The UK government's renewables consultation called for a green revolution in energy. In doing so, it created a perfect tabloid rod for its own back. The proposed cost-to-consumer calculated by the Department of Business were based on the vanishingly unlikely prospect of an oil price as low as $70 a barrel in 2020. Expected additions to UK energy bills, at that oil price, would be 10-13% for electricity and 18-37% for gas, the government said.

On Thursday, while visiting Jefferson City, Mo., with Commerce Secretary Gary Locke, Vice President Joe Biden announced that, as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, more than $3.3 billion in smart grid technology development grants and an additional $615 million for smart grid storage, monitoring, and technology viability were being made available. "By investing in updating the grid now, we will lower utility bills for American families and businesses, lessen our dependence on foreign oil and create good jobs that will drive our economic recovery-a strong return on our investment," Biden said.

It seems the new initiative would certainly become handy in the times of recession.

What is polysorbate 80 in food Polysorbate 80 uses in pharmaceuticals is a synthetic non-ionic emulsifier, widely used in cosmetics, food and pharmaceutical preparations. Its industrial manufacturing method is: under the condition of alkali catalysis, the addition reaction of ethylene oxide with sorbitol fatty acid esters and sorbitol fatty acid esters is carried out, in which every 1mol of sorbitol or corresponding sorbitol anhydride is added to 20mol of epoxy ethane. 1. Types of polysorbates The most common types of polysorbates are polysorbate 20, 40, 60, 65 and 80. In addition, there are also polysorbate 21, 61, 81 and 85. Polysorbate at room temperature is paste-like or in a form of sticky oily liquid with a color between light beige and light yellow. Polysorbate has good thermal stability. Because the long polyoxyethylene chain, the hydrophilic group is the dominant component of the entire emulsifier molecule. 2. Brief introduction of polysorbate 80 Polysorbate 80 is hydrophilic which have large HLB values of 15.0 that belongs to O/W type emulsifier. The surface activity of polysorbate 80 emulsifier is not affected by environmental pH and can significantly reduce the interfacial tension of soybean oil/water system at a very low use concentration (0.05%). Polysorbate 80 is water-soluble, and can help lipophilic substances which are insoluble in water dissolve in water. Polysorbate 80 is widely used in the food industry. It can be used as emulsifier, stabilizer and dispersing agent in baked goods and used in bread, cake, ice cream and shortening. They can also be used to prepare flavorings containing oil soluble flavor substances. Guangdong runhua Chemistry Co., Ltd. is a professional global chemical engineering company based in China.

AFS Trinity Power has developed patent-pending technology that makes it possible for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles to achieve 150 MPG, go 40 miles in all-electric mode, and use gasoline for additional unlimited miles in hybrid mode. In July 2007, in order to very quickly demonstrate all of the key attributes of this technology, the company mounted an effort to build two fully operational XH-150 SUV prototypes using off-the-shelf components. The two vehicles-modified Saturn Vue SUVs-were built in less than six months. They were unveiled on January 13, 2008 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit (Press Announcement) and (Salon.com test drive report).
