Last month, Sharp and the Italian utility ENEL agreed to build a solar-power plant in Italy, allowing ENEL to sell large volumes of sun-generated energy.
Thus, using a Steve Jobs phrase, without some sort of support, even an insanely great new energy technology cannot be sold if it costs even a small amount more then fossil fuel generated energy.
Stylishly outfitted in a red dress and high heels she could easily have been taken for another young woman with an idea regarding customized haute couture, but hardly like a technology entrepreneur working to develop a potentially groundbreaking invention in wind-generated energy.
Chesapeake continued to spend considerably more than it generated in energy sales.
He said fitting the solar panels would mean the council was paid for the energy generated and would also be paid for unused energy exported to the grid.
The energy storage system will produce hydrogen using excess power generated from renewable energy, primarily wind power.
For example, MMA Renewable Ventures and its investors enjoy a 30% tax credit, have the benefit of accelerated capital depreciation schedules, and sell solar energy credits generated by the project to NV Energy, which must obtain 20% of its power from renewable sources by 2015.
The energy generated is fed straight into the club's electricity control cabinet where a grid-tie inverter pumps energy back on to the grid.
Albert Einstein would certainly have been very proud of all the positive energy generated during these two days.
FORBES: In-memory Computing and the Wisdom of the Telco Crowd
The costs of buying new equipment mean solar energy is still more expensive than energy generated from fossil fuels.
The energy needed to produce a gallon of corn-based ethanol can exceed the energy generated by the ethanol itself.
Liquid air could also help store surplus energy generated by wind and solar.
Lady Verma said the consortium would no doubt be looking for subsidies on the energy generated by the barrage.
Surplus energy generated by the turbines will be fed into the National Grid.
BBC: Windsor Castle hydro power passes test and ready to start
Also, burning wood releases three times more carbon into the atmosphere than burning natural gas, per unit energy generated, said Booth.
FORBES: Massachusetts Addresses "Biomass Loophole" and Limits Subsidies
They also said the likely energy generated by the turbines would "not outweigh the significant adverse effects on local environmental quality".
How is the power generated by BrightSource Energy transmitted to these users?
As the fins tap the energy generated by the up-and-down motion of ocean waves, they move to propel the robot at speeds of up to 2 knots.
FORBES: Ocean Robot Completes Record-Setting 10,000 Mile Journey
While Republicans are benefiting from the white-hot energy generated by the Tea Party movement, they must broaden their appeal to win back the White House or majorities in Congress.
While lots of carbon dioxide will go back into the earth, even more--4 million tons a year worth--will be generated by the energy-intensive liquefaction process and vented straight to the atmosphere.
It will allow us to more effectively transport renewable energy generated in remote places to large population centers, so that a wind farm in rural South Dakota can power homes in Chicago.
WHITEHOUSE: President Obama Explains the Smart Grid and Economic Recovery | The White House
Chris Huhne, the energy secretary, admitted recently that Britain ranks 25th out of the EU's 27 member countries in the amount of energy generated from renewable sources (only Malta and Luxembourg do worse).
ECONOMIST: Britain can have clean energy or cheap energy, but not both
Mr Thakkar, scrutineer of the Indian water scene, says that although the installed capacity of India's hydro projects increased at a compound rate of 4.4% a year between 1991 and 2005, the amount of energy generated actually fell.
About 500 megawatts of wind power are on the drawing boards, with the Victorian government aiming to have 10 per cent of the state's electricity, or 1000 megawatts, generated by renewable energy sources such as wind farms by 2006.
It will increase the amount of energy generated from offshore wind in the UK by one third to 1, 314MW. Opened in September, the Thanet wind-farm was built by the Swedish Vattenfall energy company, and increases the number of large-scale offshore British turbines to 436, to be compared with 2, 640 based on land.
We also showcased several innovations from the intersection of fashion and technology -- a light-up Twitter dress, a pair of "Social Denim" jeans that let you update your Facebook status on the fly and a brilliant "Rocking Knit" chair that uses kinetic energy generated from the chair's gliding motion to knit a winter hat while you sit.

When excess wind energy is generated, power is often transmitted to these neighboring countries.
FORBES: Denmark: 1,000 Megawatts Of Offshore Wind, And No Signs of Slowing Down
In 2005, Denmark's distributed-energy networks generated nearly half the country's electricity while cutting carbon emissions by nearly half from 1990 levels.
Energy is generated by the body's adjustments to differences in temperature between the skin and the outside air, which can be harvested.
These amount to only about 7% of the energy originally generated, a figure that is offset by the need to keep the cables cold.
