"Energy efficiency, diversity - including technology - and new sources of domestic supply are vital to sound U.S. climate policy. Congress must include domestic energy supply in any climate bill."
Given the global consensus on climate change, world leadership has looked at growth in India and China with increasing alarm. The prior experience of industrially-developing countries worldwide would suggest that as an economy grows, it consumes more and more energy. Given currently available energy and technology options, this in turn leads to increased carbon emissions into the environment.
Ormat Technologies, Inc., today announced that one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries has executed a new 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Great River Energy (GRE), a Minnesota cooperative corporation of Elk River, Minnesota for electricity to be produced by a new ORMAT(R) Recovered Energy Generation (REG) facility.
ThermoEnergy Corporation today announced the release of an engineering study by Parsons-Brinckerhoff, one of the world's leading planning, engineering, and construction management organizations, demonstrating that the use of the Company's Ammonia Recovery Process results in substantial reductions in carbon emissions for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants versus conventional biological methods for the treatment and removal of nitrogen/ammonia.
Finding energy efficient hotels across the country has become even easier for travelers searching out green travel options. Making an important addition to its eco-travel microsite, launched in April 2007, Orbitz now recognizes hotels that earn the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) ENERGY STAR(R) -- the national mark of excellence in energy efficiency.
MIT and Fraunhofer, a German research organization, have signed an agreement to establish a research center in Massachusetts focused on significantly reducing the cost of solar energy over the next five years.
