     This is great. It looks like it would be relatively cheap and not so monstrous like a wind mill. I sure hope it comes to market...

    POPS    SunPower announces 22 percent efficient solar panels

     I wonder how long till they get around 50%, or if that's even possible. Anyway, it's really awesome to see advances like this. The SPR-315 solar panel is based on the company's brand spankin' new Gen 2 solar cells, which have a rated power output of 315 watts and boast 22 percent photovoltaic (PV) efficiency -- that's opposed to the 7% to 17% common in most commercial PV systems.

     It's getting closer and closer to the car from back to the future. Stick a bag of garbage in your gas tank and you're good to go for a couple days, um or maybe years of time travel....

    POPS    awesome resource for biodiesel including where to get it

     The second sentence on the home page starts: From Henry Ford's thwarted plans to fuel the nation with crop waste to Saudi Arabia's most guarded secret I am now on a mission to figure out what is behind this. Henry Ford had the foresight to build for biodiesel... I want to know who, why, where, and how his plans got "thwarted".

    POPS    Ford Escape Hybrid E85

     Now if they just make it bigger! Seriously though, this is really awesome. A hybrid that will run on ethanol. Not only will it get great gas or ethanol mileage, but it will run clean even when using fuel! "Ethanol is renewable, made from virtually limitless feedstocks, and does not come from fossil energy sources such as petroleum or natural gas," said Brian Rippon, policy manager, Global Public Policy, Government Affairs. "It can also reduce greenhouse gas emissions because the process of making it recaptures carbon. No other currently available vehicle technology or alternative fuel - including hybrids or natural gas - provides those benefits."

    POPS    If only they would have taken que from Henry Ford!

      Ford's research into ethanol goes all the way back to Henry Ford's Model T, designed to run on ethanol, gasoline, or a combination of the two. I think my jaw hit the floor when I read this. I really wonder why it took them this long to figure out that he was on to something all those years ago. I'd also like to know why they chose something dirty and hard to get like oil vs something clean and renewable like ethanol.
