Florida’s cleaner electricity from high efficiency power plant preserves fossil fuel addiction
Florida Power and Light (FPL) is taking delivery of the third of three Siemens ultra-high-efficiency natural gas turbines for FPL’s Port Everglades Next Generation Clean Energy Center. The Siemens SGT6-8000H gas turbines and Siemens SST6-5000 steam turbine at the site are the core of FPL’s modernization of the Clean Energy Center.…
Lockheed promises compact fusion reactor, cheap and safe enough to remake society according to the hype
Today Lockheed-Martin announced new Fusion Reactor technology which could shift humanity’s energy supply from the stone-age mentality to the modern energy paradigm. Some of my recent postings have drawn a distinction between the old energy paradigm, that I’ve called the stone age energy mindset (burning things to get light, heat…
What’s the difference between stone age energy, and the new energy paradigm?
The starting point of LongTailPipe is cars and the transportation system, looking at solutions to the transportation system’s negative environmental impact. We look at the full spectrum of impacts and solutions, even though we seem to focus on electric vehicles. That’s why the topic is sometimes fracking, and we’ll cover…
Tesla’s net zero energy Gigafactory points towards the new energy paradigm
Are “we” doing too-little-too-late to fend off the crises caused by peak oil and climate change and the impacts both will have on the world economy, our food systems, and more? Looking at the level of resistance against clean energy technologies like electric vehicles, it’s easy for gloom and doom…
