Smart grid technology is years, possibly decades away from being accepted nationally. Right now, it is being tested in several places so that the best business model can be uncovered and small foul ups can be caught early and fixed.

This is a wonderful showerhead, which can help you to get a spa experience in your home everyday. An Oxygenics showerhead will also help to reduce the consumption of water during your shower.

The WORX ECO WG780 is a very effective appliance for the maintenance of your lawn. The biggest advantage of this unit is that it runs on battery and therefore more environment friendly.

This dual flush toilet is very useful for domestic and light commercial use. As it uses a dual flush system, it is capable of saving 80% of the water that is used in a normal toilet system.

Smart grid technology can affect energy pricing in two ways: raising the rates for high-demand peak periods and lowering it during off-peak times.

What if you need a 5/16-inch wrench, right now? You go to the neighborhood tool sharing company, pay a nominal rental fee and rent the wrench you need.

A Better Place is an ecologically forward thinking company that has won awards for its new battery switching station - a drive-up kiosk that looks like a carwash where depleted electric and hybrid car batteries are removed and replaced while the driver remains in the car.

The seven spray water saving hose nozzle is a wonderful device that regulates the flow of additional water savings. It is made up of a medium duty plastic body and is very much durable.

If you want to clean your lawn and keep it green, you can very well use an earth wise cordless leaf blower. This leaf blower is ideal for any light jobs around in the yard.

This product is a very effective 22 inches cordless hedge trimmer. It is very comfortable for use, as it is cordless and runs on battery. The battery used in the system is a 18 volt NiCad one.

This electric chain saw is very effective for use as it runs on tool less chain tension system. It can be used for cutting any part of your furniture. You can use it with quite ease as it is quite comfortable to grip the system.

Battery switching technologies make it cheaper and easier to own an electric vehicle. Without the battery, the cost of an electric vehicle (EV) is comparable to that of a traditional car without the problems of oil, gas, and maintenance issues.

This appliance is a 3 in 1 blower which can be used to clean your lawn, the inside of your car, or any corner of your house. The unit has a powerful air speed which varies between 140 miles per hour to 250 miles per hour.

For the first time, climate scientists from across the country have successfully incorporated the nitrogen cycle into global simulations for climate change, questioning previous assumptions regarding carbon feedback and potentially helping to refine model forecasts about global warming. The results of the experiment at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory and at the National Center for Atmospheric Research are published in the current issue of Biogeosciences. They illustrate the complexity of climate modeling by demonstrating how natural processes still have a strong effect on the carbon cycle and climate simulations. In this case, scientists found that the rate of climate change over the next century could be higher than previously anticipated when the requirement of plant nutrients are included in the climate model. ORNL's Peter Thornton, lead author of the paper, describes the inclusion of these processes as a necessary step to improve the accuracy of climate change assessments.

In continued efforts to promote clean energy, U.S. House Representative Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) has introduced the Solar Technology Roadmap Act, which is now on its way to the full House after achieving commendable bipartisan support after short deliberation in the Science and Technology Committee. Giffords' bill would designate the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) as the leading organization for developing a strategic plan to direct solar energy research and its deployment into the commercial sector. The legislation would also allocate $2.25 billion for solar research over the next five years, which is a far cry from the pro-oil Bush administration that pillaged funding for renewables.

Kinetic energy is formed whenever we move around we drive around. Harnessing that power by various forms of technology allows that energy to be transformed into electrical power and used for a number of applications.

Instead of having to recharge your battery for your electric vehicle (EV) you would simply drive to the nearest battery switching spot and the battery would be changed while you wait. This is a simple process that does not take longer than ten minutes.
