Fill the empty fuel tank with fresh, stabilized fuel. Run the engine at idle for five to 10 minutes to warm it and allow new fuel to replace old. With the engine warm, change the oil and (if applicable) the oil filter. Run the engine at idle for another five minutes to circulate the new oil.
A Look at Liquid Air Energy Storage Technology
Highview Power Storage with project partners, Viridor, recently received more than £8m [US $11.4m] in funding from the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change for the design, build and testing of a 5-MW LAES technology plant that would be suitable for long duration energy storage. The site will soon be operational in the north
How electricity is generated
Most U.S. and world electricity generation is from electric power plants that use a turbine to drive electricity generators. In a turbine generator, a moving fluid—water, steam, combustion gases, or air—pushes a series of blades mounted on a rotor shaft. The force of the fluid on the blades spins (rotates) the rotor shaft of a generator.

Is carbon capture too expensive? – Analysis
There is no single cost for CCUS. CCUS applications do not all have the same cost. Looking specifically at carbon capture, the cost can vary greatly by CO 2 source, from a range of USD 15-25/t CO 2 for industrial processes producing "pure" or highly concentrated CO 2 streams (such as ethanol production or natural gas processing) to
Power station
They thus produce power more cheaply and reliably than earlier models. [22] With larger turbines (on the order of one megawatt), the blades move more slowly than older, smaller, units, which makes them less visually distracting and safer for birds.
Cycle for electricity: Harnessing the power of pedaling
By incorporating a cycle system that converts pedaling power into electricity, bicycles can become a valuable source of renewable energy. These bicycle-powered generators work by attaching a generator or dynamo to the wheel of the bike, which then converts the rotational energy from pedaling into electrical energy.

Every electricity storage technology you need to know about
Pumped hydropower storage uses excess electricity to pump water from a lower reservoir up to a higher one (for example up a mountain or hill) where it is stored. When electricity is needed, the water is released from the higher reservoir and runs down the natural incline, passing through a typical hydro-power turbine to generate electricity.
