There is energy all around us. There is energy flowing through us every minute of every day. There are energies that scientists haven't even started to look for yet.
Energy is not scarce. It is, in fact, very abundant.
So, why don't we have free energy everywhere on the planet?
Why, indeed!
Tesla was all set to provide it. All he needed was a pile of copper and it would have been done.
When I bring up Tesla, everybody's brains probably leaped to those dirty, money grubbing, power hungry, control freaks. And this would not be wrong. However, the story of why not goes much deeper.
The reason Tesla couldn't deliver anything except for his one invention, AC (motors), was that was all that humanity could take. Humanity was not ready to accept more. We were still too stuck in scarceness mentality. We had two world wars, and a bunch of little ones, that we were heading into, and having an abundance of energy would have meant more destruction. More, bigger weaponry. More manufacturing of armaments.
If humanity was ready to give up the scarcity mindset we could have had free energy and we could have also avoided all those wars. But, mankind had issues to work out. And the way they were working them out was through physical violence.
So, now you know. Tesla completed 90% of his tower. Everyone has the blueprints. But no one has come close to copying what he did in front of many newspaper men.
Since then, no one has been taught about the true properties of electro-magnetism, only a pseudo-science that, effectively, only works over short distances and in the most inelegant way possible. You cannot find your way to the promised land (free energy) when you are trapped inside a prison in your mind. We literally have to break out of this prison, and then we can start mapping out where we are. And then begin our journey to the land of free energy.
What is a free energy device?
You could say that a solar panel is a free energy device.
And it is, however it is a very expensive free energy device. Its lifespan isn't that long. And the only real reason it is used is because it is fairly maintenance free. That, and it really is the only individually ownable, long term, power device..
Geothermal, Fire and Ice, Wind and Tidal energy are also free energy devices. The problem is that they are not ubiquitous, and they are not as useful on every spot on the world. However, with man's intelligence, we could find the best existing energy in each spot and power what we can.
Galactic energy and zero-point energy are also free energy devices. The operating principals of these are extremely simple. Like the aeroplane, once invented, it is obvious. However, they will be forever elusive until humans no longer want to make war. Its coming. Maybe in as little as two generations.
Can we complete Tesla's Work?
Sadly, the reality is, no.
But it is not because what Tesla designed would not work, indeed, he tested it out before making a really big version. It is because power corrupts, and ultimate power attracts the worst psychopaths. So, you have this great big tower that provides electricity to the entire planet. How easy is it to imagine some dictatorial figure that rises up to claim it as his/her own?
Bwaahahahahahaaaa, kneel before me sheep or I will turn off the power. If you don't pay all of the taxes I demand, I will make the world suffer. You don't want your grandma freezing to death now, do you?
(Also, we would have to rework all of our appliances; especially our computers. These all work by having ground as a reference.)
Currently, we already have tyrants holding us hostage for life necessary energy. They control every level of energy production and outlaw almost every alternative form of energy production. They truly have a monopoly over our lives and livelihood. Just think of what would happen with an even more centralized source?
What can we do?
Since we can't build Tesla's tower, nor are we in a good position to just wait till someone invents a cheap and easy free energy device, I suggest that we work on tidal energy and geothermal energy. Both are in vast abundance, and even with our 1950s technology, we could easily produce them.
With ocean wave energy, all we need to do is build a large wheel with paddles that waves impact against. The only downside is that it is as big as a Ferris wheel. Maybe we can build a Ferris wheel right next to it on the board walk. Continual power, 24 hours a day, and extra power during storms when you need the heating most.
And geothermal energy is the easiest of all (and the most politically blocked) instead of drilling an oil well for oil, you drill it down, case it, and use salt water to extract heat. Really really simple.
I suggest people stop asking govern-cement to build these things. Govern-cement has proven time and time again that when it comes to choosing the people or big-money, they have always sided with big-money.
I see that in the near future, small groups of people will get together to build their own power stations for their small community. It is now, monetarily speaking, almost within the purchasing power of small groups.

This is so good. I wish I hadn't missed the pay period.
The next ones will be better. Stay tuned.
