Energy, the Next Boom Industry
Energy, the Next Boom Industry
The changes in the energy industry will create huge opportunities for new technology, says the author of this post @ Alt Energy Technology.
The energy business is about to change in a big way, and its growth could dwarf the changes in the Internet and telecom businesses. Similar to what happened to the IT & Telecom businesses starting a decade ago, we can start to see the changes happening in the energy industry now. The incumbent oil companies and other energy companies like the way it is, the oil companies and will react the same way and protect their core businesses at all costs, as did the big telecom companies. By the time the large telecom companies started reacting to the changes seriously, it was too late. The same could happen to the large energy companies, feels the author.
Alternative energy has the potential of making the Internet/Telecom boom look like pocket change. Energy is a trillion dollar market and growing and any company that gets a piece of that action will do extremely well.

Energy Alternatives Competing For Funding
Energy Alternatives Competing For Funding
Advocates of various sources of alternative energy are beginning to point out the competition's warts. Everyone wants to use the energy crisis as leverage to support his or her solution.
But with limited government research and development money for ways to replace oil, any technology's gain is a loss for the others. So the criticism is flying in all directions.
