Cleantech News; President Obama Meets with the Cabinet to Discuss Economy, Iraq, BP Oil Spill and Energy and Climate Legislation
President Obama Meets with the Cabinet to Discuss Economy, Iraq, BP Oil Spill and Energy and Climate Legislation
"It is time for us to move to a clean energy future"
http://www.whitehouse.gov/
(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog ) White House Blog; President Obama held a Cabinet meeting at the White House to discuss a variety of topics with the Cabinet ranging from economic growth, national security and the war in Iraq, the BP Oil Spill, and the need for comprehensive energy and climate legislation.
Following the meeting the President gave brief remarks in the Roosevelt Room. The President began his remarks by mentioning the Cabinet’s discussion of economic growth. Over the past five months we have seen job and economic growth, but the President emphasized that there is still more work to be done to help the “millions of Americans out there who are looking for work, or looking for more hours, or are behind on their payments because they experienced unemployment very recently.”
Vice President Biden also gave a briefing on Iraq:
We also got a full briefing from our national security team as well as Vice President Biden on Iraq. It hasn’t received a lot of attention lately, but we are on pace to meet every target that we set at the beginning of this administration, to have our combat troops out and to transfer security responsibilities to the Iraqis. And we had a discussion about the progress that's been made in terms of government formation there.
We also discussed the importance of the transition from a Defense-weighted U.S. approach to a more State Department-weighted approach, and the need to make sure that we are adequately funding and supporting all the diplomatic measures that are going to be necessary so that we can partner effectively with a new Iraqi government over the long haul.
The Cabinet also discussed the BP Oil Spill and measures that have been taken over the past few weeks to stop the leak, clean up the oil and compensate those whose livelihoods have been disrupted by the oil spill.
We had a discussion about the oil spill in the Gulf and the important measures that are being taken both in capping the well, in making sure that we are dealing with the consequences on the shorelines and estuaries and bays across the Gulf, and also making sure that ordinary Americans who are being devastated economically are compensated properly.
Ken Feinberg has already traveled to the Gulf, and he is meeting with governors and local officials with the $20 billion fund that has been set up. We want to make sure that that money is moving out as quickly as possible, as fairly as possible, and that some of the people who I’ve had a chance to talk to down in the Gulf who are just desperate for relief are getting help as quickly as possible.
Finally the Cabinet discussed the importance of passing comprehensive energy and climate legislation:
And finally, we talked about energy. In the context of the oil spill, as I said last week during my Oval Office address, this has to be a wakeup call to the country that we are prepared and ready to move forward on a new energy strategy that the American people desperately want but for which there’s been insufficient political will. It is time for us to move to a clean energy future. I think the American people understand that it is a jobs creator, that it is a national security enhancer, that it is what is needed environmentally.
And we have the opportunity to build on actions that have already been taken in the House of Representatives. The Senate has an opportunity before the August recess and the elections to stand up and move forward on something that could have enormous, positive consequences for generations to come. And the entire Cabinet here recognizes, with all the other stuff that they’re doing, that if we get energy right, that an awful lot of things can happen as a consequence.
The President will meet with a bi-partisan group of Senators to discuss energy and climate legislation next week. The live chat with Heather Zichal, Deputy Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Change, on energy and climate legislation originally scheduled for this afternoon will be rescheduled for next week as well so she can discuss the outcome of the meeting.

TSX Wind Stocks; Industrial Growth Income Corporation Announces Proposed Qualifying Transaction
WINNIPEG, June 23 TSX Wind Stocks( http://www.investorideas.com/ cleantech stocks blog) Industrial Growth Income Corporation (NEX: IGI.H) ("IGIC"), a capital pool company listed on the NEX board (the "NEX") of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), is pleased to announce that it has signed an arm's length letter of intent (the "Letter of Intent") dated June 17, 2010 with IQwind Ltd. ("IQwind") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of IQwind.
If completed, the proposed transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction") will constitute the qualifying transaction of IGIC pursuant to Policy 2.4 Capital Pool Companies of the Exchange (the "CPC Policy").
