Solar Tower Energy

I invented a breakthrough source of energy, which contradicts the law of conservation of energy. I have a PROOF that there are electrodynamic phenomena which contradict the law of energy conservation. It will cost about $1200 to make a 6 kW generator in mass production. Value of the energy produced yearly about $5400. I am looking for $300 000 for a prototype and for $3M for patents.

it’s not happening

@spamvigilante It kills me to agree with a name-calling idiot, but Mortsdans is fundamentally correct. $5 per installed watt of capacity does not compare well to most other forms of generation, and that # is a forecast – how many giant new engineering / construction projects come in “on budget” (remember the chunnel?). And a $/kwhr delivered cost is impossible to know because O&M on such a facility has never been done. I hope they can get this built to see if it can work, but I am skeptical.

I see the future for energy being based on tiny fission devices.

Like a tiny earth. Our inner core is solid iron the size of the moon over 5000 degrees and a liquid outer core the size of mars.

So there is pretty much a Sun inside the earth burning like mad.

How the universe gets along without any help is the mystery.

We can’t even light a few bulbs; using more energy to produce it than we net in the result. Makes us look pretty stupid I suppose.

Something will come along…but not this.

@DirectorZero well obviously the top doesn’t collect the rays, so no :S

@bucktheusa metal cables aren’t strong enough to even support their own weight in some situations but something like that could be done with some futuristic massive cable what’s stronger than a spider web (which is much much stronger than metal)

@bucktheusa You do realize you’re like the geezer who looked at the Wright brothers’ flying machine and intoned “It’ll never work!”, right?

Yes, lets create artificial winds over a huge land area!!!
Constant 30+ mph winds sure won’t fuck up the local environment, not to mention what it will do to local weather and cloud cover.
Why not try it out with something a bit smaller?

Is it 200MWh are what?
I would use a large steel pipe braced on the inside by flat steel. Then sitting on rocker bearing to allow it to sway with the wind. Also guide wires would be an abosolute to lower construction costs and to help stabilize the overall structure.
Basically all this would be is a tall radio tower on steroids.
Great idea btw!

Read about The Troll A platform. A concrete building like that is done in a single continuous pour. 1.5 km could be pushing it though, since all that concrete is pumped up if I remember correctly. That is a lot of energy. But it isn’t impossible or too expensive, just look at grain silos. Same tech.

“The ancient Chinese had a name for it: Feng Shui. We call it energy flow. It is the same thing, the same thought: energy is everywhere, but only a fraction of it is tapped by humans for their purposes. Now the Progenitors have taught us that we can tap not only our own latent abilities, but the latent abilities of the Universe itself.”

1000m for 200MW is definitely too much investment.
People at the top of tower will start felling weightless.
