- Energy at the top of new Presidential agenda?
- Back in Presidential Debate #2 Obama indicated it was going to be alternative energy and an overall energy policy. It seems less than definite any such bill could get through the U.S. Senate if it doesn't please lobbyists for the fossil fuel industry. Here's a nifty...

- Green tech company hits the red, and the panic button
- An ethanol-maker in South Dakota goes for Chapter 11. It's VeraSun, hit by a combo of high clorn prices, and tight credit. Even though corn prices are now only about half of their record $8 per bushel from mid-summer, VeraSun is feeling the pinch and is "re-organizing." ...

- Follow the money
- We've all seen trillions of dollars of alleged assets disappear in recent weeks. A few big-time financial firms as well. This is having reverberations across the greentech energy sector. Here's a story on a wind-power project in Michigan that is now waiting for another gust of capital....

- Greentech Investing: Not So Fast
- There's an inevitable slowdown in venture capital investing and that's not good news for Silicon Valley nor the Cleantech start-ups. Last quarter VC activity was about one-third of the same quarter last year. While economists claim there's plenty of capital around, the investments being made are more cautious....

- Prices up, consumption down--market economics working for gasoline consumers?
- Yes, American gasoline prices have risen more than 30% in a year. Yes, consumption is now down in the U.S., year to year. Just under 4%. So maybe nobody ever said there was a one-to-one ratio. Bet if gasoline gets to $5 per gallon, consumption will...

- It's official gasoline now over $4 per gallon average in U.S.
- And that can only mean more interest and investment in clean tech. The AAA gas price survey topped $4 per gallon for the first time today. Morgan Stanley analysts have already said crude oil futures should hit $150 per barrel by July 4th. And you...

- Crude oil: OPEC cartel? Speculation? Unlimited demand?
- I am not sure there is a simple explanation for what's happening with crude oil prices. As with any unprecedented run-up in price on anything from Enron stock to tulip futures, there is always a mix of greed, speculation, widespread fear or eagerness, supply issues, etc. Please note...

- Alternative energy folks should be smiling as gas expected to soar in cost
- The U.S. government is preparing American drivers for $4 gasoline this spring. Meanwhile crude oil prices seem to be settled into a range just above $100/barrel. As long as the U.S. dollar stays weak and demand for oil doesn't drop considerably, there's no reason to expect lower oil prices....

- "Alternative energy" gets a boost from oil country
- Venezuela seems determined to make America's alternative energy companies into successful greentech ventures. Today the Venezuelan national oil company "stopped all sales" to Exxon.

- Green tech does not meet U.S. Senate's standards
- So if there is any energy bill that passes the U.S. Congress anytime soon, it will not have any requirement that utility companies use more alternative energy to generate electricity. Green tech does not play well on K Street and in some conservative states, it seems. This is not...

Every little blip in the fossil fuel market, every little Japanese quake that shuts a nuc plant, each political hiccup leads to even more interest in locally-produced alternative fuels.Today Ernst & Young projected $375 billion will be...