IGIC was incorporated on September 22, 2005 and began trading on the Exchange on August 16, 2006 as a capital pool company. IGIC was transferred from the Exchange to the NEX on May 27, 2009 for failure to complete its qualifying transaction within the required time period. Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, provided all necessary approvals are obtained, IGIC will return to listing on the Exchange.
About IQwind:
IQwind is a developer and manufacturer of components for the wind turbine industry. IQwind is a private company incorporated on August 28, 2007 pursuant to the laws of the State of Israel. To date IQwind has been focused on technology development and has not reached the revenue stage.
IQwind was founded with the vision of reducing the cost of energy generated by wind turbines through an efficient and reliable mechanical gear that would increase performance and reduce the cost of wind turbines. IQwind has become an innovator in the wind energy industry focused on leveraging its proprietary variable gear technology, called the IQgear, to reduce the cost of energy generated by existing and newly-built wind turbines.
The IQgear technology is the basis for the IQgearbox, a breakthrough in wind turbine gearbox design. The IQgearbox represents an industry innovation: a variable speed turbine built around a fully-mechanical variable speed drivetrain.
A press release containing additional details regarding the business of IQwind as well as certain financial information regarding IQwind will be released by IGIC as soon as such information is available.
Terms of proposed qualifying transaction:
-----------------------------------------
Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, IGIC will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of IQwind and the Qualifying Transaction will result in IQwind becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of IGIC. IQwind currently has issued and outstanding: (i) 100,000 Ordinary Shares; (ii) 66,667 A-1 Shares; (iii) 161,499 A-2 Shares; (iv) 23,000 options to purchase Ordinary Shares; and (v) 1,520 A-2 warrants (collectively, the "IQwind Securities"). In consideration for the IQwind Securities, IGIC will issue to the securityholders of IQwind 100,000,000 common shares of IGIC ("Common Shares") at a deemed price of $0.20 per Common Share for a total purchase price of $20,000,000. As additional consideration for the IQwind Securities, IGIC has agreed to issue: (i) 1,500,000 options to purchase Common Shares at a price of $0.20 per Common Share to individuals who will be directors, officers, employees or consultants of the issuer resulting from completion of the Qualifying Transaction, which options shall be exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance; and (ii) 114,000 warrants to purchase Common Shares at a price of $0.20 per Common Share, which warrants shall be exercisable for a period of two years from the date of issuance.
It is a condition of the Qualifying Transaction that IQwind must complete a brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of a minimum of 35,000,000 ordinary shares of IQwind at a minimum price of $0.20 per share for minimum gross proceeds of $7,000,000. These shares will be exchanged for Common Shares on a one for one basis pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction. Versant Partners Inc. will lead a syndicate of agents (together, the "Agents") for the Private Placement. The Agents will be paid 6.5% of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement, and in addition, the Agents will receive broker warrants in the amount of 6.0% of the number of securities issued in the Private Placement, with a strike price equal to the subscription share price of the Private Placement and exercisable for a period of time to be determined between IQwind and the Agents, subject to Exchange requirements.

The Qualifying Transaction is not a "Non Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" within the meaning of the CPC Policy. Accordingly, the completion of the Qualifying Transaction is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of IGIC in accordance with the CPC Policy.
The Letter of Intent has been approved by the boards of directors of each of IGIC and IQwind.

Cleantech Stocks; Blue Sphere Corporation (OTCBB: BLSP)Announces Term Sheet with Huishan Group for 17 Dairy Farms in China
Cleantech Stocks; Blue Sphere Corporation (OTCBB: BLSP) Announces Term Sheet with Huishan Group for 17 Dairy Farms in China
LONDON--Cleantech News (http://www.investorideas.com/ cleantech stocks blog )--Blue Sphere Corporation (OTCBB: BLSP) (the "Company" or “Blue Sphere”), a company in the Cleantech sector as an Emission Reduction project integrator, is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding term sheet for the construction of an anaerobic fermentation methane production system and a 5.66 MW power generation system at what is thought to be the largest dairy farm in the world in Liaoning Province, China.
“This is a sizable project of great potential for us. We have travelled to China for a number of years building relationships and we are excited to be starting with the Huishan Group on this project.”
