The purpose of the Global Bioenergy Partnership is to provide a mechanism for Partners to organize, coordinate and implement targeted international research, development, demonstration and commercial activities related to production, delivery, conversion and use of biomass for energy
Tired of Waiting for Hot Water?
The ready-for-retrofit Comfort System is a one-pump, one-valve combo that's typically installed in an existing home by a professional, usually within a couple hours - without the need to install a return line to the water heater.
Changing America's Economic Lifeblood from Oil to Ingenuity
We can change the lifeblood of our economy from oil to ingenuity. It is that way in communications. It was that way with transportation. Open rights of way to innovation. Ingenuity will flourish or fail based on the value created minus the cost to compete.
China's Solar Energy Industry: Polysilicon 2007-2011
China's 2005 Renewable Energy Law called for the country to increase its renewable energy consumption to 10 percent of the total by 2020. Without sufficient supply of domestic polysilicon, this goal, as well as solar cell export goals, will be difficult to meet.
Cultured Micro-Algae Produces Omega-3 Bio-Lipid Oil
Bio-Lipid oil can also be used to produce one of the lowest cost and most environmentally friendly fuels known to man: bio-diesel. Bio-diesel made from bio-lipid oil, from micro-algae, burns cleaner, produces less CO2 (with no sulfur dioxide emissions) than petroleum based diesel fuels, and it's renewable and sustainable.

Fuel Cells Do Some Heavy Lifting
While fuel cell passenger vehicles are still several years down the road, forklifts provide an excellent framework to showcase the potential of fuel cell technology while providing a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly alternative for distribution centers.
Humbugs Along the Potomac
EIA's monthly and annual predictions have only one purpose: to prevent the mainstream media from alerting the driving public to the fragility of the domestic energy picture.
Just Why aren't Algae Getting the Attention they Deserve?
With all of us now keen on doing our best to find out those alternative energy avenues that will make or break civilization fifty years from now, it is imperative that individuals and professionals try to convince their governments, corporations & scientific research institutions of the need to put in more research into exploring algae as a feedstock for oil.

Next Generation of PV is emerging NOW!
I think the PV industry will TRIPLE in size in the next 4 years and I think the Thin Film segment of the PV industry will increase over TEN FOLD in the next 4 years.
On Energy Supply, Human Population, Earth's Climate, and Financial Prosperity
By grouping appropriate items together in summary fashion, we see that 48% of energy is used in the home, in one form or another.
The next big use is the 44% that is used at work in various forms.
Finally, a final 8% is used in transport.
