Your Questions About Solar Energy Facts

Susan asks…

Is it possible to build a solar power plant using old CDs?

I read somewhere that if you cover the inside of a VW bug’s roof with CDs, you’ll have a reflector focusing enough solar energy to boil water in a reasonably sunny climate. I’m curious: How far can this be scaled up, with racks of CD mounted on heliostats blasting a dark vessel to create steam to drive a turbine?

Equipping Home with Wind Generated Power How to Begin?

I am considering equipping a home in West Texas (11 acres of land, plenty of room) with wind powered generators in order to provide electricity to the property. Where does one begin? Can windmills generate enough power to run the home, how is the A/C tied into the home and the feed fro the power company? Any thoughts? Thanks.
