PES Network free energy news and directory service passing the hat - If you appreciate the news, directory, and networking service we provide, perhaps you could chip in and help us pull through a skinny time. (PESN; Sept. 6, 2009) [Thanks to all those who have contributed in the past month. Still haven't reached our goal.]

Europe Testing "Road Trains" to Cut Fuel Use - In the Safe Road Trains for the Environment (SARTRE) system up to 8 vehicles (cars, busses, trucks) would travel as one "train," linked by wireless sensors, cutting fuel use by 20%. The lead "train", driven by a professional, would enable the trailing vehicles' drivers to become "passengers", able to take their hands off the wheel -- and they could come and go as they please .

Forms & guides for 20-foot wide parabolic earth bag vault - More correspondence with Owen Geiger, professional earth bag builder about cautions and mechanics of building. Also, some earlier correspondence in which I mull over the impossibility of building an earth bag home for my family of 6 in just one month in the Spring, then realize that I'll have to plan on purchasing the materials, then build.

MYT engine to be demonstrated to Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) - Inventor Raphial Morgado has been invited as a guest speaker a the Oregon chapter of SAE to discuss and demonstrate his Massive Yet Tiny (MYT) engine next March. Also working on building 5.5-inch versions to demonstrate this 40x power-to-weight ratio engine. (PESN; Nov. 19, 2009) (Comments)

Hydrogen power or just hot air? - Bill Jenner, a lifetime auto mechanic from Australia, claims to have reduced his fuel consumption by up to 75% by an on-board electrolysis unit that he put together from plans downloaded online. The unit ducts hydroxy gas (hydrogen-oxygen mixture) into the air intake of his vehicle catalyzing a more efficient burn of the fuel. (EchoNews au; Nov. 19, 2009)

China quietly introduces new financial system - "China has stealthily introduced a new financial system based on the renminbi which is well on its way to becoming fully convertible, according to a high-level Chinese source. In addition, China is purchasing 10,000 tons of gold to back up a new fund designed to develop and market heretofore forbidden and suppressed technologies." (Benjamin Fulford; Nov. 17, 2009)

New energy ideas are under study - Recently, The Orion Project, submitted an important energy research and development proposal to President Barack Obama and the U.S. Congress. The document provides background information about energy-producing technologies that are outside the awareness and attention of most mainstream scientists and engineers.

U.S. Army’s New Research Center Puts Fossil Fuels on Notice - The U.S. Army is building a 30,000 ft2 Ground System Power and Energy Laboratory (GSPEL) deep in the heart of the U.S. auto industry. The high tech GSPEL complex features eight separate laboratories dedicated to increasing energy efficiency, using more renewable resources, focusing on ready access to energy and power, and reducing environmental impacts.

Waste-to-Energy Technology Reaches Major Milestone: SDTC Celebrates Completion of Plasco Project - Sustainable Development Technology Canada adn Plasco Energy Group's Plasma Gasification for Municipal Solid Waste project has reached completion. Their Plasma Gasification process converts 75 tonnes a day of municipal solid waste into synthetic gas, inert solid material and heat. The gas is utilized in a power plant to produce electricity for sale into the electricity grid. (Marketwire; Oct. 22, 2009)

2-floor Paramecium House Plans with Split Saircase - The Hot Dot House plan was a flop, partially because of heating issues, so the pendulum swung and we began considering a more traditional -- squarish earthbag -- floor plan; but then want back to the paramecium shap but with two floors and a nice split staircase, reading loft, some bottle walls. Normal doesn't work for us. (Allan's Sustainable Home; Nov. 10, 2009)

Magnetic Amplifiers -- another lost technology - Reprint of a 2000 article by George Trinkaus about a technology developed by the U.S. Navy in 1951. "Mag amps not only can regulate but can magnify, oscillate, modulate, switch, pulse-generate, invert, convert, multivibrate, phase shift, and multiply.... This copyrighted work is available in a printed booklet from High Voltage Press which also sells a companion booklet called "Magnetic Amplifiers Bibliography."

This is Big: U.S. Could Double Hydropower Capacity with Minimal Impact - U.S. Energy Sec. says that hydropower capacity in the U.S. could "double with minimal impact to the environment", mostly just by installing more efficient turbines at existing hydroelectric projects or at dams without power components, increasing the use of pumped-storage projects, and encouraging the use of run-of-the-river turbines.

News by Topic
Recently, we have begun posting news bullets to the various main directory pages of relevance, rather than just to the sup-pages where they are most applicable. For example, a story about photovoltaics will go both on the photovoltaics page as well as the solar news page. Here are a few of the pages that are being updated most frequently.
