An Energy Mystery: Electricity Vampires, or Where is the Power Going? : read more

A 2002 study from Cornell University estimated that "vampire appliances" were costing American consumers 3 billion dollars a year in wasted energy. And today's electricity prices would probably make that cost estimate seem quite conservative.

But it's only when you obtain and use a kilowatt meter that you become painfully aware of the amount of electricity that many appliances use when they are switched off.

Calera cement, funded by Vinod Khosla, which would take CO2 from the air to make cement and contour crafting which is a technology for printing buildings to speed up construction by 100 timees.

Vinod Khosla is pouring his own millions into science experiments to counter global warming — and to prove he’s the smartest guy in the Valley.

Making cement without also making carbon dioxide seems impossible; the basic chemistry of the process releases the gas. But maybe that’s not really true, Stanford University scientist Brent Contstantz began thinking last year.

Most non-residential buildings are unoccupied at Christmas as the regular occupants are at home for the holiday season. But, for many buildings, the Christmas period is a disaster as far as energy management is concerned, as lots of equipment is left switched on unnecessarily.
