...former owners, publicly owned utilities, and they can use economies of scale to their advantage. Despite the fact that no new plants have been ordered in almost a quarter-century, the nuclear power sector still accounts for 20% of the nation's electricity supply. During the past decade, output has increased 25%, equivalent to building 23 new 1,000-megawatt plants. And the beat will go on: the initial 40-year licenses of a small but growing number of units are being renewed for an additional two decades...
...away, however, a nearly identical plant is under construction, this one owned by one of Taiwan's best-known chipmakers, Richard Chang's Semiconductor Manufacturing International. Combined, the dozen production lines in the two factories should be able to produce about a fifth of Taiwan's total output. Government officials privately concede that they're also worried that Taiwan's biggest chip producer, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp., will ultimately move production to China. "The move to China is inevitable," says Chang. In five years, China may have dulled Taiwan's technological edge and stolen its best people, and that...
...study shows how the Federal Government, the largest energy user with 500,000 buildings, could spend $5.2 billion to reduce its energy consumption 20% and recoup the investment in little more than five years. The Energy Department's Lawrence Berkeley lab developed a fluorescent table lamp that matches the output of a 150-W bulb using a quarter of the energy. When Ari Fleisher was asked last week whether the President would be asking citizens to change their lifestyle given that we consume more energy per capita than any other people on the planet, he said, "That...
...privileged spot in the report, essentially encourage regulators to take energy concerns into account when attempting to save the environment from our nation's prodigious energy consumption. That said, the group does encourage the president to pursue three-pollutant legislation, to limit the sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide and mercury output of electricity generators...
...passive, then at least quiet to the point of inwardness. They had that character right from the start of his career. Thus the earliest of the 15 Vermeers in this show--because of the massive borrowing power of the Met, it contains nearly half his known output--is his one and only mythological scene, of the moon goddess Diana. The favorite Diana myth among painters showed her bathing with her nymphs (good opening for a painter to show what he could do with pretty nudes) and spied upon by a Peeping Tom of a hunter, Actaeon; whereat the virgin moon...
