what percentage of a country’s budget is dedicated to developing alternative energy sources?

could you say that use of alternative energy sources is not widespread because the country only allots little money for it?

why?

what are other problems?
uhh, any country? the US, perhaps?

Yes. Because the companies which supply us with energy have a lot of us employed. This makes for a difficult process. Plus there are myriads of companies which are in the chain to supply energy. It is hard to shift that many people instantly. It is being done slowly now. When the alternate ideas are spread more,more people who are in the current energy supply companies change over and they make money. There will be a snowball effect and everyone will jump in. I seen this take place in our economy beginning in 1959. I started working at a company that made lawnmower ,snow blower gas engines. When I started we built 800 engines a day ,10 years later later we were building 12,000 engines a day. to run almost anything power. The engine started in the machine shop where it was machined to specs,in 60 minutes it had gas in the engine running in the test bed. In 1 hour it was packed and in the truck. Now most of this is made in China,etc We now produce the major supply of solar panels in the world and ship 80 % out to the world.We need more engineers, Smart people who refuse to give up producing alternate energy ! We must Sell more to other countries. We can do it when we have the right people ready!

Laundry Alternative Laundry Alternative Mini Countertop Spin Dryer

The Laundry Alternative Mini Countertop Spin Dryer (model: MINISPIN) lets you have a fully functional spin dryer even in the smallest compact space. Spin dryers are alternatives to traditional dryers which cost less energy to operate, are less harsh on clothes and work faster by rapidly spinning clothes to pull all of the water out of them instead of heating them and damaging fabrics. Its compact design is ideal for smaller apartments, dorm rooms or RV’s. The Mini Countertop dryer is lightweight for easy portability and plugs into any standard 110V plug. This portable clothes dryer features fast drying (2-3 minutes per load) and has a 2.2 lb capacity for wet laundry (about 1-2 pairs of jeans.) Safer on fabrics: The spin dry mechanics of this portable dryer means it removes the majority of moisture from your fabrics in just 2-3 minutes and then they can easily be hang dried or put into a conventional dryer. This no heat option is safe on fabrics and won’t cause them to wear out over time 110 Volt Plug: The Laundry Alternative Mini Countertop Spin Dryer uses a standard 110 Volt outlet, meaning there’s no need for a special 220V plug Fast and efficient: The Laundry Alternative Mini Countertop Spin Dryer works in minutes and uses less energy (only 82 watts) than conventional household tumble dryers

Which countries are leaders in alternative energy source research and utilization?

Why are these countries so interested in alternative energy?

yaay we are! (sings; rule britannia, brittania rules the waves!)

we have a working tidal stream turbine
http://www.marineturbines.com/

working wave generator farms;
http://www.pelamiswave.com/

two off shore wave power research facilities for new prototypes, one in devon and one in scotland.

come on usa! do keep up!

actually, in terms of per capita generation, the danes, closely followed by the swedes.

edit;
tde, i’m not sure you can count nuclear as ‘alternative’ lol!
