Solar’s an interesting fight. It feels like two companies are pulling away from the pack, U.S.-based First Solar and China-based Suntech Power. So clearly the U.S. wants the U.S. to win (cough…Solyndra…cough) and China wants the same for their companies. I am probably a biased Westerner, but China is playing hardball. It’s not the loans. China is also subsidizing through land grants, tax breaks, and who knows what else. It’s hard to track and even harder to see what the impact on First Solar will be.

This is one of those ideas that seem so obvious once you hear them. A town in England, Huddersfield, is using power generated from the trash it collects to power its electric garbage collection trucks. Brilliant! How can this not be the future of trash collection. Next we need sun tanning salons to run on their own sunning lamps.
