The Money of Energy

You will be able to power your home with energy you create yourself.

Or so that’s the catchphrase of the 21st generation of energy aware companies. “Anything that moves or produces heat has the potential to create energy that can be captured” Day to day energy creating actions such as walking, jogging, bicycling, the heat from your computer, even the water flowing through your pipes can be recycled by new, renewable energy technology reused to power our homes, offices and cities.

IBM has recently launched sixth annual “IBM 5 in 5″ (#ibm5in5) — a list of innovations that have the potential to change the way people work, live and interact during the next five years. The list is based on market and societal trends as well as emerging technologies from IBM’s research labs around the world that can make these transformations possible.

In terms of business, this is a huge new line of opportunity and innovation that is open for the engineers and businessmen alike. To harness renewable energy is to harness the pockets of 21st generation consumers. And not only will this drive profits, but it will give your company better publicity and make it more sustainable while you are minimizing your costs.
