A Very, Very Bright Idea
January 30th, 2010 by ComputerBob
As a technophile, I’m always interested in new technologies — whether they’re demonstrated in tiny, consumer-oriented gadgets or in huge, ecologically friendly infrastructures.
Here’s a new technology of the latter type that appears to have a lot of promise for the future: “A Louisville, Colorado, company says it has perfected a solar-energy technology capable of producing 100 million gallons of synthetic gasoline annually from corn stalks and wood chips.”
The secret is to concentrate free energy from the sun to convert biomass into usable energy.
Relatively carbon-neutral energy.
Renewable energy.
I wish them well.
