    Emerging Technologies That Will Change the World

    Emerging Technologies That Will Change the World:

    These 17 energy technologies will change the world between now and 2030.

    Below are technologies related to energy under three key areas of accelerating change: Storage, Smart grid and Electricity generation. Energy storage involves new, cost-effective ways of storing energy, either in improved batteries, as new fuels or other ways. A smart grid is a set of technologies that pairs information with moving electricity around, enabling more efficient generation and use of energy. Electricity generation is characterized by technologies that generate power from unused sources and that more efficiently produce electric power or fuels from sources in use today.
    We have included predictions based on consultation with experts of when each technology will be scientifically viable (the kind of stuff that Google, governments, and universities develop), mainstream (when VCs and startups widely invest in it), and financially viable (when the technology is generally available on Kickstarter).

    Sounds like someone is trying to peddle stock in start-ups. Give us the wishful-thinking list from 16 years ago so we can see how that panned out.

    So based on the article, which specific company should we invest in. By name, please.

    Whichever one uses the most expensive public relations firm is what we will invest in. Until the inventor-employees are given at least 50% of the value of the patents, I wouldn't trust this Goose That Laid the Golden Eggheads system. Science Is for Suckers. MIT graduates are quitting it in droves to go work on Wall Street (and it wasn't just one tiny group at the other casinos, as in the movie, 21).

    When Bill Gates was a teenager, out of love of playing with computers he saved a company a million dollars. He only got paid a few thousand. That's when he decided to work the other end of the exploitation system. Even more defiant, I'd advise High IQs to use their brains only to confiscate the wealth extorted from their predecessors, which means all the wealth the plutocratic parasites have. Did Steve Jobs invent the I-Pod? Why do people act like he did, instead of one of his geek slaves?
