How Cities can reach 100% Renewable Energy.

12/13/13, 07:51 AM | Solar Power | Business Development
It's like having a blueprint to build a house, rather than just buying appliances, walls, and other parts. It is important to set out with a plan for what you want to end up with.

VOTO - Charging Batteries in a Fire

12/13/13, 07:51 AM | Energy Storage | Technology Discussions
One half of the VOTO is a fuel cell and the second half is a handle which has a light, cell phone adapter and nickel-metal hydride battery to store energy.

Is our current approach to energy sustainable?

12/13/13, 07:49 AM | Solar Power | Analysis and Trends
It seems that we've proven ourselves exceptionally able in arguing with one another. The time for that has passed. Nature will act if we don't.

Using Microbes to Produce Biofuel

12/13/13, 07:49 AM | EVs and Fuel Cells | Biomass Energy
Liquid fuels derived from plant biomass are one of the best alternatives if an inexpensive means of commercial production can be found. Major research efforts are focusing on fatty acids, which are the energy-rich molecules in living cells that have been dubbed nature's petroleum.

The Solar Energy Industry Sizzles, Offshore Wind Dies Down

11/15/13, 09:49 AM | Solar Power | Analysis and Trends
With so many major obstacles standing in the way of U.S. offshore wind energy, the plans to launch the renewable energy sites may never come to fruition. Such uncertainty can make it a high-risk investment and turn away many venture capitalists.

Investment in Clean Technologies

11/15/13, 09:49 AM | Solar Power | Analysis and Trends
The trends we are seeing reflect a broad spectrum of innovations, beyond energy generation (nevertheless a central pillar of clean technologies) to new commercialization models, to energy efficiency, to new applications of advances in materials sciences and molecular structures, and to resource sharing platforms enabled by the web.

More Power to You: Marines Boost Energy, Lighten Load

11/15/13, 09:49 AM | Solar Power | Technology Discussions
The Marine Austere Patrolling System (MAPS) combines solar power and an individual water purifier to help lighten the load of Marines conducting lengthy missions in remote locations with few or no options for resupply.
