Recycling electronics is never easy, so it's extremely helpful when electronics companies take it upon themselves to help out. Panasonic announced today that is creating a program in the United States to let consumers easily recycle Panasonic products free of charge. The program, which is scheduled to start November 1, is being managed by the Electronic Manufacturers Recycling Management Company-a joint venture between Panasonic, Toshiba, and Sharp.

Unable to retrench like their unregulated counterparts, utilities are investing more than they were just a few years ago while paying record spreads over risk-free rates for financing. At the same time, revenues are under pressure due to softening power prices and an economically driven drop in demand. The past three months have seen a 1.8 per cent drop in US power usage versus the same period a year ago, according to the Edison Electric Institute. Adding insult to injury, Macquarie Research reckons regulators might become less generous when setting rates since compressed Treasury note yields may be used to justify a lower regulated return on equity.

The Chinese government is supporting the copper industry by eliminating taxes on copper concentrate imports and finished copper products exports. China is the world's top copper consumer and according to Antaike Chinese copper consumption in 2009 will grow by 2.1%, revised down from its previous forecast of more than 6%. The duty-free trading policies will benefit copper smelters and fabricators, however, weak global demand will continue to take its toll on Chinese exports.

Nexans has introduced a full range cable qualified for projects in places with extremely low temperatures such as the Arctic. The new product is called ICEFLEX and it features advanced flexibility, something that cables with conventional insulation fail to achieve. It is a halogen-free marine and offshore cable that remains flexible in temperatures of -50 C. Considering the growing number of oil and gas projects in the Artic, the new cable has good sales prospects.

Members will not charge royalties for patents that are essential for implementing low power receivers. A wireless power receiver is a 'low power receiver' when it is a consumer product, such as a mobile phone or battery, capable of receiving no more than 5 Watt from a wireless power transmitter. These royalty-free licenses are available until 2014.

Aluminium Corporation of China Daye Plate & Strip Co. Ltd. (Chinalco Daye) said that it has developed high precision copper strip that could be used in production of 3G communication cable. Chinalco Daye has a designed capacity of 60,000t of high precision copper sheet and strip, and 73,500t copper strip slab. The company produced 2,000t 5PPM high grade oxygen free copper casting ingot from March to July this year.

The technology is capable of carrying 10 times as much power as copper wires of the same size, while also being able to automatically adapt to power surges and disruptions from lightning strikes, heat waves, and traffic accidents, even sabotage. A single superconductor cable can replace 12 copper cable bundles, freeing up more space underground for other utility needs like water, natural gas, or phone service.

Skyline Solar today introduced the Skyline X14 System and announced that it has been selected for a 500-kilowatt (kW) concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) plant to be built in Durango, Mexico. DelSol Systems, one of Mexico's leading solar integrators, will construct the project, which will be the largest CPV plant in Latin America.

It was reported that Xinxing Copper Co. successfully increased its production capacity of oxygen-free copper rod to 150,000t/y in October after the new casting and rolling line was formally opened for production in the month prior. The project is part of a RMB3.0B strategic cooperation agreement between the Fuyang municipal government and Xinxing Copper Co. to build operations capable of producing 150,000t/y of high grade semis and 300,000t/y of refined copper.

"Copper interconnects have served the electronics industry since its infancy. Wire terminated with separable connectors enables equipment to be efficiently assembled as well as deliver power and signals to/from the host of electronic devices we take for granted today, but change is brewing. The explosion of mobile devices has begun to alter traditional connectivity with demand for interfaces that free the device from the tether of signal and power cables."
