First Solar Passes $1 Per Watt Industry MilestoneCompany Cuts Manufacturing Cost to 98 Cents Per Watt in Fourth Quarter

First Solar Passes $1 Per Watt Industry MilestoneCompany Cuts Manufacturing Cost to 98 Cents Per Watt in Fourth Quarter

TEMPE, Ariz.--Feb 24 2009 -First Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: FSLR ) today announced it reduced its manufacturing cost for solar modules in the fourth quarter to 98 cents per watt, breaking the $1 per watt price barrier.

“This achievement marks a milestone in the solar industry’s evolution toward providing truly sustainable energy solutions,” said Mike Ahearn, First Solar chief executive officer. “First Solar is proud to be leading the way toward clean, affordable solar electricity as a viable alternative to fossil fuels.”

First Solar began full commercial operation of its initial manufacturing line in late 2004. From 2004 through today, manufacturing capacity has grown 2,500 percent to more than 500 megawatts in 2008. First Solar’s annual production capacity will double in 2009 to more than 1 gigawatt, the equivalent of an average-sized nuclear power plant. These escalating volumes have been accompanied by a rapid reduction in manufacturing costs. From 2004 through today, First Solar’s manufacturing costs have declined two-thirds from over $3 per watt to less than $1 per watt. First Solar is confident that further significant cost reductions are possible based on the yet untapped potential of its technology and manufacturing process.

First Solar is not only committed to making solar power affordable but also to making it environmentally sustainable. The Company takes responsibility for its products throughout their life cycle, ensuring that First Solar modules have the smallest carbon footprint of any current photovoltaic (PV) technology. First Solar is proud to have the industry’s first and only comprehensive pre-funded, end-of-life module collection and recycling program, recycling more than 90 percent of each collected module into new products.

Ahearn expressed thanks to governments in Germany and other countries for making today’s milestone possible. “Without forward-looking government programs supporting solar electricity, we would not have been able to invest in the capacity expansion which gives us the scale to bring costs down,” he said. “First Solar’s ongoing focus on cost reduction enables continued growth even as subsidies decline. In the meantime, those initial investments are paying off in a cleaner environment and in the creation of thousands of jobs with a clear future.”

“This represents a major milestone for the solar industry,” said Ken Zweibel, an industry veteran currently serving as Director of the Institute for the Analysis of Solar Energy at The George Washington University and former Program Leader for the Thin Film Partnership Program at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo. “In order to address climate change in a meaningful way, we need energy technologies that are affordable, scalable and have a low environmental impact on a life-cycle basis. With this announcement, First Solar continues to demonstrate the ability of thin film PV technology to provide an alternative to traditional fossil fuels and for solar power to provide a meaningful contribution in addressing climate change."

Ontario's bold new plan for a green economy

Ontario's bold new plan for a green economy

Government To Boost Renewable Energy, Economic Growth And Create A Culture of Conservation

Feb 23 2009

Ontario is proposing sweeping new legislation to attract new investment,create new green economy jobs and better protect the climate. The proposed bill, the Green Energy Act (GEA), if passed, would help thegovernment ensure Ontario's green economic future by:

- building a stronger, greener economy with new investment, creating well-paying green jobs and more economic growth for Ontario - a projected 50,000 jobs in the first three years - better protecting our environment, combating climate change and creating a healthier future for generations to come.

The proposed GEA is a bold series of coordinated actions with two equallyimportant thrusts:
- making it easier to bring renewable energy projects to life, and - fostering a culture of conservation by assisting homeowners, government, schools and industrial employers to transition to lower energy use.

The proposed GEA, and the expected regulatory changes and policies thatwould flow from it, include a range of measures.

