Bloom box

I had written about energy solutions on July 15 2008 - Just reminded of while i was browsing today, i have found this on CBC News - 60 minutes which i like to add here as list of creative ideas:

In the world of energy, the Holy Grail is a power source that's inexpensive and clean, with no emissions. Well over 100 start-ups in Silicon Valley are working on it, and one of them, Bloom Energy, is about to make public its invention: a little power plant-in-a-box they want to put literally in your backyard.

You'll generate your own electricity with the box and it'll be wireless. The idea is to one day replace the big power plants and transmission line grid, the way the laptop moved in on the desktop and cell phones supplanted landlines.

It has a lot of smart people believing and buzzing, even though the company has been unusually secretive - until now.

They have few impressive names as first clients: Google, Fedex, eBay, Walmart,Staples to list some.

Review is good and is a working technology...

Oh and here is the link to CBS for this article: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6228923n
