Check out "lego gravity generator", like your grandfather clock idea for storing mechanical energy. If you had a high tower I wonder how much power you could store? The tower could have muliple weights hanging from it!!
That hetaing question could be a good idea if you made a big heat vent going into the house but starting away from the house, 2 fresnel lenses one running your steam engine whice could turn a fan and another heating up a piece of metal the fan blows the hot air into the house via the vent,what you think?
If you can imagine a grandfather clock mechanism, you could use solar energy to lift a mass to some altitude. Then, when the sun goes down, you let the mass fall. As the mass falls, it spins a shaft, which then performs work. Energy stored is E=mgh, where m is mass in kilograms, g is gravitational constant, and h is the height in meters. Power is E divided by time, so how quickly it drops determines maximum output power.
the hyperquadration rate of the oxygenation to energy levels would ultimately damage the effects of the solar rays and render any potential kinetic energy transfers to prove futile.
No, they do not amplify light, they concentrate it. You would be better off with dark mini blinds or drapes. These should not be used near structures.
Ok, so can you take the concentrated heat and apply it to solar panels to make them more efficient and able to use less panels to generate more electricity? I am still learning how the solar panel works. But there has got to be a way to harness this and make it into something useable.
There's no point living in a country where the temperature goes so cold you can't sleep outside. I want to leave Finland and go to southern Spain or South-America
I think, as many here also has commented, that you should experiment more on generating usable energy using fresnel lenses and/or the parabolic mirrors you've got so many of! :)
Maybe seeing if you can even do a mix between a mini solar tower wind generator and fresnel lenses?!
Just a couple of thoughts anyway. :)
Keep on doing these videos - they're a real inspiration! :)
I think the HEAT EVERTYTHING with the Fresnel Lens is over. It is now time to start generating usable energy in an efficient manner on a large scale. Or you can just do the huge popcorn gag from Real Genius in your house with a lens instead of a laser.

Imagine if you add to the method a mirror to reflect under the kettle? Do you need to use glass? Maybe not

hmm combine taht with a steam engine of some sort, get come kinetic energy and maybe make a solar generator?
