| Abstract | Major emphasis is placed in today's technological society of being “green.” Being energy efficient and using renewable resources are strongly encouraged in many different aspects of life. One way environmentalists tout of being able to save the planet is through the use of solar panels or wind turbines to power one's home. Many renewable energy companies boast of being able to take one's household off the power grid or lower one's power bill by utilizing their respective renewable energy devices. This paper will explore the feasibility of these claims and determine whether it is actually economically or aesthetically possible to take one's home off the power grid and utilize a personal energy source. The areas being explored will range from wind turbines, solar panels, personal capacitor banks, solar water heaters, etc. A determination will be made at the end of the paper of whether an average family in Pensacola could indeed live off the power grid. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
