Greetings!
As we move into the New Year, our economy is still struggling and in the personal transportation sector, global sales of passenger vehicles fell by 20% but 2020 sales of electric vehicles (EV) soared by an additional 38% as compared to 2019 (Wood Mackenzie, www.woodmac.com).
The chief analyst for Wood Mackenzie also forecasts that EV sales will
grow another 25% in this decade, if not more. This coincides with the
push by many auto makers including General Motors who is striving for a
“zero-emissions future”. Perhaps because an environmentally conscious
woman is in charge (CEO Mary Barra), GM wants to “be part of the
solution by putting everyone in an electric vehicle”
(GM.com/electric-vehicles.html).
Since our main focus is energy, it is always exciting to find a new
discovery such as viruses which are now shown to produce their own
energy! Story #1 is a breakthrough describing giant viruses that do so,
thereby leading into the question of whether viruses are alive or not.
This article shows an artist’s drawing of one of these mimiviruses that
simply encloses DNA in a protein shell. However, such mimiviruses also
have their own adaptive immune system to
destroy invaders
Another type discussed in Story #1 is the pandoravirus, giving rise to
the title of the article, that generates a membrane potential that is an
electrical gradient across their outer membrane. Such an accomplishment
requires a generator and a flow of energy from inside the virus, such
as with human, plant and animal single cells. Furthermore, it normally
serves a distinct purpose to produce ATP but in a virus the method of
generation and the purpose of the voltage potential is a mystery waiting
to be solved. Quite intriguing for an inert bunch of protein that is
normally not considered to be alive…or is it?
Story #2 is the third installment of the recent US Navy Patent
Documents, all of which are unusual and controversial. Some of us who
worked at the US Patent and Trademark Office wonder how they were
allowed to become patents without a constructive reduction to practice
for such theoretically speculative ideas. However, this article surmises
from a FOIA how Dr. Pais survived an internal review with costly
testing from the Navy before proceeding with the patent applications. We
leave it to our readers to decide if gravity modification is now a
possibility since it has been patented.
Story #3 comes on the heels of the UK declaring a new commitment to tokamak
nuclear fusion power by
2040. Across the pond, General Fusion’s Jeff Bezos says their design
can be more practical than tokamaks in Story #3, which was just released
this week. Commonwealth Fusion Systems is also competing and targeting
2025 for their use of extraordinary magnets to pressurize elements into
superhot plasma.
Story #4 is an exiting upgrade from the Tesla Powerwall 2 with an
Australian company Lavo that offers a 40 kWh hydrogen fuel cell with
three times the capacity of the Tesla Powerwall 2. This can power an
average home for two days if the grid is down, while additional solar or
wind can make it grid-independent.
Story #5 is a great development for this country with New Jersey
finally joining the trend of offshore wind with the biggest wind
turbines ever built (12 MW capacity).

General Electric says that each turbine (out of the 99 to be built)
will take 10,000 fossil fuel cars off the road annually. The wind farm
is expected to start operating soon…by 2024...and provide enough power
for about 94% of the New Jersey homes, which is pretty amazing. However,
it is only the second largest after New York State.
Lastly, if you become a new Member of IRI in the next month, we
will send along a FREE copy of the Double DVD set from COFE12
(www.futurenergy.org ) with ALL of the complete 14 hours of lectures in
MP4 full color format.
