or are temporarily stored. Technically, there is nothing preventing us from 100 per cent provision with renewables.
The Combined Power Plant is an initiative of the companies Enercon GmbH, Schmack Biogas AG and SolarWorld AG, and is supported by many partners from the renewable energy sector.

Power Plant Substation Explodes
In early 2001, the Ives Dairy Substation in Miami, Florida experienced a total system failure. It started with the simple failure of a capacitor bank (a piece of equipment used to synchronize and optimize varying electrical currents "phases" coming off the main power grid before being distributed to customers).
This short circuit caused a breaker to trip open, however it malfunctioned and created an arc fault (a continuous lightning bolt that acted like an uncontrollable welding torch from hell) between the hot lead and wherever it could find a ground, thus pulling far more current then the facility was designed for.
Unknown to FPL operators at the time, the emergency response system that would have notified the grid dispatcher of a serious problem (who would have then cut the power to the substation to kill the arc fault) was faulty, and no message was ever sent. Since the dispatcher had no way of knowing about the arc fault, the substation continued to self-destruct.
The uncontrolled arc fault caused the coolant (mineral oil) inside the primary transformer to overheat to critical levels until it was boiling in a highly flammable state. This boiling caused pressure to rise inside the transformer (like a pressure cooker) until the seals finally blew. Mineral oil vapor proceeded to pour out at that point (the plume of white fog at the end) which ignited on the arc fault. The flames caused by this immediately ignited back to the source, (the boiling transformer tank), which ignited the mother load of oil inside causing the substation to explode in a giant ball of fire.
The sudden loss of all transformer coolant resulted in a simultaneous flash-meltdown of the transformers innards, which immediately caused the main high voltage fuse to overload and blow (the loud explosion at the end), finally killing the arc.
You can view an aerial photo of the substation location here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&time=&date=&ttype=&q=Ives+Dairy+Rd%2C+Miami%2C+FL&sll=25.967459%2C-80.183008&sspn=0.0038%2C0.007381&ie=UTF8&ll=25.96745%2C-80.18289&spn=0.0038%2C0.007381&t=h&z=18&om=1 (Note: this is a current map photo of the newly rebuilt, slimmed down substation that sits where the old substation used to be.)
