While looking up information for another matter, I
found a document on using photo-voltaics (solar cells)
as power sources and showing how they could in many
cases be cheaper than grid power when you factor in
all the line costs and such.
The other intriguing idea is to feed your excess
energy back into the power grid, where this reverse
flow is metered so that you receive a check from the
power company based on how much power you 'sell' them.
The recent comments about a new, more efficient type
of solar cell rated at 32% or higher makes this an
ever more attractive idea, depending of course of the
street price of those new solar cells when they become
available. Much of the material in this handbook will
be applicable to a working overunity device or other
means of accumulating electrical energy.

Actual energy production from PV panels is limited by
the PV cell efficiency, panel orientation, and other
factors...
This handbook is intended to provide electric utility
managers with:
Helpful information about the market for off-grid PV
systems;
A simple survey for identifying key PV markets in a
utility service territory;
Screening techniques to identify customers with
potentially cost-effective PV applications;
A method for estimating the market value of off-grid
PV products and services;
A framework for developing a PV business plan;
Examples of other utilities’ experiences with off-grid
PV technologies; and,
A list of PV information resources for utility
managers.
------------------------
In my view, BARRING direct tapping of ambient energy
to provide as much energy as is necessary at any
moment in time, then for a start, we would need an
accumulation system consisting of;
1) the energy accumulator
thermodynamic such as Minto/Schlictig/Griggs/Clem
high voltage such as Hyde/Testatika/Lambertson
solar cells/wind/etc.
2) the storage system
(two banks, one to charge while the other is in use)
capacitor banks
battery banks
3) power distribution
AC lets you use off the shelf devices so you need
inverters
DC is more efficient over short runs so you could use
RV type appliances (more expensive) or modify your own
The above is of course a stepping stone until we can
figure out how to extract all the power we need as we
need it, as from the suspected aether/zpe tap.