.If the project proceeds, Blue Sphere will be the investor and co-developer of the project together with the Huishan Group. Huishan Group is the fifth largest dairy group in China and has 70 dairy cattle ranches, constituting the world’s largest dairy cow base. Huishan has over 60 years experience in cattle farming.
There are three anticipated sources of income if the project proceeds: electricity, sale of organic fertilizer and carbon credits (“CERs”). It is estimated that the potential annual electricity generated could be 37,639 MWh, the potential annual fertilizer production could be 619,770 tons and the potential annual CERs generated could be 180,000.
It is also estimated that the potential annual income from electricity is RMB 19.62 million (net of VAT) (approximately USD $2.88 million at current exchange rates), potential income from fertilizer is RMB 20.45 million (approximately USD $3.0 million) and potential income from CERs is Euro 1.62 million (approximately USD $2 million) calculated at Euro 9/CER.
The companies have applied to the National Development and Reform Committee of China (NDRC) to deem this a national pilot project. If approval is granted subsidies and preferential policies could potentially be allocated to the project.
Conditions to proceed with the project include due diligence and capital raising for the investment required, among other conditions. The total investment for the project is estimated at $30 Million USD.
Shlomi Palas, CEO of Blue Sphere Corporate said: “This is a sizable project of great potential for us. We have travelled to China for a number of years building relationships and we are excited to be starting with the Huishan Group on this project.”
China ratified the Kyoto Protocol in 2005. Projects to reduce greenhouse gas emission in China are eligible for carbon credits through the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). China has already begun projects reducing CO2 emissions from power generation from biomass residue congestion.

Electric Car News; Plug In Carolina Selects AeroVironment (NASDAQ: AVAV ) in to Supply, Install and Support Electric Car "Re-fueling" Stations Throughout South Carolina
Electric Car News; Plug In Carolina Selects AeroVironment (NASDAQ: AVAV ) in to Supply, Install and Support Electric Car "Re-fueling" Stations Throughout South Carolina
CHARLESTON, S.C., Electric Car News of note - (Investorideas.com green newswire ; http://www.renewableenergystocks.com/)
As today's headlines make note that the White House is backing electric cars - the following electric car news is available to investors:
Plug In Carolina announced it has selected AeroVironment, Inc. (AV) /quotes/comstock/15*!avav/quotes/nls/avav (NASDAQ: AVAV ) in Monrovia, Calif., to supply, install and support a network of public electric vehicle (EV) "re-fueling" stations in seven South Carolina cities. The charging network is expected to be operational by December 1, 2010 to support the variety of new EVs entering the roadways.
The project, funded largely by two state grants secured through the South Carolina Energy Office and scheduled to launch June 15, 2010, features a family of charging stations with one, two, or four charge points each. The multi-port configuration is user friendly and lends itself to cost-effective electrical installation. The stations will be located in key re-fueling hubs in each city.
"With seven cities located across the state installing charging stations, this project is helping to establish not only EV ready cities but positioning South Carolina as the first EV ready state in the country," said James Poch, Plug In Carolina executive director. The program will provide publicly accessible EV charging stations at locations such as municipal parking garages, public streets and retailers. Depending on host city requirements, the stations will offer smart communications and payment system options now or in the future.
"AeroVironment submitted the most comprehensive proposal among the eleven that we received, not only reflecting their deep understanding of the technology but also of the practical infrastructure considerations involved in creating a reliable EV charging network," Poch said. "Beyond our hardware needs, it became apparent to us why Nissan would choose AV to handle its nationwide deployment. We are confident that AV's detailed project management capabilities will maximize the network's utility to EV drivers."
"Refueling infrastructure is critical for the mass acceptance of clean electric vehicles," said Mike Bissonette, senior vice president and general manager of AV's Efficient Energy Systems segment. "The move to EVs is demonstrating momentum now, and reliable charging systems for both the home and in the public will be essential for the full-scale, practical adoption of electric cars. We are committed to achieving the successful implementation of this pioneering recharging network for the people of South Carolina."
