Compressed Air Vehicle for the U.S. The Air Car caused a huge stir when we reported last year that Tata Motors would begin producing it in India. Now the little gas-free ride that could is headed Stateside in a big-time way. Read More
Widescale Biodiesel Production from Algae What's it all about? Algae. As more evidence comes out daily of the ties between the leaders of petroleum producing countries and terrorists (not to mention the human rights abuses in their own countries), the incentive for finding an alternative to petroleum rises higher and higher.
Fuel from Thin Air Using concentrated solar energy to reverse combustion, a research team from Sandia National Laboratories is building a prototype device intended to chemically “reenergize” carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide using concentrated solar power. Read more
Almost Free Hydrogen Scientists have figured out a metohd for producing hydrogen that requires less energy to make than the output it creates. This has been one of the great obstacles to hydrogen adaptation. Read more
Kite Wind Researchers in Italy have high hopes for a new wind-power generator that resembles a backyard drying rack on steroids. Despite its appearance, the Kite Wind Generator, or KiteGen for short, could produce as much energy as a nuclear power plant............. Read more
Geothermal Gets Loopy A Geothermal Loop System sits securely in the earth underneath your home.
It's zig-zag grid of underground pipe acts like a giant, low-energy heating & cooling machine. The system transfers air, water, or coolant through hundreds of feet of underground plumbing. After passing that media through the plumbing, the air, water, or coolant reenters your building, passing over your HVAC's heating & cooling coils and saving you about 80% on your #1 energy expense..........Read More
New Development in Hydrogen Fuel Research Hydrogen-powered cars that do not pollute the environment are a step closer thanks to a new discovery which promises to solve the main problem holding back the technology. Invention could solve “bottleneck” in developing pollution-free cars.......Read More