Clean Energy Infrastructure & Reducing Dependence on Oil Key to Economic Growth and Recovery Leaders Conclude

Clean Energy Infrastructure & Reducing Dependence on Oil Key to Economic Growth and Recovery Leaders Conclude

"National Clean Energy Project: Building the New Economy" Forum Proposes Principles for Energy Policy in the U.S.; Builds Momentum towards Clean Energy Legislation

WASHINGTON--Feb 23 2009 --Major leaders from government, business, labor and non-governmental organizations agreed today on four key recommendations to reform U.S. energy policy. These principles would boost new renewable energy production, transmission and distribution and reduce the nation's dependence on foreign oil. These leaders included Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar, energy executive T. Boone Pickens, Center for American Progress Action Fund President John Podesta, and Vice President Al Gore among others.The key principles include:
]
A national clean energy infrastructure is essential to drive economic recovery, create good jobs, increase national security, reduce oil use, and protect the global environment. A regional planning process can speed the siting and construction of new transmission lines that can deliver solar, wind, and geothermal electricity to meet growing demand for energy to power growth. “Smart grid” technology and distributed generation of renewable energy can increase the transmission efficiency, and provide new information and tools to consumers to reduce their energy use, save money on energy bills, and cut global warming pollution. Investments in new infrastructure to support clean domestic alternative transportation fuels, such as natural gas and advanced bio fuels, will cut America’s dependence on oil and reduce global warming pollution. Forum participants offered the following comments after the discussion in the National Clean Energy Project:

“Developing clean renewable energy is a matter of economic and national security, making the discussion we had today important for Nevada and the nation,” said Reid, who served as the event’s Honorary Chair. “Many of the stakeholders who play a key role in this movement were in the room today including elected officials, cabinet members, and leaders in industry, labor and the environment. I look forward to our continued partnership to change our nation’s energy policy in a way that creates jobs, protects consumers and the environment and provides reliable power that meets our growing needs.”

“President Obama put us on the right path with a recovery package that creates jobs through clean energy investments. The plan has unprecedented resources for efficiency, solar and wind power, clean domestic alternative transportation fuels, and a 21st century electricity grid infrastructure. Mapping the next steps to wire the U.S. for progress is what this day was all about,” said John Podesta, President of the Center for American Progress Action Fund. “Broad support for transmission and other infrastructure policies will enable businesses and government to make investments that create good jobs, boost economic growth, reduce energy use, and protect the Earth.”

“If we are serious about reducing our foreign oil dependency, we have to use clean domestic alternative transportation fuels such as natural gas and invest to transform power generation, distribution and transmission of renewable energy and focus on efficiency. These have to be the cornerstones of a new national energy policy,” said Mr. Pickens. “The National Clean Energy Project is a historic gathering of a group of leaders from across government, business, labor and the policy community and we are united in a commitment to developing a new national energy policy and to getting this job done. Now is the time to act on the momentum generated today and move forward with energy legislation that will reduce our dependence on foreign oil, create economic growth and make our nation safer.”

“The time has come to rethink and remake our energy future. That means building a new electric transmission system that is capable of bringing the power of renewable energy resources to American consumers, from the solar power of our southwestern deserts to the winds of the high plains to the geothermal resources of the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific northwest,” said Interior Secretary Salazar. “Today's gathering will help us assemble some of the best ideas for bringing our electric grid into the 21st century and for building the clean energy economy that we need.”

“It's clear from today's meeting that there is a growing consensus about the need to transform the way we use and produce energy," Energy Secretary Chu said. "Starting with the investments in the President's Recovery plan, and building on many of the good ideas discussed today, we can create millions of new jobs, free ourselves from the grip of foreign oil, and address the global climate crisis.”


