The purpose of this project is to supply heat and electricity on a small scale, such as one to several
homes and can be up scaled to some degree.
A homeowner or a group or a larger building will be able to store summer heat for winter use, for
water and space heating. Especially in summer, electricity will be made and also direct air condition.
The energy is stored so that it may be used to make electricity when needed most.
The heat storage chamber has been completed with three separate loops of stainless steel tubing
amounting to 1400 feet and a chamber total volume of 4.5 cubic yards.

I have the footings in place for a larger rectangular parabolic dish with smaller mirrors. I have a very
good plan to mount and move this dish. I will be looking for a shop to make a die or mold to make
the mirrors next.

By the end of summer 2008, I expect to be collecting data on actual heat storage and possibly making
electricity. I have been in touch with people that are working on small size turbines etc.
In the winter of 2008 at the very least this will heat my home and shop.
I am committed to this project at this time. I do have several young people that I talk with about the
project and have had WebShopStudio.com design this site.

As the heat storage unit is ready, I expect to be pumping heat into it by June 15, 2008.

I also experimented with a ten foot diameter satellite dish lined in Reflect Tec. and a
guidance system made in Minnesota.
