Debunking the Myth of Alternative Energy

October 26, 2006

The Myth Of Alternative Energy | www.countercurrents.org

The article is so filled with technical ignorance that has been proven long ago that it should not be dignified with a response.  Why it appears on a professional site is beyond me.

Oil is not anything approaching a perfect fuel, even if global warming or the need for humans to breathe unpolluted air didn't exist.

Renewable energy can replace all current and projected energy use, in all necessary forms, within decades, period.

An Old Idea Gains New Converts

October 26, 2006

Floating Wind Turbines the Wave of the Future | www.renewableenergyaccess.com

Floating wind turbines were first proposed in the early 1970's by the chief designer of the Nautilus class of nuclear submarines, Prof. Wm. E. Heronemus.  He proposed an Apollo program to use offshore windpower to make hydrogen around the globe.  This energy would be used to replace all fossil fuels.

Research programs in Europe, Japan, and even the US have produced floating designs, most based upon oil rig technical development.

5 MW Wind Turbines become a reality

September 8, 2006

Five Megawatt Turbine Installed Offshore | www.renewableenergyaccess.com


- 5 MW (and even 6 MW) wind turbines start to enter the market
 
- 5 MW prototypes are considered tested enough to be used in very demanding offshore locations

- 5 to 6 MW turbines will restart the European offshore wind energy market

China Makes Cleaner Energy a Priority

August 14, 2006

China's renewable energy targets to cost billions: | www.marketwatch.com

China is taking major steps to develop renewable energy, opening enormous opportunities and challenges for this emerging industry.

On both the household scale, with solar hot water heaters, and on the massive scale where utility-scale wind energy farms are being planned and built, China promises to become a leader in the use of energy from solar, wind and hydro.

Trend toward large advance purchases of wind turbines continues

July 17, 2006

BP, Clipper Windpower to Develop U.S. Wind Projects | www.bloomberg.com

The recent market trend in the wind industry has been for large multi-year frame orders of wind turbines.That trend continues with BP's purchase of Clipper wind turbines.The announcement represents BP's first serious foray into the wind industry as well as Clipper's first major order of their Liberty wind turbines.

This purchase, along with other recent frame orders, shows a continuation of a trend in the wind industry for large balance-sheet companies to make large orders of wind turbines years in advance in order to ensure access to wind turbines to feed their project pipeline.
