Renewable Energy

We're going to run out of any kind of fossil fuels, so we need to move on to a renewable source.

Turning algae into the next renewable resource by making it in to plastics, bio fuels, nutritional supplements as well as animal feed. The algae will be grown in the non-potable water that is left over from reverse osmosis.
The University of Texas at Austin has increased its total annual energy production efficiency by almost 30% over the last 13 years. 150 million in energy efficiency improvements were paid for by reduced fuel consumption. Juan Ontiveros, director of... Read More

Algae are simple photosynthetic organisms that are an original carbon source for petroleum products. Researchers at Arizona State University are growing algae and converting it into fuel. In this video ASU researchers explain how their turning... Read More
The fight between Edison and Tesla continues. AC adapters or AC to DC Inverters? the idea is to have a dual-power-type grid system. Xolargy is consultant group who specialise in alternative energy problem solving and design solutions studio. These... Read More
We create waste that can be reused to create the energy, products and foodstuffs we consume. We can divert our entire waste stream to create jobs, energy(heat and/or electricity) and food for ourselves at the municipal level or microscale these... Read More
It may seem gross, and that's primarily because it is. Cows are king of converting plant material into energy so it's no wonder that researchers have begun to look to bovine for answers. Everyday the average cow digests 150 pounds of plant material... Read More
