Pepsi refresh project grant voting January 1, 2011, Green Energy On-line, GEO, Energy and jobs
On Saturday, January 1, 2011, we will be notified by the Pepsi Refreah Project team if our project application has been approved for voting. If approved, a link will be provided on this site as well as on our social media accounts such as Twitter and Facebook.
We have been very active in passive solar and wind energy research and development using our own limited finances and resources. The Pepsi Refresh Project grant money, if received, will jump start our efforts, especially our planned design for solar augmented wind energy. Our advanced wind energy design should open new markets in lower wind speed areas.
We have already been in discussions and tests with two local established small businesses and will use them in our projects. We will immediately inject cash into the local economy with the intent of putting more people to work locally and nationally with labor intensive installations of passive solar and wind energy.
We will be utiliziing some active solar as well as passive solar. What we are particularly attracted to is more effectively using wind energy. Let’s face it. Using active or passive solar alone with a best case scenario of about 8 hours a day on average is not a good cost vs benefit solution.
Our December 1, 2010 announcement of our project review.
“Here is the email response from the Pepsi Refresh Project:
“We’ve received your idea, “Help us jump start simple, affordable green solar, wind energy, jobs.” We are reviewing it now.
Mark your calendar. On the first day of next month, we’ll let you know if your idea is approved. After that you can begin promoting your idea for a chance at a grant worth $50,000.”
We would like to add the following information. Our projects are very much ready to proceed and if we get the grant we will immediately spend money on parts and labor. We have been in negotiations with two small local companies.
■The first is a small local electrical company. The owner was impacted heavily by the economy and housing market. He has been upgrading his green energy and weatherization skills. He has already provided some volunteer labor for two of our projects.
■The second small company owner has been involved with us in the area of aesthetics, making passive solar projects more pleasing to the eye and consequently boost demand and jobs.”
