STUFF

Special commission urges "urgent" solution to US nuke waste. We need a site. Now. New agency proposed to resolve the problem.

Nellis AFB 14MW solar farm can't be used when grid is down per agreement with local utility. What the hell is that department.

EIA chief: deepwater GOM, not shale, to drive long-term US crude production. Hundreds of scientists ask Obama to halt Arctic drilling.

OH power company to shutter 6 coal plants because of EPA rules. I say good. Convert them to NG, what the hay.

To thrive, FSLR needs to sell 65GW next 10 years. GE going to give them a run with the same tech.

Glen Canyon - newly "unstealthed" Calif startup - landed 1.5M unit order from China for their $25 smart meters. Using Cirrus Logic chips. Half the world's meter market is in China, a quarter in India.

USDA gave Zeachem a conditional commit to $232M loan guarantee for 25M gal/y $390M Oregon biorefinery. Competitive at $50 oil. Cellulosic ethanol. Poplar, wheat straw, corn stover feedstock.

1st biofuel flight in 777 to Persian Gulf from factory.

EPA ready to nix palm oil as advanced biofuel feedstock. Good news happens.

Hearty weekend, pards. Hearty.
