[BIOENERGY] Ethanol passes key transportation test
2008-10-17 06:48:00
Houston pipeline operator Kinder Morgan Energy Partners signaled progress Wednesday in addressing a key hurdle to widespread distribution of renewable fuels in the U.S. The company said it completed a test in Florida that moved ethanol safely through an existing gasoline pipeline and is performing similar tests with biodiesel fuel blends.The tests could be important for a U.S. biofuels industry that now transports fuel only by truck, rail car and barge, and will require more efficient transportation options as it grows.Kinder Morgan and other pipeline companies are still in the early stages of testing. Huge investments will be needed if the companies decide to ready more assets to handle biofuels, and upgrades could take years.Yet Kinder Morgan's moves suggest a willingness to explore the idea further.Pipeline operators have been reluctant to run ethanol in pipelines because it absorbs debris, rust and water, can damage components and taint petroleum fuels that share the lines.

[TECHNOLOGY] submarino que funciona íntegramente con energía solar
2008-09-03 07:34:00
La Exposición Internacional de Zaragoza fue ayer el escenario de la presentación del primer submarino solar del mundo. Goldfish, así se llama el proyecto de origen suizo, se mueve gracias a una plataforma solar flotante y móvil que tiene forma de nenúfar. Dicha plataforma está equipada con una central solar y una estación de recarga y es adaptable a múltiples aplicaciones industriales, turísticas o de transportes. Sus creadores, los ingenieros Martin Pfisterer y Matthias Zelweger, explicaron ayer en el pabellón de Suiza el funcionamiento y las ventajas que ofrece el proyecto, desarrollado por la empresa eléctrica BKW-FMB Energie, y la compañía de transportes BLS SA, ambas ubicadas en el cantón de Berna. El estudio de viabilidad del proyecto concluyó el pasado mes de junio con el resultado de que «es realizable desde el punto de vista técnico y puede obtener los permisos de explotación necesarios». Los costes para materializar la iniciativa se elevan a 10 millones de francos suizos y...

[RUSSIA] Investors Bet Millions on the Sun
2008-08-29 00:41:00
The image of Russia as a dark northern country that lives off its fossil fuels might be well-founded. But companies that rely on global demand for solar energy and Russia's scientific base have investors convinced.The next step: convincing their own government.Nitol Solar, a private company in the east Siberian town of Usolye-Sibirskoye, has raised $600 million in investment since opening five years ago, including $190 million from Alfa Bank on Aug. 12 and $75 million from the World Bank's International Finance Corporation in late July.The latest investment agreements were signed after Nitol Solar produced its first batch of polysilicon, an energy-intensive raw material that is the main component of solar cells.Nitol Solar's production of polysilicon was big news in the solar power market, which currently provides about 1 percent of global energy consumption and has been growing rapidly in the past couple of years, fueled by rising energy costs and environmental awareness.

[WIND ENERGY] FCC of Spain buys into wind energy
2008-08-22 19:10:00
Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, or FCC, one of the largest Spanish builders, agreed to pay ?190 million for Babcock & Brown Wind Partners' wind energy assets in Spain .FCC will assume ?590 million, or about $880 million, in debt as part of the deal, the company, which is based in Barcelona, said in a filing to regulators. The assets include 14 wind parks with capacity of 421 megawatts.The purchase marks FCC's first investment in energy as it embarks on a ?4 billion drive announced in May to diversify its business as the Spanish building market slumps. The sale of the assets will yield a profit of about 266 million Australian dollars, or $234 million, for Babcock & Brown Wind Partners, the company said in a statement to Australian regulators."The size of the total portfolio is substantial and will allow FCC to become the sixth-largest wind-energy operator in Spain," Alejandra Cosio, an analyst at Ahorro Corporación Financiera, wrote in a note.Buying the Spanish wind p...

CLIMATE CHANGE: China and India called keys in climate change battle
2008-05-08 18:23:00
If the world is going to truly combat greenhouse gas emissions, China and India have to be part of the fight, the chief economist for the Paris-based International Energy Agency said Tuesday. Fatih Birol told oil and gas executives at the Offshore Technology Conference in Houston that the economies of China and India are growing at such a pace that they'll keep needing more energy, much of it from coal. Even if Europe cuts emissions by 20 percent in the next dozen years as pledged, it won't be enough to overcome emissions anticipated to increase in the developing giants, he said.But don't blame China, the bigger of the two, he said.China's growth is "simply imitating" what developed countries have already done. Americans love their cars, and increasingly the Chinese do as well, driving most of the increase in that country's demand.The nation is expected to overtake the U.S. in terms of car ownership in seven to eight years. And by 2030, 14 percent of Chinese will have cars, as...

BRASIL: The brazilian government rejects biofuels criticism
2008-05-07 20:58:00
The Brazilian president has rejected criticism that his country's production of biofuels has forced a surge in global food prices and harms the environment. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva accused critics of being driven by economic and political interests, and failing to highlight soaring oil prices and increased demand as a factor in pushing up food production costs."Don't tell me, for the love of God, that food is expensive because of biodiesel," he told reporters."Food is expensive because the world wasn't prepared to see millions of Chinese, Indians, Africans, Brazilians and Latin Americans eat. We want to discuss this not with passion but rationality and not from the European point of view."Lula made his comments following a week of protests in Brazil and Europe against the fuels made from food crops and their supposed environmental and social consequences.This week, the EU's environmental chief, Stavros Dimas, said that biofuels, which Brazil hopes to export to the EU, must now...

ENERGY CRISIS: Food shortages and incredible arguments
2008-05-07 20:52:00
I find this talk of genetically modified food being necessary to feed the world's population incredible ('As the world begins to starve it's time to take GM seriously', Comment, last week). Yes, it would get us out of a scrape in the short term, but we have to realise that we cannot carry on expanding the population and consuming resources without consequences. If the population continues to grow, we will reach a situation where even GM cannot feed everyone, never mind competing for space, water, a clean environment and the chance for other species to exist. Overpopulation is the biggest single cause of our environmental woes and we cannot make significant improvements without addressing this.Ryan Taylor, London SW9Crop yields need to increase by 1.6 per cent per year (compounded) to avoid mass starvation.

JAPAN: Tony Blair Urges `Revolutionary' Carbon Emission Cuts
2008-03-15 22:21:00
Former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair urged the U.S., Japan and European nations to make ``revolutionary'' cuts to greenhouse gases responsible for global warming.``Since poorer nations will see their emissions rise as they industrialize, and since the world population may well grow from 6 to 9 billion, emissions in the richer nations will have to fall close to zero,'' Blair said at energy and environmental talks in Chiba City near Tokyo.Ministers of the Group of Eight industrialized nations and representatives from 12 other countries discussed how to finance technological efforts to tackle climate change, and the basis for a successor to the Kyoto Protocol that expires in 2012.U.S. emissions of greenhouse gases total 20 tons a year per person, twice as much as in Europe and Japan, Blair said. The world's average emission level may need to fall to as low as 2 tons per person to halve global output of the harmful gases by 2050, he said.``If the average person in the U.S. is to e...
