How Google and Intel plan to up server power efficiency

How Google and Intel plan to up server power efficiency

Nope, it's not digital power. It's about having one supply instead of four.

As motors go green, free code helps to further reduce price
Forty percent of the world's electricity is consumed by motors. This makes it easy to see why companies like International Rectifier and Microchip are investing in the creation of products that make motors run more efficiently.

20 years later, we still have 40 years of oil left
Trying to predict that far out is mostly useless. But the exercise itself is worthwhile because of all the key points it brings out.
