This week we saw renewable energy take the world by storm as Spain announced plans to construct the world’s largest wind turbine and a team of engineers made waves with plans for an underwater turbine modeled after whale flippers. We also saw Boeing shine light on plans to produce a new breed of ultra-efficient solar panels that are suited for space.While researchers in Japan developed a potent new kinetic generator that’s as tiny as a pencil tip. Innovative eco transportation also picked up the pace as China rolled out plans to produce the first fuel cell powered light rail train and the world’s largest solar-powered boat made its successful maiden voyage across the Atlantic.We also applauded the Nissan Leaf as it took first place as the European Car of the Year and we were wowed by Mercedes’ next-generation concept car which may one day be grown in a lab. We also showcased several new ways that technology stands to wire our lives, starting with an electronic smart wallet that curbs spending by clamping shut like a clam. We also looked at Harvard’s plans for a laptop computer powered by biogas and we were impressed by Nike’s next-gen design tools for producing environmentally efficient clothes.
