POPSTax Credit Victory for Fuel Cell Biz FuelCell Energy, which makes stationary power generators, notched a Beltway win last week with the long-term extension of a tax credit subsidizing fuel cell tech. We mentioned the company's support of the tax credit in this story: http://www.forbes.com/businessinthebeltway/2007/02/14/sunpower-fuelcell-energy-biz-wash-cz_atg_0214fuelcell.html Unfortunately, our bullish call on FuelCell Energy's stock now doesn't look so great.

POPSU.S. Department of Energy: Six Solar Bets Yesterday, the U.S. Department of Energy gave the nod to six solar companies working on advanced photovoltaic tech. The companies chosen hail from California, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. Among them: 1366 Technologies, a company we profiled recently here: http://www.forbes.com/businessinthebeltway/2008/08/19/beltway-solar-vanmierlo-biz-wash-cz_atg_0820beltway.html The dollar amounts here are a long way from staggering, and, as the DOE's press release notes, they are "subject to annual appropriations." At the very least, the win fits 1366's explicit strategy of working with public sector.

POPSFossils tell of mass exodus from sea Creatures could develop some protection from the sun in the water, but the land was wide open, and predators were yet to get anywhere the efficiency of ocean based predators. They can understand why shelled arthropods had the protection to survive, but can't understand the survival of soft bodied things like worms and Molluscs? then perhaps they can explain why a slug like creature evolved a shell and branched unto the Snail genotype. i don't imagine life is safe anywhere for exposed slugs and worms, and solar radiation, particularly UV Light can accelerate development. and change. Perhaps they were moving to the place that was the least dangerous.