AeroVironment has been developing, manufacturing and supporting EV charging products for more than a decade. AV offers a broad range of products and services, such as Level 2 charging stations for the home, and public and Level 3 fast charge public stations that can re-fuel a car battery in as little as 10 minutes. AV also offers robust, multi-modal communication, networking and payment systems that support the evolving needs of public charging infrastructure.

Electric Vehicle Car News; Kandi (Nasdaq: KNDI) Reports Another of Its EVs -- Model KD5010XXYEV Has Been Approved for Sale in China
Electric Vehicle Car News; Kandi (Nasdaq: KNDI) Reports Another of Its EVs -- Model KD5010XXYEV Has Been Approved for Sale in China by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology
JINHUA, CHINA, ( Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire, http://www.renewableenergystocks.com/ ) Kandi Technologies, (NASDAQ:KNDI) reported today that following the Chinese governmental approval it received for the sale domestically of its EV vehicle types 5012xxybev and 5020xxybev (batch 203 and batch 212, respectively) published by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) on May 26, 2010, it has received another approval for the sale of its new EV, the KD5010xxyev, in MIIT announcement No. 104 (batch 214).
As previously reported, upon receiving its first EV approval on May 26, 2010, after many years of effort, the Company gained the right to manufacture finished automobiles for Chinese consumers. This was a milestone event which it believes has set the foundation for developing domestic EV sales.
According to the Company, however, its first two models to receive government approval are suitable for limited consumer groups, and the Company does not intend for them to be mass produced. In contrast, in the Company's view, the applicable sphere of the new faster and larger KD5010xxyev is much broader and it has great market potential. Not only does it potentially provide families with low cost, environmentally friendly all electric transportation, but it also is expected to meet the needs of government agencies such as the post office and power supply providers. As such, the Company is optimistic that the new KD5010xxyev will achieve popularity and contribute to the Company's future development.

JINHUA, CHINA, ( Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire, http://www.renewableenergystocks.com/ ) Kandi Technologies, (NASDAQ:KNDI) reported today that following the Chinese governmental approval it received for the sale domestically of its EV vehicle types 5012xxybev and 5020xxybev (batch 203 and batch 212, respectively) published by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) on May 26, 2010, it has received another approval for the sale of its new EV, the KD5010xxyev, in MIIT announcement No. 104 (batch 214).
As previously reported, upon receiving its first EV approval on May 26, 2010, after many years of effort, the Company gained the right to manufacture finished automobiles for Chinese consumers. This was a milestone event which it believes has set the foundation for developing domestic EV sales.
According to the Company, however, its first two models to receive government approval are suitable for limited consumer groups, and the Company does not intend for them to be mass produced. In contrast, in the Company's view, the applicable sphere of the new faster and larger KD5010xxyev is much broader and it has great market potential. Not only does it potentially provide families with low cost, environmentally friendly all electric transportation, but it also is expected to meet the needs of government agencies such as the post office and power supply providers. As such, the Company is optimistic that the new KD5010xxyev will achieve popularity and contribute to the Company's future development.
The Newest Kandi EV, the KD5010xxyev

Water Stocks; Mueller Systems Announces Mi.Hydrant™ for Smart Water AMR/AMI
Water Stocks; Mueller Systems Announces Mi.Hydrant™ for Smart Water AMR/AMI
“Smart” fire hydrant takes center stage in communication grids connecting meter to utility distribution
CLEVELAND, N.C.--(Investorideas.com water stocks newswire, http://www.water-stocks.com/ )--Meet the smartest fire hydrant on the block.
“In today’s complex environment, information flow is a critical part of managing water flow”
.Beginning this year, utilities will have a cost-effective and innovative new option for building AMR/AMI smart grid communications for water management with the Mi.Hydrant™, from Mueller Systems. Mi.Hydrant uses radio transceivers built into fire hydrant caps to communicate water usage-related data that can help utilities improve efficiencies and customer service. It eliminates the need for costly utility leases and enhances the value of existing water infrastructure assets.
Mi.Hydrant is part of the Mi.Net™ Mueller Infrastructure for Utilities advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) system from Mueller Systems. Mueller Systems is part of Mueller Water Products, Inc. (NYSE: MWA), the leading provider of water infrastructure, flow control and piping component system products.