The participants in events during the day included:
President Bill Clinton Vice President Al Gore Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), Honorary Chair Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) Senator Tim Wirth, U.N. Foundation President, Moderator U.S. Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Change Carol Browner T. Boone Pickens, Chairman and Founder, BP Capital Management John Podesta, President and CEO Center for American Progress Action Fund Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee Chair Jeff Bingaman (D-NM) Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Chair Byron Dorgan (D-ND) House Select Committee on Energy Independence & Global Warming Chair Ed Markey (D-MA) Acting Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Chairman Jon Wellinghoff Former Governor George Pataki (R-NY) Lee Scott, Executive Committee Chairman, Board of Directors, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. Mike Morris, Chairman, President and CEO, American Electric Power Michael Thaman, Chairman and CEO, Owens Corning Denise Bode, CEO, American Wind Energy Association Fred Butler, President, National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners Rick Fedrizzi, President and CEO, U.S. Green Building Council Van Jones, Founder and President, Green For All Robert Kennedy, Jr., Chairman, Waterkeeper Alliance and Senior Attorney, NRDC Carl Pope, CEO, Sierra Club Nat Simons, Sea Change Foundation Andy Stern, President, Service Employees International Union John J. Sweeney, President, AFL-CIO Rose McKinney James, Energy Foundation Board The 28 participants were together at the "National Clean Energy Project: Building the New Economy" Forum in Washington, DC today. It included remarks to the panelists from President Bill Clinton, former U.S. Senator and United Nations Foundation President Timothy Wirth, Honorary Chairman of the event, Senator Reid, Vice President Al Gore, as well as by business leader and clean energy advocate T. Boone Pickens and Center for American Progress Action Fund President John Podesta.
These speakers touched on key themes of the forum, including overcoming clean energy infrastructure challenges, and reducing America’s dependence on foreign oil. The roundtable discussion among the invited participants, moderated by Mr. Wirth, focused on guiding the transformation of our nation’s energy policies as essential to economic recovery and job creation.


There was a focus on:
modernizing the electricity grid to increase capacity for wind and solar power; integrating energy efficiency, distributed renewable generation, and “smart grid” technology into operation and regulation of our electricity system; and, reducing our nation’s dependence on foreign oil through natural gas, advanced bio fuels, plug-in hybrid cars and advanced batteries.


About the National Clean Energy Project
Today’s event was convened by the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was Honorary Chair. The forum grew out of the National Clean Energy Summit convened in 2008 by Sen. Reid, the Center for American Progress Action Fund, and the University Nevada Las Vegas. Today’s forum focused on modernizing and expanding the electricity grid, integrating energy efficiency and distributed generation into operation and regulation, rapidly increasing transmission capacity for renewable energy and reducing our nation’s dependence on foreign oil by using clean domestic alternative transportation fuels.

New Engine Technology

New Engine Technology

The CIBC Engine:

The Cavitation-Ignition Bubble Combustion (CIBC) engine is a new discovery in green energy technology that could replace fossil fuel altogether.

For the past twenty-five years, a small research company, Micro-Combustion, Inc. has dedicated themselves to the development of a new engine prototype based on the physics of cavitation-ignition bubble combustion. The basic idea behind this new engine is simple but revolutionary: it utilizes a small air bubble in a fluid (the fuel) as the combustion chamber to compress, ignite, and capture the energy derived from the heat release of the combustion of the fuel-air contents of the bubble. The fuel also happens to be the working fluid, which drives the turbine blades to extract power. The CIBC engine can run on just about any liquid hydrocarbon fuel, including plant, mineral, or recycled oils.

Although the CIBC engine can operate on petroleum based fuels, it does not require it. Its ability to operate on alternative liquid fuels holds the potential, if fully realized, to transform the transportation sector by reducing or eliminating our nation’s reliance on domestic or imported petroleum-based fuels. The physics and chemistry of the CIBC engine has been tested by NASA scientists who, in a report dated August 2005, found that the CIBC concept is indeed real and potentially capable of producing power.

If used to power an automobile, the engine would be about the size of a basketball, have fewer than a dozen moving parts, and would achieve remarkable fuel efficiency upwards of the equivalent of 100 miles per gallon.

Because the ignition is encapsulated inside tiny bubbles, which then serve to absorb and trap gaseous emissions that are soluble in the liquid fuel (such as carbon dioxide) there are near-zero emissions.

At the present stage of development, it is reasonable to assume that a new thermodynamic process (or engine cycle) similar to the Diesel engine, but with greater thermodynamic efficiency (due to the high peak bubble temperature) has been demonstrated. As Diesel engines already have a higher thermodynamic efficiency than gasoline internal combustion engines (Otto cycle), the potential is that the CIBC engine would now be the highest thermodynamic efficiency automotive engine to date.

