Scientists at MIT have engineered synthetic molecules that self-assemble themselves into a pattern that can turn light into electricity by mimicking a key aspect of how plants convert sunlight into stored energy.Basically, the molecules disassemble and re-assemble themselves by the addition or removal of a certain chemical. The assembled 'phospholipids' form disks that offer support to protein molecules that respond to light and release electrons. The disks in turn are attached spontaneous

Eskom has made a US$3.75 billion project loan application from the World Bank, which is supported the the South African government. The investment programme is aimed at extending power generation capacity of Eskom by about 50% from the current 40,000 MW. Included in the programme are plans to build Africa's first clean coal "supercritical" 4,800 MW power station, one 100 MW Wind Power project, one 100 MW Solar project as well as investment in low-carbon energy efficiency components such as trans