“In today’s complex environment, information flow is a critical part of managing water flow,” said Hassan Ali, General Manager of Mueller Systems. “Mi.Hydrant from Mueller Systems transforms the fire hydrant into an active part of a fixed two-way AMI network.”
Mueller Systems is the first and only provider to recognize that utilities can use existing hydrant infrastructure to be part of a communications grid, linking multiple components of a water infrastructure system; permitting utilities to improve information flows; and the ability to respond to customers’ needs. Mi.Hydrant systems can proactively identify and resolve critical issues around operational efficiency, water conservation, and workforce productivity -– before they affect service.
Mi.Hydrant is an enclosed transceiver that replaces the pumper cap of existing fire hydrants, blending aesthetically and operationally into the existing water infrastructure. It can provide multi-path radio frequency coverage. The device first collects and stores water infrastructure data in its own internal memory. Then, both on demand and at scheduled intervals, it transmits data to the Mi.Net™ Mueller “Infrastructure Network for Utilities” AMI system. Mi.Hydrant thus extends a 900 MHz public broadband, multi-path network for billing, metering and intelligent management of data and water.
Because many municipal codes require fire hydrant placement every 500 feet, utilities can take advantage of the cost savings of using what they already have. The Mi.Hydrant has a range of two-to-three times that distance, creating important communications links that can be built or be part of a communications grid for AMR/AMI from the meter to utility distribution communications, and back again. It provides a complete, end-to-end, two-way “smart water” network for AMR and AMI. Utilities can reduce equipment and labor costs and can eliminate the need to navigate the procedures, politics, and logistics of locating and installing additional structures on which to place communication devices.
The FCC-compliant Mi.Hydrant features open architecture, so while it is ideally deployed in a fire hydrant from Mueller Co., the leading provider of fire hydrants in the world, it can also be used with other brand fire hydrants. This empowers utilities to transition in a scaled, cost-effective manner. Mi.Hydrant can also be used to communicate data to:
•Increase operational efficiency for utilities
•Account for non-revenue water
•Reduce carbon footprint by streamlining labor and water usage
•Improve customer service through timely and accurate data
About Mueller Water Products, Inc.
Mueller Water Products, Inc. is a leading North American manufacturer and marketer of a broad range of water infrastructure, flow control and piping component system products for use in water distribution networks and water treatment facilities.

Cleantech News; BP ( BP: NYSE) to Proceed With Costner Centrifuge Devices to Cleanup Gulf Oil Spill
Cleantech News; BP ( BP: NYSE) to Proceed With Costner Centrifuge Devices to Cleanup Gulf Oil Spill
Ocean Therapy Solutions: Providing Global Solutions for Oil Recovery
New Orleans, LA http://www.ots.org/ cleantech news; ( http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy blog )
British Petroleum ( BP: NYSE) signed a letter of intent with Ocean Therapy Solutions to deploy thirty-two centrifuge machines to assist in the cleanup of oil in the Gulf of Mexico. BP agreed to use the technology after testing machines during the past week.
In testimony before the House of Representatives' Science and Technology committee, Ocean Therapy Solutions partner Kevin Costner told the panel about the challenges he faced bringing the technology into industrial use, including his own personal investment of over $20 million developing the technology. He urged committee members to legislate that oil rigs be required to have mitigation equipment onsite. ”We've legislated life preservers. We legislated fire extinguishers,” Costner said. ”We legislated lifeboats and first aid kits. It seems logical that as long as the oil industry profits from the sea, they have the legal obligation to protect it, except when they find themselves fighting for life and limb.”
Just one of the company's V20 machines can clean up to 210,000 gallons of oily water per day. There are 3 V20 centrifuge machines currently operational in the Gulf. Ten more should become operational within weeks. ”Once production at our factory in Nevada ramps up in July, OTS will be able to produce 10 machines a month,” said Pat Smith, Chief Operating Officer for OTS. ”We are currently ramping up production of new machines with a goal toward deploying the machines along the entire coast,” he said.
”We have chosen teaming partners that are at ground zero and understand the challenges we face, including Edison Chouest Offshore, the largest offshore supply company in the Gulf of Mexico,” said John W. Houghtaling II, Chief Executive Officer of Ocean Therapy Solutions.
