Powersafe Technology Corp.’s (Other OTC: PSFT.PK) Subsidiary Amplification Technologies has patented a revolutionary new solid-state semiconductor technology solution for low-level signal detection: multichannel Discrete Amplification (DA). The patented DA platform technology, invented by company scientists, is a breakthrough in the design of photon detectors, providing these detectors with unique competitive advantages. Use of DA in semiconductor detectors increases their sensitivity markedly, and enables the creation of new detector systems for various applications including medical diagnostics, security systems,

On Monday, July 13, both Ovonic Battery Company, Inc. and Chevron Technology Ventures LLC offloaded their equal stakes in the joint venture Cobasys L.L.C.  Ovonic is a subsidiary of Michigan-based Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ENER) while Chevron Technology is a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation (CVX).   Cobasys develops and manufactures energy storage systems for hybrid electric vehicles.  The stakes were bought by South Korea-based SB LiMotive Company Ltd. (SBL) – a $520 million joint venture between German car-parts maker, Robert Bosch GmbH and South Korean electronics player Samsung SDI Company Inc.  Through the deal SB LiMotive expanded its product portfolio with nickel–metal hydride batteries.   The deal gets Energy Conversion Devices out of the unprofitable Cobasys JV.  It can now focus on its core solar laminates business, which has been hit hard in recent times by falling demand for solar power on account of lack of project financing. 

With all the movement toward green technology, and the new administration’s active support of it, what’s going to happen to the automobile? It’s hard to imagine the roads of tomorrow still populated with exhaust spewing internal combustion engines, even if they’re 60 mpg hybrids.

Although gas prices are temporarily being held in check by a stagnant economy, it’s apparent that Americans are getting increasingly sick of the gas price roller coaster ride. Add to that the haunting feeling that a percentage of gas money has for years been going to America’s worst enemies, and it’s easy to understand the longing for a better way.

But what’s the best alternative? In spite of all the talk about things like mass transit, high-mileage hybrids, hydrogen power, and biomass fuels, they all have pollution or infrastructure issues that have yet to be resolved to everyone’s satisfaction.

ZBB Energy Corporation is an energy company engaged in researching the manufacture of energy storage systems for utility companies, renewable energy generators, and commercial and industrial customers. ZBB Energy was formed in 1998 in Wisconsin as a holding company for its subsidiaries in the United States and Australia.

The ZBB zinc energy storage systems (ZESS) can be used by a variety of clients. Traditional energy companies need reliable systems to store surplus energy generated during off-peak periods, which is primarily during the summer months for highly populated areas like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. With more companies and private citizens using alternative energy sources like solar panels and wind turbines, there is a growing need for storage devices to keep the power available for customers who are “on” and “off” the grid. Then there are industrial or commercial organizations that need an uninterrupted power supply and power quality protection

For more than 22 years, Satcon (Nasdaq: SATC) has provided utility-scale distributed power solutions, such as solar photovoltaic (PV), stationary fuel cells, wind turbines and energy storage systems for the renewable energy market. The company today announced it will make history by taking part in the world’s largest rooftop solar photovoltaic power project, to be installed on top of the General Motors car manufacturing facility in Figueruelas, Zaragoz Spain.

Designed and built by Clairvoyant Energy, Veolia Environment and the Government of Aragon, the 12-megawatt (MW) system will cover approximately 2 million square feet with a surface area of 183,000 square meters. The project will require the combined knowledge of the world’s leading PV solutions providers.

United Solar Ovonic’s thin film flexible solar laminates and Satcon’s PowerGate Plus 500kW inverters make up integral pieces of the project, which will generate electricity to be sold to Spain’s power utility, Endesa.
