Prologue

This blog is meant for sharing ideas on alternative ways of generating electricity. Primarily, small scale energy technology. Now, that does not mean that I have boycotted fossil fuels. But lets keep it to sub-kilowatt scale.

I would be sharing some designs of devices that I have in mind. I also welcome ideas from readers. The purpose of this site is to freely exchange thoughts and opinions on whether the ideas are feasible, their utility, cost effectiveness, practical applications and so on and so forth.

Let me share the reason for starting this blog. Even though I live in India, which is considered to be a developing country, I consider myself a citizen of the developed world. I enjoy almost all the amenities that you would normally associate with the people living in advanced countries. My house is hooked up to the electric grid and the internet. I consider that to be a great privilege and the primary reason for my high standard of living. I would like to preserve that.

In the coming post, I will discuss some of the problems the current energy paradigm that we live in.
