Alternative / Green / Renewable Energy Products
Manufacturers & Services
Wind, Solar, Hydro, and Hydrogen Energy

If there is one buzz phrase that stands out above all others these days, it is "Alternative Energy," "Renewable Energy," "Green Energy," "Clean Energy," or something like that. I am a big proponent of clean, efficient, reusable everything - energy included. While I do not go to extreme measures to accomplish that goal (sorry, more than one square of TP required here), I am certain that I have done more than the vast majority of people (who have a choice) do. The only aspect of the Green movement that galls me is the whacko, in-your-face extremist who wants to tell me how to live my life ... or else, especially since they are typically some of the biggest hypocrites around.

A huge part of the multi-trillion dollar debt that we are having foisted upon us (and saddling our great-grandchildren with) will be going toward research and development, manufacturing, construction, and maintenance of clean energy sources like wind turbine generators, solar arrays, ocean wave and tidal generators, geothermal, and other types of generators. Radically new technologies like energy harvesting (recovering wasted energy of motion like in vehicular braking, suspension system damping, even body motions) are also becoming mainstream.

It is a brave new world with lots of opportunity. This is a chance for smart entrepreneurs to get back some of their tax money in the form of research grants. Check out the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants website. Please cut me in for some consulting business out of appreciation for my tip  ;-)

For your convenience, I have built a set of pages with hand-selected companies. My policy is to only list companies that actually manufacture product or offer services related to the page title subject. Product distributors and sales representatives are not listed (they have their own page). This helps guarantee that each listing offers a unique product or service.
