#5...could provide a third of America's present power requirements.
A wide range of things have been getting more energy efficient TV, lighting, computers, heating cooling, insulation, etc.

U.S. energy demand has actually fairly steady. It was slightly lower in 2014 vs 2008. http://www.indexmundi.com/g/g.aspx?c=us&v=81 A wide range of things have been getting more energy efficient TV, lighting, computers, heating cooling, insulation, etc.

#8So this is another piezoelectric project I guess. Some european country made a piezoelectric section of road that purportedly powers a whole village during rush hour. Of course that road, build from a _very rare and expensive material_ is just some european country's science fair project. Powering a village of whatever is literally nothing except bragging rights.
Reflective solar death rays are the only renewable capable of producing reasonable amounts of energy at this point to even consider putting it into production.
All these "renewables" are basically just distractions funded by the oil cartels. We have an energy source that's cheaper than coal, more reliable, _safer_ for humans and better for the environment than fossils. It's called nuclear, and it's killed less people than hydroelectric -- possibly less than wind and solar, but I don't know that. For the petro-dollar to reign king, people need to be tricked into thinking that anything cheaper than oil is dangerous, and anything safer than oil is expensive (inefficient).
Ironically the only companies breaking this perception, newer low cost electric vehicles, are well known to actually ravage the environment way harder than a petro-car.

Stopped caring after seeing that

#10Are they saying it could provide a third of America's power (I'm guessing current electricity consumption) from America's coastal waters, or from the whole of the world's oceans?