The centrifuge machines are sophisticated centrifuge devices that can handle a huge volume of water and separate oil at unprecedented rates. Costner has been funding a team of scientists for the last 15 years to develop a technology which could be used for massive oil spills.
The machines are taken out into the spill area via barges, where they can separate the oil and water. The machines come in different sizes, the largest of which, the V20, can clean water at a rate of 200 gallons per minute. Depending on the oil to water ratio, the machine has the ability to extract 2,000 barrels of oil a day from the Gulf. Once separation has occurred, the oil is stored in tanks. The water is then more than 99% clean of crude.

Cleantech Oil Spill Stocks; EVTN Presents Oil Spill Technology on CNBC
Cleantech Oil Spill Stocks; EVTN Presents Oil Spill Technology on CNBC;
Announces BP Review of Its Voraxial® Oil/Water Separator
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., As released June 9 Cleantech news ( http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy blog ) - Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. (OTCBB: EVTN.OB) was featured on the CNBC Television Show "Power Lunch," June 7, 2010 with Tyler Mathison, Michelle Cabrera and Sue Herera. The show presented EVTN as an example of private sector American entrepreneurial spirit, developing effective solutions to control and clean major oil spills.
The EVTN segment of this show may be seen by clicking on the following link: http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232/?video=1515795009&play=1
During the show it was announced that British Petroleum (BP) notified EVTN that it is reviewing EVTN's Voraxial® Separator technology for possible application to its oil spill response program.
Mr. John A. Di Bella provided examples of the huge volumes of oil-contaminated sea water that could be processed by EVTN's patented Voraxial® Separator, as compared to the average oil recovery reported for the entire deployed Gulf fleet since the beginning of the Deepwater Horizon disaster. A single Voraxial® 4000 Separator, EVTN's medium size model, can separate over 700,000 gallons of oil/water mixture per day. EVTN's largest model, the Voraxial® 8000 Separator can separate over 5 million gallons of oil/water mixture per day. According to Deepwater Horizon's website, as of June 8, 2010 a total of approximately 16 million gallons of oil/water mixture has been collected since the spill began in April.
"The Voraxial® Separator's unique characteristics allow the technology to be used in various industries for many different applications, including oil spill recovery. The Voraxial Separator is ideal for oil spill recovery and we are pursuing a number of opportunities to deploy our units to the Gulf," stated John A. Di Bella, COO of EVTN. "The Voraxial offers one of the best solutions to mitigate this crisis as we can significantly increase the amount of oil/water mixture processed and quickly separate the oil from the captured mixture."
About EVTN: Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. (OTCBB "EVTN") is a Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based CleanTech company that developed and manufactures the Voraxial®, arguably the world's most efficient technology for high volume, bulk separation of fluids such as oil and water.
The Voraxial® Separator is a scalable cost-effective, mechanical separator that separates contaminants at high volumes with less space, energy and weight than conventional equipment. The Voraxial® Separator benefits include: high volume/small footprint, no pressure drop requirement, 2-way or 3 way separation, handles fluctuations in flow rate and oil concentration without any adjustments, high "g" force and less maintenance than conventional equipment. These benefits result in significant acquisition and operating cost savings to the customer.
The separation market encompasses a series of multi-billion dollar segments, spread globally across many industries and applications. Including: oil & gas exploration and production, mining, environmental, clean water, waste treatment, bio-fuel refining, remediation and much more. EVTN was originally founded as a high precision aerospace manufacturer that built the gyro platforms for the Hubble space telescope as well as missile and satellite components. The Voraxial® is now successfully commercialized with world class customers and is the exclusive focus of EVTN's business. EVTN owns significant IP surrounding the Voraxial®.

Cleantech News; Establishing the Cleantech 20 by 2020
Cleantech News; Establishing the Cleantech 20 by 2020: Cleantech Sector Poised to Be a Key Engine of British Columbia's Economic Growth
2010 SDTC Cleantech Growth and Go-To-Market Report - BC Edition released
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy blog ) - The cleantech sector is on the cusp of being the green engine driving British Columbia's economic growth according to the BC Edition of Canada's first ever comprehensive report on the cleantech industry. The 2010 SDTC Cleantech Growth & Go-to-Market Report - BC Edition, authored by the Russell Mitchell Group, is based on input from 168 cleantech companies, including 37 in BC.
