Green Technology

The stimulus package is expected to be passed this weekend, which is not a moment too soon for the wind and solar energy sectors.

The American electricity grid is a century old. There are approximately 157,000 miles of high voltage electric transmission lines in the U.S.. Since 1990, electricity demand has increased 25 percent, but construction of power plants has decreased 30 percent. As the Department of Energy (DOE) states, the biggest challenge for electric distribution is "responding to rapidly changing customer needs for electricity." Enter a smart grid.

Some green electricity offer from Scottish Hydro Electric-have to think about this-my green consciousness must be enhanced.

Steady Doubling of Sales While Economy Suffers We have seen steady growth in INTK. In mid June INTK announced sales in June of 2009 were $100,552.85, more than double the revenues of June of 2008, a year when annual revenues were $1,424,036.00 US. Industrial Nanotech, Inc. intends to meet or exceed their uninterrupted five year track record of approximately doubling revenues every year. I want to put this in perspective. The economy is terrible. Sacred cow companies are losing ground. Utilities have always been super steady but they are having trouble --- and yet ---- INTK keeps on doubling sales year over year.

A Utah-based company has found a new way to store solar energy - in a small ceramic disk which can store more power for less. Researchers at Ceramatec have created the disk, which can hold up to 20-kilowatt hours, enough to power an entire house for a large portion of the day.

Wow! Incredible use of Solar Power! Hope they start using these in Puget Sound!