Solar Company Spire Initiates “Come to America” Program

Spire Initiates “Come to America” Program
Spire Introduces Mark Case, Vice President of Photovoltaic Factory Management, to Lead this Initiative.

BEDFORD, Mass.---Spire Corporation (Nasdaq: SPIR), a global solar company providing turnkey solar factories to manufacture photovoltaic (PV) modules worldwide, today announced that it has initiated its “Come to America” program to assist foreign manufacturers of PV modules to establish manufacturing operations in the United States (U.S.). The U.S. is projected to be the most rapid growing PV market in the world, doubling each year over the next few years with projections of over five gigawatts (GW) through 2011 (Barclays Capital Solar Energy February 2009). To take full advantage of the newly signed economic stimulus bill, foreign manufacturers would need to produce their modules in the U.S.

Spire has been a major supplier of turnkey factories worldwide and has participated in all aspects of the U.S. market, including establishment of manufacturing lines, producing systems, and has conducted U.S. Department of Energy funded research and development programs and has advised the U.S. Congress on solar policy directions for more than 30 years. This experience coupled with ongoing involvement in all sectors of PV in the U.S. makes Spire ideally suited for “bringing companies to America”.

Assembling modules from solar cells in distributed module assembly lines is a cost effective approach to market entry. Shipping costs are reduced and solar cells usually represent the intellectual property part of the module. Manufacturing modules near the market also stimulates local market growth, results in local tax incentives and incentives for job creation. Spire offers turnkey lines for both module and cell production. Spire also provides factory siting, factory management, module certification, cell and other material supply and guidance through the General Services Administration and other U.S. requirements.

Leading this initiative is Mark R. Case who has recently been added to Spire’s senior staff as Vice President of Photovoltaic Factory Management. Mr. Case joined Spire from Flextronics where he was Vice President of the Energy Division within Flextronics’ FLEXIndustrial business segment. His work concentrated on the PV industries.

Mr. Case’s responsibilities at Spire will focus on the “Come to America” program for international suppliers. He will provide factory management services and coordinate after factory support including cell and wafer supply, equipment service and equipment upgrades. Additional responsibilities include deal structures and management contracts.

Roger Little, CEO and Chairman of Spire Corporation, said, “We have waited a long time for the U.S. PV market to develop. Now that it’s ready to take off we’re excited about where we are today and what we can offer new entrants. It has taken us 30 years to have put ourselves in the position of being able to provide the breadth of support that we now have from plant siting to plant management to module manufacturing and qualification to navigation through U.S. laws and requirements.”

This has been a very exciting time for our team, and we look forward to sharing this opportunity with the investing community at the upcoming GCFF conference. Given the many challenges faced by global financial markets today, reputable investor forums such as GCFF are vital in building investor confidence and in providing strategic insight on how to thrive during such turbulent economic times."

"Mantra has a proven chemical process which is a part of the solution to one of the large environmental problems plaguing our planet: carbon dioxide," commented John Russell, head of Mantra's Scientific Advisory Board. "We understand that in order for sustainability to be attractive to companies, it needs to be commercially useful. ERC is. It really could be a breakthrough in the way our planet handles its carbon dioxide pollution."

Mantra was also featured in a number of different publications including IndustryWeek.com, CleanTechBrief.com and the industry magazine Metal Producing and Processing. All of Mantra's recent media coverage can be found on Mantra's website at www.mantraenergy.com

About the Global Chinese Financial Forum (GCFF)

GCFF is the largest series of bilingual (Chinese/ English) financial functions in North America. GCFF fosters the development of North American and Asian financial industry by creating opportunities for companies, financial institutions, and investors all under one roof to physically meet and to truly benefit from each other. Since 2000, GCFF has grown from a one-day seminar to a series with two-day conferences, seminars, and road shows.

GCFF will be hosting the 10th annual Vancouver Conference 2009 on Sunday, February 22, 2009 at the Hilton (Metrotown) Hotel from 9:30 am - 4:30 pm. To learn more about the Forum, or to pre-register for the event, visit the GCFF website: http://gcff.chineseworldnet.com/front.asp.

