Mirrors through a Fresnel Lens Super Beam. This answers the question, “can you get a super powered beam by concentrating several mirrors to one point through a Fresnel Lens. The same results would be expected from a parabolic mirror. The further away from the lens, the closer the beams are concentrated together because the angle changes.

Next Big Bio-Fuel – ALGAE
Friday, July 23rd, 2010
Bryan Garner, News Channel 5 visits a farm in Fellsmere that produces algae which replaces crude oil. Fred Tennant (Vice President of Petroalgae) says it is cheaper than oil, a lot cheaper. Arizona State developed this Algae and or process. Bits of algae fed with carbon dioxide grow dark green. From seed to harvest in just two days.
This video was taken before the gas reached the four dollar mark. The kick in the is that this company will not produce it for the public. So I don’t see it effecting pump prices, EVER!

Innowattech achieves breakthrough in generating alternative energy from railways
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010
In December 2009, an Israeli company, Innowattech Ltd., achieved a breakthrough by conducting the worlds first energy harvesting project on railways in Lod, Israel, coordinated by the Israeli Railways company.
Previously, Innowattech has conducted several first of their kind projects in cooperation with Israel National Roads Company, implementing the vehicular IPEG™ (Innowattech Piezoelectric Generator) along several highways in Israel.
The technology developed by Innowattech in association with Technion I.I.T (Israel Institute of Technology) is based on piezoelectric materials that enable conversion of mechanical energy exerted by the weight of passing railway cars into electrical energy.
One kilometer of Innowattech’s generators along a busy railway line is capable of producing an average of 120 KWh per hour, sufficient electricity to provide for the average consumption in about 100-150 households provided approximately 250 railways cars travel through the interval per hour on average.
The harvested electricity may be supplied to various rail signaling applications and other rail-side appliances, as well as transferred into the electric grid. The technology may also be used for rail data collection (Smart railroad).
The technology does not increase the railways energy consumption or affect the road infrastructure. It is not affected by weather conditions and allows electricity to be harvested near the end consumer.
The latest project followed the following steps:
@ Innowattech’s team is evaluating the site.
@ The sleepers are delivered to the site.
@ The generator embedded in the sleeper.
@ The existing sleepers are being replaced.
@ The gravel is dug from under the existing sleepers.
@ The existing sleepers are pulled out from under the rails.
@ The new sleepers are inserted in their place.
@ The gravel is re-inserted under and around the new sleepers.
@ The cables are attached to the generators and to the pilot measurement and control system.

Space Based Solar Power – Alternative Energy Solution
Saturday, May 8th, 2010
FACT: There aren’t enough resources on this planet to sustain continued human growth and increasing quality of life.
FACT: If we want to avoid catastrophic war, suffering, and global shortages of energy, we need to start looking to space seriously for solutions.
Space Based Solar Power is the first step.
