Base Load, definition of

Green Architecture refers to the process of designing a building to have a reduced environmental impact either by reusing existing materials or using new materials in a lower impact way. Green architecture also focuses on reducing the ongoing energy consumption of the building.

Note: This does not mean than an existing building cannot be made more Green, rather it encompasses making sensible use of what is preexisting in a way that is more Green. Often reusing a building than completely removing it can have a dramatic positive impact on reducing environmental impact over the longer term.

• wind power generators, are they right for you?
  Wind power generation sounds like a possible way to offset rising power bills, we look at the issues involved and if it is practical for you.

• Renewable power cannot reproduce base load availability
  We look at the question of whether renewable power is able to provide 100% coverage for base load and therefore remove the need for it.