About ERC:

The ERC process, defined as the Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide, combines captured carbon dioxide with water to produce high value materials, such as formic acid and formate salts, which are conventionally obtained from the thermochemical processing of Fossil Fuels. However, ERC has an advantage over the established thermochemical methods for converting carbon dioxide to liquid fuels.

While thermochemical reactions must be driven at relatively high temperatures that are normally obtained by burning fossil fuels, ERC operates at near ambient conditions and is driven by electric energy that can be taken from an electric power grid supplied by hydro, wind, solar or nuclear energy.

About Mantra:

Mantra, through its group of sustainable energy, carbon reduction and consumer product subsidiaries, is active in the green technology marketplace with an innovative, multi-faceted approach focused on profitability through sustainability. By aggressively seeking out new technologies and innovating solutions for a cleaner earth for everyone, Mantra intends to provide a highly profitable and environmentally responsible investment for its shareholders.

Mantra's recent developments have resulted in many governments and leading industrial companies taking an interest in ERC. Mantra is currently in discussions regarding various grants and other support initiatives offered by international governments, as well as possible pilot projects with large industrial companies.

Mantra is a public company quoted on the OTC BB under the symbol MVTG and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol 5MV.

T. Boone Pickens Statement on Signing of Economic Stimulus Plan

T. Boone Pickens Statement on Signing of Economic Stimulus Plan

Stimulus Provides A Start for Energy Investment But More Needs to Be Done to Reduce Nation’s Dependence on Foreign Oil and to Develop Serious Energy Policy

Dallas, TX, February 17, 2009 – T. Boone Pickens offered the following comment today on the progress made on energy policy and investment through President Obama’s signing of the economic stimulus legislation:

“The stimulus has made some important progress through investments in renewable energy, the funding to rebuild our nation’s transmission grid and on conservation. These are certainly an important part of the Pickens Plan. It will create jobs and will move the country in the right direction on our energy policy. But as I have said previously, this is only a start.

“We must continue to focus on reducing our dependence on foreign oil and the only way to do that is using our abundant supply of domestic fuels in transportation. We must tap into the potential of natural gas and until we do that, then we are not close to solving our problem. I will continue my efforts and am focusing the more than 1.4 million members of the Pickens Army to deliver the message on foreign oil to the leadership in Washington, particularly as it moves forward with energy legislation in the coming months.”

About the Pickens Plan

Unveiled on July 8, 2008 by T. Boone Pickens, the Pickens Plan is a detailed solution for ending the United States’ growing dependence on foreign oil. Earlier this year, when oil prices reached $140/barrel, America was spending about $700 billion for foreign oil, equaling the greatest transfer of wealth in human history. That figure has decreased some while oil prices have retreated, but the U.S. is still dependent on foreign nations for nearly 70 percent of its oil, representing a continuing national economic and national security threat. The plan calls for investing in power generation from domestic renewable resources such as wind and using our abundant supplies of natural gas as a transportation fuel, replacing more than one-third of our imported oil.
More than 1,400,000 people have joined the Pickens Army through the website www.pickensplan.com , which has had over 14,000,000 hits. For more information on the Pickens Plan please visit our website.

WaterFurnace Renewable Energy Is Poised to Contribute to Economic Recovery and Long-Term Energy Goals

WaterFurnace Renewable Energy Is Poised to Contribute to Economic Recovery and Long-Term Energy Goals
Company Proposes Plan to Create Jobs and Save Energy


FORT WAYNE, IN--Feb 16, 2009 -- As President Barack Obama prepares to sign the federal Economic Stimulus Package, WaterFurnace Renewable Energy, Inc. (Toronto:WFI.TO) is poised to contribute to the nation's economic recovery with a plan that will create jobs and save energy.

The stimulus package is intended to create and save 3.6 million jobs and jumpstart the economy with economic recovery tax cuts and targeted investments. In addition to putting money back in the pockets of consumers and businesses, the package also includes provisions that will help achieve long-term goals, such as improving energy efficiency in both the public and private sectors.

