Scientists are eyeing the jet stream, an energy source that rages night and day, 365 days a year, just a few miles above our heads. If they can tap into its fierce winds, the world's entire electrical needs could be met, they say. The trick is figuring out how to harness the energy and get it down to the ground cost-effectively and safely.

Getting electricity from the sun has clear environmental benefits and can make sense economically. But to install solar panels, customers and installers face big up-front costs and a maze of government incentive programs.

Great Northern Hydroponics of Kingsville will begin installing this spring a new "co-generation" system, designed to supply electricity and heating for a 20-hectare greenhouse facility that's capable of producing more than nine million kilograms of tomatoes annually.

Just what Lebanon needs: a disruption in power supplied by Syria to replace the energy lost when Israel destroyed the Lebanese power stations. The disruption was supposedly due to technical issues, not because of a political decision by Syria. The state-owned Lebanese power company, Electricite du Liban, thought the outage would last 2-3 days.

Hundreds of old coal-fired power plants still haven't installed modern pollution controls. One plant is so vital to the Washington, D.C. region's electricity supply that the government bends pollution rules to keep it running.

Busy train stations (those with large numbers of passengers willing to bounce heavily through the gates) will be able to accumulate a relatively large amount of electricity. It works by embedding piezo elements in the ground.