What an outstanding article! Thanks for sharing, Builderfcastles. I agreed with what's said in the post.
Upvoted & Followed you as well.
Glad you enjoyed the article. There will be more... soonish.
May I ask what time (s) you like to check on steemit?
Mostly at noon.
Blue prints, steemit is here , collaborate, build , make cheap , way to go , that would get some eyes :D < geothermal , how low do you have to go , I've seen turbines that draw in water from the air, not much on energy generators , everything is developing , still , I remember a quote from somewhere , they say it's Tesla's , "There is a difference between technology and development"
Working on it. Drawings take a long time. Schematics take as long as actually building the object.
But, I am working on them.
An invention is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. - Edison
Wow , it's nice to hear most people talk the talk , I for one watch the watch :D and time goes by :D I'm so disconnected from the real world I doubt I can do much , last time I changed a light switch and it took me 1 hour and 5 attempts to get 2 wires in place , disassembled the switch 5 times :D that's my bes bet so far :D I can break thing :D
Nicely put, I love your work! Do you mind if I reference this post for a continued discussion?
You may reference my work. Get it to as many people as you can, please.
Ok, check out Eric P Dollard (ericpdollard.com) youtube.com (Tesla 2.0)
I have watched every Dollard video I could find. Fascinating. Unfortunately he is a slave to his addictions. I was really optimistic the help he was provided a few years ago and brought him out of obscurity was going to result in great discoveries. However his addictions got in the way. He has much to teach us though about the nature of electricity and magnetic energy, their relationship to one another and how they propagate.
Another interesting set of videos to watch are the series on the magnetic universe, aka Primer Fields:
Oh that is unfortunate, I heard he got sick in November... I haven't heard if he has gotten well again... there seem to be no updates on him
I am studying vector calculus, linear algebra and PHP/JS/WebGL... I plan on making some webpages using webGL dynamically generated meshes to simulate the implied geometry of Dollard's electricity and Ken Wheeler's Simplex Reverberating Hyperboloid geometry. Hopefully it won't take too long to work through the webGl... http://sparkone.servegame.com <-- it isn't anything right now but a rough draft, only old webGL projects there
Speaking of getting F.E. technology into the hands of as many people as possible, are you aware of any conferences being held here in the U.S. this year, for example the Breakthrough Energy Movement conference? I may not be able to attend but 1 or 2 so I'm looking for a list to choose from.
I do not know. All of the conferences I have seen, unless they are way-out-there conspiracy minded conference don't say anything real.
Eric Dollard doesn't really say anything real... mostly because he talks to the audience in general theories. Speaking at any depth is difficult because "science" has brainwashed all the science minded people. They have to be deprogrammed before you can even talk about definitions.
Also, specifically what I am propounding is 50 year old technology. I get most of my information from books and papers written in the 70s, or earlier. So, they are not very great for drawing a crowd.
Great thoughts. I still do not understand with geothermal having been proven to work how we still have old school heat pumps needing tremendous heat and lots of electricity to hear or cool a house.
You got a great point years back a high school student made batteries that charge from air, but the technology was bought by energized and Duracell never to be heard of again.
I think outside of solar energy your right on, there are working models that actually do work. Why not look into these, a small community of home owners could place something in the community to provide electric free to the small community does not need to be large scale. If these small communities take steps in there own we will cease dependence on the large corporations who are taking in profit for what? Their own gain not the benefit of the community.
I knew of a guy who had a solar electric powered house back before there were large solar panels.
When I say 1950s technology, I'm not kidding.
Long ago I realized that the large corporations/govern-cements could not be changed. As their goal is control at ANY cost. There is not turning them around. What is left is to go off and build all the things without them. Ignore them out of existence.
That seems like a great plan. If no one used the electric grid they would not have profit.
teensy little argument "Galactic energy and zero-point energy are also free energy devices." these are fields, devices would tap them. Love your work.
Galactic energy and zero-point energy both have several meanings.
The science definition is way off base.
The free-energy wanting community definition is close to correct, but theirs is just wishful thinking.
Free energy is very easy. However, it will not be available to mankind until he will not use it for war.
I expect about two generations.
And thanks. More to come.
