MI&T Licenses WindFloat Platform

Principle Power announced that it has secured an exclusive license from Marine Innovation & Technology (MI&T) for the WindFloat, a floating foundation technology that could enable the development of deep-water offshore wind installations. MI&T have redesigned their original oil and gas specific platform structure by integrating support for wind turbines.

Abandoned Farmlands Are Key to Sustainable Bioenergy

Biofuels can be a sustainable part of the world's energy future, especially if bioenergy agriculture is developed on currently abandoned or degraded agricultural lands, report scientists from the Carnegie Institution and Stanford University. Using these lands for energy crops, instead of converting existing croplands or clearing new land, avoids competition with food production and preserves carbon-storing forests needed to mitigate climate change. Sustainable bioenergy is likely to satisfy no more than 10% of the demand in the energy-intensive economies of North America, Europe and Asia. But for some developing countries, notably in Sub-Saharan Africa, the potential exists to supply many times their current energy needs without compromising food supply or destroying forests.

Fourth of July Campaign Introduces Alternative to High Gas Prices

With millions of Americans expected to gas-up and head out for the July 4th weekend, producers of sugarcane ethanol want drivers to know that there is an alternative to continued increases in fuel prices. The "Are We There Yet?" campaign will introduce Americans to a lower-cost, higher efficiency fuel, ethanol derived from sugarcane and call on Congress to lift the tariff that artificially inflates the price of cane ethanol.
