Cleantech Update

International Automated Systems You Tube Notes It is progressing steadily. The first plant is in production in Needles, California. California has a lot of red tape that slows down the process. From what I understand though, the company is advancing on many fronts and hopefully we will see competetively priced solar power sooner than later. JCSSeadog 6 months ago Yes. The system uses zinc batteries to store energy overnight. JCSSeadog 1 year ago IAS has just announced the construction of their first solar energy plant to be constructed in Needles, California. You can read the news story by searching the stock symbol IAUS and reading the news bulliten. Good news for the company, the economy, and for the environment. JCSSeadog 2 years ago The first full scale working prototype should be up and running in the next couple of months. Each tower will produce 50 Kilowatts. Approximately 20 towers can be erected on 1 acre of land. Roughly 1 Megawatt can be produced for every

As a noxious greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide seems an unlikely candidate for generating renewable energy. But a new, U.S. Department of Energy-backed project on the New Mexico-Arizona border soon could put CO2 to use to extract heat from subterranean rock formations to power geothermal electric plants. GreenFire Energy of Utah won a $2 million DOE grant last fall to launch the project, which will tap underground CO2 deposits at St. John’s Field, a 235,000-acre area along the border in New Mexico’s Catron County and Apache County in Arizona. GreenFire plans to build a 3- to-5-megawatt electric plant at Springerville, Ariz., about 18 miles west of New Mexico, to prove the technology. If successful, the company would start constructing 50-megawatt modular units on both sides of the border, said Randy Balik, GreenFire’s vice president of business development. “If we succeed, we’ll be the first ones to produce electric power on a utility scale using CO2,” Balik said. “The technology i
