Green Internet and Cyber-infrastructure Overview

Governments around the world are wrestling with the challenge of how to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The current preferred approaches are to impose carbon taxes and implement various forms of cap and trade, which effectively is a hidden tax. However another approach to help reduce carbon emission is to “reward” those directly who reduce their carbon footprint. One possible reward system is to provide homeowners with free fiber to the home or free wireless products and other electronic services such as ebooks and eMovies if they deploy micro renewable energy sources for their ICT equipment. Not only does the consumer benefit, but this business model also provides new revenue opportunities for network operators, optical equipment manufacturers, and eCommerce application providers.

Linking renewable energy with the Internet using eVehicles and pathway charging, may provide for a whole new "energy Internet" infrastructure for linking small distributed renewable energy sources to users. For more details please see:

Must watch video: on the move electric vehicle charging at University of Auckland


[I am very excited to see the recent announcement from University of Auckland of their very innovative inductive charging system for electric vehicles.
This is something I have been blogging about for some time that car manufacturers are trapped in an old world thinking that vehicles must be stationary to be refueled. This was true when using fossil fuels, but with electric vehicles there is no reason why they cannot be charged while on the move. This technology also allows retailers such as drive through banks or fast food restaurants to offer free charging of your electric vehicles from their roof top solar panels – “will that be fries with your free electric charge”. It also enables the idea that the electric vehicle can be an energy transport system in direct competition with the traditional utility grid. More importantly it complements our existing suburban lifestyle. It is innovations like this that maybe, just maybe,  might save us from the Armageddon of global warming.