"In Vancouver, we are working closely with both the public and private sectors to strengthen the rapidly growing green economy," said Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson. "Reports like the SDTC Cleantech Growth and Go-To-Market Report are instrumental in providing us with a clear map for supporting the clean tech industry. Our city is striving to foster innovation, and we want to ensure that going green isn't just good for the environment, but good for business too."
"As this report shows, BC has an active and growing base of emerging cleantech companies, and is home to nearly a quarter of the Canadian cleantech companies to have achieved commercialization," said Iain Black, Minister of Small Business, Technology and Economic Development. "Our government will continue to strengthen this important sector by creating a business and regulatory climate that encourages B.C. cleantech innovation, investment and exporting."
Key findings from the Report include:
BC has the highest ratio of cleantech companies to GDP in Canada – BC's ratio is 175 per cent.
The BC cleantech industry is dominated by companies specifically focused on power generation. Approximately 24% of BC cleantech companies focus on power generation.
BC's distribution channels for cleantech products and processes are, on average, less developed than the rest of Canada.
"Clean technology is being integrated into virtually every sector of Canada's economy, opening up new avenues of opportunity, creating jobs, and delivering essential environmental benefits to Canadian industries," said Vicky Sharpe, President and CEO of Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC). "This report will be a great tool for the industry and for all levels of government as we strive to bring BC's cleantech sector to its full potential."
"The Canadian cleantech industry has plenty of potential to build globally-competitive companies," said Céline Bak, Partner with the Russell Mitchell Group. "But, being global technology leaders is that much harder when early adopter markets are far from home. A thriving Canadian cleantech industry depends on more than just technological innovation; we will need to build strong domestic markets while at the same time, investing in world-class commercialization for customers at home and abroad."
The Report also outlines a game plan to build "20 by 2020" – twenty Canadian cleantech companies having achieved $100 million in annual revenues by the year 2020. In order to meet this goal, the Report outlines areas that the BC government, the federal government and the private sector need to address. The recommendations address structural issues that stand in the way of the industry's potential success. These issues are:
The industry has commercially-ready products and is ready to grow, however it is chronically undercapitalized, receiving on average only 30% of the capital that US counterparts are able to secure at the same stage.
Domestic markets for clean technology companies in Canada are not dynamic. Green procurement by large procurers including government and large institutions is vital to the industry and is becoming a leading indicator for established industries to measure their own productivity improvement.
Management teams that invest in commercialization are rewarded by growth. Many companies are under performing because of systemic underinvestment in market-facing disciplines.
The Report, which is available in 5 editions (National, BC, Prairies, Ontario and Quebec) was produced by the Russell Mitchell Group in partnership with six provinces and five federal departments. Sponsors include OMERS, OCETA , BC Hydro, BC Innovation Council, Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), C3E, Cenovus, Export Development Canada (EDC), Encana, Lixar, Ogilvy Renault, RBC and the Stonewood Group.

Cleantech Stock News; Pall Corporation (NYSE:PLL) Repurposes Filter Material to Help Oil Clean Up in Gulf Breeze, Florida
Cleantech Stock News; Pall Corporation (NYSE:PLL) Repurposes Filter Material to Help Oil Clean Up in Gulf Breeze, Florida
PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. & PENSACOLA, Fla.--Cleantech news - (Invetorideas.com water stocks newswire, http://www.water-stocks.com/ )--Pall Corporation (NYSE:PLL) is donating leftover polypropylene membrane from its manufacturing operations in Pensacola, Florida, to help protect local beaches from the Gulf oil spill. So far, the company has contributed over 6,000 pounds of the highly absorbent material to aid in the clean up. Pall employees and other local volunteers are bagging the material into netting “socks” to soak up the oil and help contain environmental damage.
