Using semiconductor technology, the appliance-sized units are pump-stations and ethanol distillers that can be installed at residences by the GreenHouse distribution team.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Each MicroFueler requires three kilowatts of electricity to produce a gallon of Efuel100, in turn one gallon of Efuel100 will generate up to 23 kilowatts of power. The system&#8217;s proponents claim the ethanol generated will play an integral part in reducing California greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.energycurrent.com\/index.php?id=3&amp;storyid=18536\">See more<\/a><\/p>\n<p>By the way, have you <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/blog\/feed\/rss.xml\">subscribed to the Oilgae Blog?<\/a>; How about <a href=\"http:\/\/oilgae.com\/mlist\/user\/subscribe.php\">joining the Oilgae mailing list?<\/a>; and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/forum\">our forum to discuss on with others<\/a>?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You are at: Oilgae Blog.