Among those provisions, the plan calls for a disbursement of $6.9 billion to state and local governments for energy efficiency upgrades and the reduction of carbon emissions. "This could amount to as much as $100 million in the state of Indiana," said Bruce Ritchey, CEO of Indiana-based WaterFurnace, a leading manufacturer of residential, commercial, industrial and institutional geothermal and water source heat pumps.


"By investing a portion of this $100 million in rebates or low interest loans to homeowners who replace their old fossil fuel or straight electric furnaces with geothermal heat pumps, the country would definitely make progress toward the goals of the stimulus package," Ritchey said. "Indiana and other states in the country that have invested in similar programs were able to create hundreds of 'green collar jobs' while significantly increasing energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions."

According to Ritchey, a $2,000 rebate on the purchase of a geothermal heat pump -- or the availability of low interest loans -- could generate 200 heat pump sales every month in Indiana, or 2,400 unit sales at the end of the first year. "At the same time, we can create one new job for every 18 heat pump installations. By the end of the first year that means we will have created, potentially, 133 new green collar jobs (2,400 units divided by 18 installations per job). At $2,000 per unit, the total cost of a job creation/energy efficiency rebate program in the state of Indiana would be $4.8 million over the course of a year."
Every geothermal heat pump requires 24 hours of manufacturing labor and 32 hours of installation labor, according to Ritchey. Small businesses involved in the installation include heating and air conditioning contractors, electricians, plumbers, excavators and drilling machine operators. Ritchey says these businesses have the capacity and technical skills to begin installing green geothermal technology in more homes immediately.
In addition to creating jobs, the rebate program and the ensuing installation of geothermal heat pumps would cut an average four metric tons of carbon emissions per year per unit, due to the high energy efficiency of geothermal heat pump technology. "If you multiply those reductions by the average unit life of 24.4 years, that means 97.6 metric tons of emissions could be eliminated over the lifetime of each unit, and 234,240 tons over the lifetime of the 2,400 units sold through the rebate program," said Ritchey.
Looking beyond Indiana to a national rebate program, Ritchey added, "Every state should take at least five percent of the funding available through the energy efficiency portion of the stimulus package and invest it in a geothermal incentive. I can't think of a faster, more cost effective, greener way to put people back to work, save fossil fuel, reduce carbon emissions and save homeowners thousands of dollars per year for the next 24 years. It's the stimulus that keeps on stimulating."
The backdrop for Ritchey's position on use of the stimulus package funding is a U.S. heating and air conditioning industry that has been hit hard by the recession. "The collapse of the residential new construction market and the lack of consumer financing have slammed the industry over the past two years," he said. "Heating system sales were down to levels not seen since 1970."
Ritchey noted that all geothermal heat pumps are built by WaterFurnace and a few other manufacturers in the United States at domestic plants in Indiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Minnesota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Texas, Florida and New York. Geothermal systems are operating and saving energy in all 50 states and are being exported around the globe.

Market and Solar Stocks Outlook for 2009

Market and Solar Outlook for 2009
Feb 14, 2009
Renewable and Solar Energy Perspectives with J. Peter Lynch
http://www.renewableenergystocks.com/PL/
Exclusively for InvestorIdeas.com and Renewableenergystocks.com

One of the most disconcerting things facing investors in 2008 was the “crazy” market and the violent swings BOTH ways that seemed to go on throughout the year. With that in mind I decided to do some research on where 2008 stood in annals of stock market history.
A Little History on the broad Stock Market
As most everyone knows 2008 was certainly one of the worst years in history for the stock market in general. In fact, the Dow Jones was down 31.1% for the year, which ranks as the 6th worst year in history. I always find it informative and interesting look at history to give me a broader perspective when such a significant event occurs.

T. Boone Pickens Statement on Passage of U.S. Senate Version of Economic Stimulus Plan

T. Boone Pickens Statement on Passage of U.S. Senate Version of Economic Stimulus Plan

Many Key Elements of Pickens Plan Included in Legislation; Nation Now Needs to Shift Focus to Develop Serious Energy Policy

Dallas, TX, February 10, 2009 – T. Boone Pickens offered the following comment today on the passage of the U.S. Senate version of the economic stimulus plan and the progress made on energy policy and investment:

“The Senate has taken another important step forward with the energy provisions in the stimulus bill that include investments in renewable energy, encourage conservation and provide funding to rebuild our nation’s transmission grid, all of which are critical elements of the Pickens Plan and all of which create jobs. While the House and the Senate will begin efforts to reconcile their legislation and present a bill to President Obama, we need to make sure that we remember that this is only the start of the effort on energy.

