Perspective: Despite Solyndra’s death, the future of solar energy is sunny

Green Car Congress

Remember when the dot.com bubble burst in 2000 and, seemingly overnight, some companies ceased making millions hand-over-fist? With subsidies long in place for nuclear, coal and gas in the US along with the cheap cost of production for coal and natural gas, solar is essentially competing with that $0.10/kWh Resources. [

What to note about EV charger installation?

Setec Powerr

The cost of public charging stations is too high? However, the general level 3 chargers are mainly for commercial use and are very costly. For example, the SETEC Power 30kW Tesla charger does not require high costs, while the 30kW charging power provides enough charging time to satisfy you.

giga tonne carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO 2 eq) (2.2%) per year from 2000 to 2010 compared to 0.4 GtCO 2 eq (1.3%) per year from 1970 to 2000. Total anthropogenic GHG emissions were the highest in human history from 2000 to 2010 and reached 49 (±4.5) Estimates of the economic costs of mitigation vary widely.

ExxonMobil Outlook: 35% growth in energy demand by 2040; hybrids to account for ~50% of new vehicle sales

Green Car Congress

ExxonMobil projects that meeting future energy demand will be supported by more efficient energy-saving practices and technologies; increased use of less-carbon-intensive fuels such as natural gas, nuclear and renewables; as well as the continued development of technology advances to develop new energy sources.

W m -2 relative to 2000. This increase may be as much as one-fifth to one-quarter of the expected increase in radiative forcing due to the buildup of CO 2 since 2000, according to the SRES emission scenarios. By 2050, the buildup of HFCs is projected to increase radiative forcing by up to 0.4 Non-HFC substances. Climate-friendly HFCs.

The New Supersonic Boom

Cars That Think

Although military aircraft were breaking the sound barrier daily during the 1950s and '60s, commercial passenger flights during this time remained limited to subsonic speeds. Today's airliners travel no faster than their counterparts of 60 years ago—indeed, they tend to fly somewhat slower to reduce fuel costs. Boom Supersonic.
