Aerogels - This 87-year old technology will improve ultracapacitors by swapping in carbon nanotubes, since they have a extremely high surface area, carbon aerogels are used to create ultracapacitors with values ranging up to thousands of farads. It is already used a a super-insulator and for collecting stardust by NASA. (PESWiki; August 18, 2008)

- Fuel Efficiency >
Electric Freight Rail 8X More Efficient than Heavy Trucks - Electrifying railroads and transferring half of the ton-miles of trucks to rail could save 6.3% of US oil consumption. Electric railroads, well-proven in other countries, are cheaper to operate and can carry more freight because they accelerate and brake faster (and can generate electricity while braking, saving energy), and have no delays for refueling.

Shelby SuperCars (SSC) to Build World's Fastest Electric Car - The Ultimate Aero EV is based on the SSC Aero, the world's fastest production car. The EV will be powered by a 500 horsepower electric motor. The drive train will feature a revolutionary power source allegedly allowing for several years between charging (not a typo).

- Nanotechnology >
Carbon Nanotubes and other Nanotechnology Solutions for Renewable Energy - From vastly increasing efficiencies in solar power to reducing costs of hydrogen generation, the alternative energy sector is seeing a range of nanotech developments. Reducing the amount of raw product necessary for technology production, carbon nanotechnology cuts costs and conserves our precious non-renewable resources. (PESWiki; Aug. 13, 2008)

- Fuel Efficiency > Hydrogen Injection >
Ronn Motors' Scorpion the First to Implement Hydrogen Boosting - New $150,000 green sports car will integrate Hydrorunner's (http://www.hydrorunner.com) on-board electrolysis unit to inject hydrogen into the air intake to catalyze a more efficient burn of the petrol, increasing its mileage by 20-40%.

- Fuel Efficiency > Spark Plugs >
Firestorm Spark Plug - This revolutionary design creates an electric plasma that fills the entire combustion chamber like a firestorm. It allows you to take an internal combustion engine from the standard 14.7:1 air-to-fuel ratio to an incredibly lean 24:1. At this ratio, all the air/fuel mixture is burned much more efficiently without increasing heat, thus giving an engine more power and fuel economy while creating much less pollution. (PESWiki)

- Top 100: Solar > Concentrated > Cool Earth Solar >
Interview: Cool Earth Solar's Answer to Global Energy Crisis - In 1-hour interview, CEO, Rob Lamkin, discusses how his company's inflatable solar concentrator technology slashes materials costs, making solar farms able to compete with natural gas plants, and eventually even coal plants. Commercial deployment expected next year; could satisfy a large portion of Gore's 10-years-to-100%-renewable initiative. (FreeEnergyNow; Aug. 9, 2008)

- Plasma / Electromagnetic >
Phemax Technology's Plasmagnetic Alternator - Patent pending device allegedly generates electricity via plasma arc (Microsun) technology, initiated with low voltage, high current, high temperature, thermally conductive, thorium tungsten / graphite electrodes submerged in water. The resulting syngas runs a Phemax generator, which is said to have 5x amplification capability. (PESWiki; Aug. 7, 2008)

Interview: Super-Efficient 'Gun' Engine - Canadian inventor, Kazimierz Holubowicz, has come up with an environmentally friendly and transmission-free engine based on the same mechanics as how a bullet is shot from a gun. More recent test results showed a 14% increase in torque while using 10% as much fuel. (FreeEnergyNow; Aug. 4, 2008)

- Solar > Concentrated
Lateral Aperture Solar Design - "Think of a sheet of glass set out to capture the sunlight; instead of letting the light pass through or reflecting it off somewhere, it captures the light inside the thickness of the pane. It then redirects it toward an edge, or a number of them, where it then emerges at a concentration ratio." (PESWiki; July 23, 2008)

- Top 100: Wind > Vertical Axis >
Interview with TMA Global Wind Energy Systems - Vertical axis wind turbine design creates pull on the back side contributing to 40%+ wind conversion efficiencies. Doesn't kill birds, runs more quietly, doesn't need to be installed as high, blends better with landscape, cost-competitive, going commercial. (FreeEnergyNow; July 28, 2008)