“There is much more to do on real energy policy reform. We need to shift our focus to a serious energy bill that addresses the real goal – to reduce our dependence on foreign oil – which will have significant benefits for America by removing one of the greatest threats to our national security and making us more economically secure. The only way to accomplish that goal is to use our abundant supply of domestic fuels in transportation. The Senate and House stimulus legislation still fall short of capitalizing on the potential of natural gas and so I will continue my efforts to focus our government on the benefits of natural gas as Washington further tackles energy policy in the coming months.”

Among the key elements of the U.S. Senate economic stimulus bill that are a part of the Pickens Plan are several important provisions to promote renewable energy including:

A 3-year extension of the Production Tax Credit for wind projects and an option to choose an Investment Tax Credit in lieu of the Production Tax Credit
$8 billion to fund a new renewable loan guarantee program, potentially providing loan guarantees to over $80 billion in new renewable project and transmission project loans
A new investment tax credit for renewable energy manufacturers
An additional year of bonus depreciation for 2009
Targeted provisions to encourage renewable transmission

While the Senate economic stimulus bill makes some progress, there remain some additional actions that should be taken in conference with the House of Representatives on their legislation including:

Include the House passed provision enabling renewable developers to exchange their investment tax credits for grants of equal value from the Department of Energy, but extend the program through 2011
Provide direction to the Department of Energy to improve the loan guarantee program so that it provides an efficient process for applying for and receiving loan guarantees

Unveiled on July 8, 2008 by T. Boone Pickens, the Pickens Plan is a detailed solution for ending the United States’ growing dependence on foreign oil.

AMSC and U.S. Department of Energy Agree to Collaborate on 10 Megawatt-Class Superconductor Wind Turbines

AMSC and U.S. Department of Energy Agree to Collaborate on 10 Megawatt-Class Superconductor Wind Turbines

Project Focuses on Significantly Increasing Wind Turbine Power Capacity to Reduce Cost of Wind-Generated Electricity AMSC Windtec Design Expertise and AMSC’s Superconductor Motor Technology Core to New Designs

WASHINGTON--Feb 10 2009 --American Superconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: AMSC), a leading energy technologies company, today announced that it has entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and its National Wind Technology Center (NWTC) to validate the economics of a full 10 megawatt (MW) class superconductor wind turbine. AMSC is separately developing full 10 MW-class wind turbine component and system designs. A CRADA allows the Federal government and industry partners to optimize their resources, share technical expertise in a protected environment and speed the commercialization of technologies.

Under the 12-month program, AMSC Windtec™, a wholly owned subsidiary of AMSC, will analyze the cost of a full 10 MW-class superconductor wind turbine, which will include a direct drive superconductor generator and all other components, including the blades, hub, power electronics, nacelle, tower and controls. The NWTC will then benchmark and evaluate the wind turbine’s economic impact, both in terms of its initial cost and its overall cost of energy.

“The Department of Energy and its National Renewable Energy Lab recognize that wind power will represent a significant fraction of our power production in the years to come,” said NREL Director Dan Arvizu. “High temperature superconductors hold promise for helping lower the overall cost of wind energy. We are pleased to be teaming with AMSC to move this technology forward.”

Direct drive wind generator systems utilizing high temperature superconductor (HTS) wire instead of copper wire for the generator’s rotor are expected to be much smaller, lighter, more efficient and more reliable than conventional generators and gearboxes. AMSC estimates that its superconductor technology will enable a 10 MW-class generator system that would weigh approximately 120 metric tons, compared with approximately 300 metric tons for conventional direct drive generators with this power rating. In addition, direct drive generators eliminate the need for massive gearboxes, the component with the highest maintenance costs in conventional wind turbines. This will open up the opportunity for the development of wind farms in more areas on land and offshore.

