Interesting news on Green Technology around the world
Green Power-The Danish Proposal
Denmark is on the way to achieve substantial generation of renewable energy and there is a need to design a system of storing the energy during off peak hours so that it can be re-channelled back into the grid during the day when energy demand is greater. Danish architectural firm Gottlieb Paludan has proposed the building of an energy reservoir on an island. Basically the idea is to use spare energy during off peak hours to pump water up a two level reservoir and to reverse the system during peak hour. Additional features include adding wind turbines and solar panels on the island and the cultivation of marine algae in the surrounding sea water. Incidentally, the man made island will serve as a traffic link between the island of Zealand and the peninsular of Jutland.

Hawaii deep blue
According to a team of researchers at the University of Hawaii, Manoa, the waters around the island of Hawaii can be made into an ocean based renewable energy powerhouse. The Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) process proposed by the team utilizes temperate differences in large bodies of water to spin turbines. There is a one degree Celsius differential between the western side of the Hawaiian Islands and the eastern side. When a heat engine is placed between warm water gathered from the ocean surface and cold water pumped from deep under the sea, the flow of heat from the warm reservoir to the cold one will spin turbines to produce electricity. Other areas with a greater difference of inter mixing currents will be able to generate more power.

Japanese Green Funds
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp of Japan has agreed to extend a 200 million dollar “green financing” scheme to Malaysian manufacturers. The green initiative is accorded to waste management, recycling and renewable energy projects. Criteria for the financing are being worked out by the Sumitomo Mitsui and the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers (FMM). It is understood that the package will be extended to all manufacturers in Malaysia. Sumitomo Mitsui is happy with the increase of green technologies in Malaysia and is ready to further promote its growth.
