That’s great news if you are in the runway business but not so […]
No, Climate Savers isn’t a new brand of computer manufacturer. Nor is it a hip new computer store.
No, Climate Savers is a coming together of computer manufacturers to reduce the power consumption of computers by 50% by 2010.
There are a lot of big brand manufacturers there (although conspicuously absent are Sony and Apple).
Climate Savers has […]
The world’s first turbine to generate commercial amounts of electricity from tidal energy is being installed in Strangford Lough today.
The SeaGen turbine which can generate up to 1.2MW (enough to power approx 1,000 homes) was developed by Marine Current Turbines and works much like submerged windmills, but driven by flowing water rather than air. These […]
