The Solar Society
|
This is for people who want to develop and build devices that use the sun's energy, for home use. Examples would be electricity generation, hot water, solar cookers, & solar powered water pumps. The name comes from "The Lunar Society", which met in Birmingham, England, UK, from 1765 to 1809. The Lunar Society played a major role in the industrial revolution. James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine, was a member. We are looking for competent people who like to build things or do research or design.

Our next meeting:
The Solar Society Regular Meeting
I think I should mention that this group is about physical energy, the kind that can produce electricity. There are many people who are into spiritual or psychic energy; this is not that kind a group.
I'm Mitchell Timin. (google me) I'm a retired engineer and inventor. I'm hoping to be part of a team of 4 to 6 people who will cooperate to build an efficient and economical solar electric system. Read more
