College, Bryan or 107 Dominik, College Station Clip Coupon, Researchers, industry discuss solar energy AUSTIN (AP) — Solar cars, cow manure-driven power plants and sun-fueled space capsules are just a few of the ideas slated for discussion this week in Austin at the National Solar Energy Conference. The four-day event, which orga nizers say is the largest solar confer ence in the world this year and the biggest ever in the United States, combines the nation’s two major re newable energy organizations. The conference is expected to draw 700 to 900 participants and link 3,600 professionals in the American Solar Energy Society with 260 companies of the Solar Energy Industries Association. “I think it will stimulate some more cooperative efforts between researchers, engineers — that type of people — and industry,” said Larry Sherwood, executive director of the ASES. He said that after years of neglect under the Reagan administration, solar energy is taking its place in the sun as the new Department of En ergy and Environmental Protection Agency encourages research and marketing. Bruce Hunn, chair of ASES’s an nual conference, said the gathering will show manufacturers and distrib utors the latest research, which fore shadows products of the future. “At the same time, when (they) can talk to the manufacturers, re searchers then are able to gear their research in more practical ways,” said Hunn, who is with the Univer sity of Texas at Austin’s Center for Energy Studies. The conference, which runs March 19-22, will feature general sessions, technical workshops and fa cility tours. Educational exhibits will be at Palmer Auditorium, while in dustry and commercial presenta tions will be at the Hyatt Regency Hotel. Hunn said he hopes to spark in terest in solar products, like home water heaters. He said curiosity about solar power is on the rise be^ cause of concern about global warm ing and pollution. “People realize that global warm ing is exacerbated by the use of fossil fuels, and they start to think, ‘What can I do about that?’ ” he said. Linda Ladas, director of pro grams for the Solar Energy Indus tries Association, said there is “a re newed interest on Capitol Hill and a renewed interest in the United States from consumers” in solar en- er gy- She said a creeping rise in energy costs combined with environmental concerns surrounding the use of nu clear energy and fossil fuels should help the $30 million-a-year renewa ble energy industry grow steadily.