The superconductor generators that are to be utilized for 10 MW-class superconductor wind turbines are based on proven technology AMSC has developed for superconductor ship propulsion motors and generators under contracts with the U.S. Navy. AMSC recently announced that a 36.5 MW superconductor ship propulsion motor it designed and manufactured for the Navy was successfully operated at full power by the Navy and is ready for deployment.

Concurrent with the CRADA, AMSC and TECO-Westinghouse Motor Company (TWMC) have been working on a project since October 2007 to develop HTS and related technologies for 10 megawatt-class direct drive wind generators under an award from the National Institute of Science and Technology’s Advanced Technology Program (ATP). The CRADA and ATP programs are intended to serve as a prelude to follow-on programs aimed at building and testing a full-scale prototype superconductor wind turbine, prior to commercialization.

Senior Vice President and AMSC Superconductors General Manager Dan McGahn said, “It is important for our economy to embrace new clean technologies that will increase our energy independence and strengthen our electricity infrastructure. Superconductors are today proving their tremendous power density and efficiency advantages to electric utilities and large power users. This program brings those same benefits to power generation and the rapidly growing wind power market.”

Wind turbine power ratings have been increasing steadily while the price per megawatt has declined, enabling wind power to achieve economic parity with conventional generation sources in prime wind locations. Due to the limitations of conventional technologies, however, the largest wind turbine ratings top out at approximately 6 MW due in part to practical limitations on the physical size and weight of the generators that must be transported over roads and supported on towers hundreds of feet in the air.

“HTS is one of the ‘disruptive technologies’ needed to break through wind power’s capacity barrier and significantly reduce its cost of energy,” McGahn said. “We have formed strong ties with wind turbine manufacturers around the world, including TECO in Taiwan, Sinovel Wind in China and Hyundai Heavy Industries in Korea.

Company News:
NEW YORK, NY Feb 2, 2009 -- Yoo Inc. (OTC BB:YOOO.OB ) , the parent company of IX Energy, Inc., announced today that it has changed its name to IX Energy Holdings, Inc. ("IX Energy") and that the Company's common stock is trading on the over-the-counter bulletin board under the new ticker symbol (OTC BB:IXEH)

IX Energy Holdings, Inc. is a renewable energy solutions company engaged in the design, marketing and development of solar power and other renewable energy solutions targeting federal and civilian agencies. The Company's emphasis in the federal sector helps government agencies comply with mandates for implementation of technologies that support renewable energy.

Under Executive Order 13423, renewable electricity consumption by the federal government cannot be less than 3% from fiscal year 2007 through fiscal year 2009, 5% from fiscal year 2010 to fiscal year 2012 and 7.5% thereafter, and at least half of the renewable energy must come from new sources (in service after January 1, 1999). In 2007, total electricity consumption from government agencies was 193.8 trillion BTU, or 56.79 million MWh.

"The federal government's mandate for renewable energy is enormous, and we think we have established key strategic relationships that will enable us to successfully service this market, which will call for distributed generation systems such as solar electric, solar lighting, geothermal, and other generation systems including fuel cell, cogeneration and highly efficient alternatives," commented Steve Hoffman, CEO of IX Energy.

Through the nine months ended September 30, 2008, IX Energy recorded revenue of approximately $6.5 million. The majority of revenue for 2008 was derived from the federal agency sector.

Hoffman added that, "We work closely with our customers to ensure that they use less energy, pay less for energy, and secure reliable, high-quality power for their critical operations. Federal agencies are seeking ways to save energy and use renewable resources and we are committed to providing solar, and a platform of related renewable energy solutions to enable them to meet these goals. We will continue to be opportunistic in other key markets as well including commercial and select utility scale projects."

Recent Operational Highlights



-- Executed 5-year agreement to manufacture solar modules marketed to
U.S. government customers. The first 24MW fabrication facility came online
January this year and is expected to commence production in February. IX
Energy will begin selling its initial line of completed products from the
first facility to U.S. government customers in the first quarter, 2009.
