Emerging technology that turns waste heat into energy is about to get a hard-core field test in separate pilot projects for the U.S. Air Force and the U.S. Army. The projects will bring a combined $1.48 million to Alphabet Energy, a company that emerged from stealth earlier this year with a hire that will focus [...]

The data from Verdantix suggest that the overall market for carbon and energy management software [...]

The numbers that I’ve already reported this year in terms of the venture capital going into green companies and technologies may just be the tip of the iceberg. A new report from Ethical Markets Media suggests that private green-focused investments now top more than $2 trillion globally. (The U.S.-specific VC investment in cleantech companies was [...]