Pall's polypropylene membrane is widely used by Life Sciences and Industrial customers to filter water, chemicals, biologicals, fuels and in other applications requiring high dirt-holding capacity. The facility in Pensacola is a Center of Manufacturing and Research Excellence in the company's global supply chain.
Polypropylene is the most common form of absorbent for lifting oil from water. Its fast-wicking fibers can absorb 25 times their weight in petroleum-based liquid, but repel water. Pall trims rolls of polypropylene on the production line to specific customer requirements and, as a result, accumulates leftover material. By repurposing the material for a "second life" to abate the oil contamination Pall's accomplishment is a doubly significant environmental achievement.
“I want to thank Pall for getting involved. We appreciate your staff coming out to pitch in as well. Your donation of oil absorbent material is being put to good use in the fight to keep oil off our beaches. On behalf of our Mayor, City Council and all of our Gulf Breeze area residents, thanks for all your support,” said Edwin Eddy, Gulf Breeze City Manager.
Eric Krasnoff, Pall Chairman and CEO, said, "We are pleased to help any way we can. I'm especially proud of our Pensacola employees for their ingenuity and for rallying to the aid of their community. Their actions epitomize Pall's culture of innovation, citizenship and environmental stewardship. They also demonstrate the positive impact that each of us can have on our communities."

PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. & PENSACOLA, Fla.--Cleantech news - (Invetorideas.com water stocks newswire, http://www.water-stocks.com/ )--Pall Corporation (NYSE:PLL) is donating leftover polypropylene membrane from its manufacturing operations in Pensacola, Florida, to help protect local beaches from the Gulf oil spill. So far, the company has contributed over 6,000 pounds of the highly absorbent material to aid in the clean up. Pall employees and other local volunteers are bagging the material into netting “socks” to soak up the oil and help contain environmental damage.
Pall's polypropylene membrane is widely used by Life Sciences and Industrial customers to filter water, chemicals, biologicals, fuels and in other applications requiring high dirt-holding capacity. The facility in Pensacola is a Center of Manufacturing and Research Excellence in the company's global supply chain.
Polypropylene is the most common form of absorbent for lifting oil from water. Its fast-wicking fibers can absorb 25 times their weight in petroleum-based liquid, but repel water. Pall trims rolls of polypropylene on the production line to specific customer requirements and, as a result, accumulates leftover material. By repurposing the material for a "second life" to abate the oil contamination Pall's accomplishment is a doubly significant environmental achievement.
“I want to thank Pall for getting involved. We appreciate your staff coming out to pitch in as well. Your donation of oil absorbent material is being put to good use in the fight to keep oil off our beaches. On behalf of our Mayor, City Council and all of our Gulf Breeze area residents, thanks for all your support,” said Edwin Eddy, Gulf Breeze City Manager.
Eric Krasnoff, Pall Chairman and CEO, said, "We are pleased to help any way we can. I'm especially proud of our Pensacola employees for their ingenuity and for rallying to the aid of their community. Their actions epitomize Pall's culture of innovation, citizenship and environmental stewardship. They also demonstrate the positive impact that each of us can have on our communities."

Follow up on High Relative Strength Stocks
In my last article to mentioned that investors should look at the stocks that have "held up" the best or have performed the best relative to the market and to their sector peer group. These are the stocks that will usually drop the least in a down market and turn around the fastest in an up market. This is something that investors can research during times when the market is down and create a list of stocks that they can consider buying when the market turns around.
I pointed out two examples of this type of stock from our renewable energy list: Cree Research (CREE) and Veeco Instruments (VECO), both are stock plays on the coming LED lighting transition.
Below is a table comparing these stocks I mentioned that showed significantly better relative strength than the market and the other stocks in their peer group.
Stock Symbols Curr Value %Change YTD
CREE 69.83 23.88
VECO 38.46 16.4
S&P 500 1115.23 0.0117
Dow Jones 10404.77 -0.22
NASDAQ 2305.88 1.62
This is a clear example of stocks that are performing better than the averages and also better than the stocks in their peer group, most of which as down well into the double digits.
This is no guarantee, but historically these are the type of strong stocks that, when the market turns they will turn positive faster than their peer group and possibly even in advance of the market turning positive
