I have it on good intelligence that the Obama administration is preparing to aggressively promote a major expansion of America’s nuclear energy capacity as the quickest way to fast track the huge amounts of fresh grid energy needed to supply the rapi
The value of this device is to displace a lot of charcoal out of the heating market. The device itself is up to the task of producing boiled water and that means hot beverages and also the production of stews. It may not seem like a lot, but if you a

A stiff wind blows year-round in North Dakota. In Arizona the sun beats down virtually every day. The U.S. has vast quantities of renewable electricity sources waiting to be tapped in these regions, but what it does not have there are power lines—big
The British engineer climbed into the land yacht he calls the Ecotricity Greenbird and peeled off a 126.1-mph run across a California desert Thursday to take his place in the record books.
Tesla Motors, based in San Marcos, CA, unveiled its Model S sedan, a car that the company has been promising for years. The biggest change compared to the company's Roadster sports car, other than the appearance and price (the base price is half
Making a solar shower is easy. But what if the sun is buried behind a blanket of clouds? Do you go without hot water? Watch how Darren Doherty of Permaculture.biz solves the problem.
Global system revenues for sub-utility scale Renewable Distributed Energy Generation (RDEG) grew at a breakneck pace between 2007 and 2008, rising 76% to an estimated $29.9 billion at the end of 2008, according to a new report from Pike Research
Think US demand at 15,000,000 barrels per day and then consider that this technology can replace all that demand out of Alberta just as quickly as we can drill 1000 barrel per day shallow horizontal production wells. That is exactly 15,000 wells in t
This is a timely reminder that THAI technology is continuing to advance. Petrobank Energy is currently building out a CAPRI/THAI pilot well series to complete the technology validation stage. This is the first commercial field rollout of the techn
This research has tossed up a surprising result. Wind power can be easily integrated into a power grid by a combination of more finely managed power plant operations on a timely basis (remember just in time?) and building more flexibility into the po
Although we are now moving to get out of the oil business which well we should, how much oil do we really have that is recoverable? Because of this price shock and the flap over global warming which is a direct challenge to take all fossil fuels of l
"Crude oil fell on concern that fuel demand in the US... may decline, as a report showed the number of newly jobless climbed to a 26-year high," said BetOnMarkets analyst Dave Evans.
The application goes on to describe a new form of utility garment that includes body armor among other things. Specifically, the application discusses that the electrical energy storage unit "substantially conforms to an armour plate." The
The ability to split the carbon-carbon bond and generate CO2 at room temperature is a completely new feature of catalysis," Adzic said. "There are no other catalysts that can achieve this at practical potentials."
You cannot come away from this article but to be sure that the systems described will nicely consume all our uranium waste problems while supplying massive grid power anywhere needed.

How much longer can the American people be fooled concerning our looming energy crisis? Find out the fraud of alternative energies and how they cannot compare or replace oil when it runs out. Ever hear of Hobson's Choice? We're facing it!
Jan. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Crude oil fell below $33 a barrel in New York as the strengthening dollar reduced the appeal of commodity investments at a time when demand is declining and stockpiles are rising.
Konarka, a solar-cell startup based in Lowell, MA, has opened a commercial-scale factory, with the capacity to produce enough organic solar cells every year to generate one gigawatt of electricity, the equivalent of a large nuclear reactor.
Dense films of carbon nanotubes store large amounts of energy.
The global economic crisis has cost Arab countries $2,500bn (£1,690bn) in the last four months alone, according to Kuwait's foreign minister.
Too many TV manufacturers have been able to meet the goals of the government's voluntary energy star program, so they've got to raise expectations. Why doesn't it work this way with autos?
CNBC's team at the Detroit Auto Show shot some video of the car, described by the manufacturer as a "mid-size five passenger crossover vehicle" with a range of about 250 miles on a single charge.
High power line workers are conveyed to high tension lines via helicopter. (Helllll No!)
SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Oil hovered below $43 on Thursday after tumbling 12 percent overnight, its largest percentage drop in seven years, as a U.S. government report showed crude stocks rose much more than expected in the world's top energy consum
The flight was the first by a US carrier to use an alternative fuel source, and the first in the world to use a twin-engine commercial aircraft (rather than a four-engine plane) to test a biofuel blend.
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered and demonstrated a new method for overcoming two major hurdles facing solar energy.
Russia sharply cut gas flows to Europe via Ukraine on Tuesday in a dramatic worsening of a pricing dispute with Kiev that threatened to disrupt supplies as far west as Italy and Germany. Russian export monopoly Gazprom said it supplied some 65 millio
Almost 4 Decades ago the Oil Co. found the Largest oil fields in the world in our own back yard. Estimated to be over 200 years worth of oil and Natural gas was capped and left out of production. Russa has had simler finds at 47,000 feet.
