EERE: News - January 19, 2005
Plans for the construction of a 10-megawatt geothermal power plant inIdaho gained ground early in January when Idaho Power Company agreedto buy power from the proposed facility. U.S. Geothermal Inc.announced on January 5th that it has signed a 20-year power purchaseagreement with Idaho Power. The company's Raft River Geothermal PowerPlant, to be located 10 miles east of Almo in southern Idaho, isscheduled to begin producing power in mid-2006. See theU.S. Geothermal press release ( PDF 88 KB ) and the Raft River project description . Download Acrobat Reader . ... [Read More]
Avian Collision and Electrocution: An Annotated Bibliography
The authors advise managers to discourage construction of power lines at eagle wintering sites, especially near communal roosts. New power lines should be constructed without electrocution hazards, and some existing power line poles should be modified to eliminate hazards. Power lines can be a significant cause of mortality for eagles, especially in broad, flat valleys where natural perches are not available. (Artificial perches designed for eagles have been only partially successful.) Electrocution accidents are most likely to occur on poles that provide a good view of the surrounding terrain and on crossarms that are crosswise to prevailing winds. Raptor electrocutions occur primarily during winter when eagles concentrate near human developments. ... [Read More]
Profiles in Renewable Energy: Case Studies of Successful Utility-Sector Projects
Several additional external factors contributed to the USW success, including the federal and state tax incentives of the early 1980s and support of the state regulatory commission with regard to the utility power purchase contracts. In addition, a need for power existed in the state, state energy policy is supportive of renewable energy development, and the power generated by the wind projects is supplied to large utilities with power systems that can easily accommodate the intermittent wind system power output. To date, transmission has not been an issue for USW projects because these projects have been located close to existing transmission facilities. ... [Read More]
Humanoid Robotics - Adaptive Robotics - Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory
As humanoids begin to tap the random variation of the external world and transmute entropy into creativity, philosophers will argue indefinitely about whether they have 'true' intelligence, will, or emotion. Regardless, the majority of us will project these traits into them anyway. These humanoids will not necessarily look like Robby or C3PO. YFX studios has designed an amazingly lifelike animatronic head. We will watch as humanoids do things our flesh bodies do not allow and will observe their power run out and see their bodies malfunction. We will know perfectly well that they are not human and yet this fact will not preclude emotional involvement. Even those who consider humanoids to be mere machines, unworthy of emotional interchange, will find themselves responding differently to one humanoid than another. Compare the YFX martial arts master with the picture of the interior mechatronics of a robot head ... [Read More]

INEEL - Lithium Battery Technology Recognized by DOE
The electrolyte structure does have its drawbacks, Harrup explained. Since the polymers take ponderous routes through the ceramic scaffold, the traveling lithium ions take longer than they could. Also, the ions are limited to traveling single-file along the polymer paths, unlike in a liquid where ions simultaneously move across the electrolyte at once, like an army marching over a field. This limitation is optimal for low-power, slow-release applications such as pacemakers, but needs improvement for higher-power applications such as portable CD players. "This is not the next battery that's going in your Walkman," he said, pointing out years of development work are still needed. ... [Read More]
