According to representatives at Startkraft in the article, there is a new kind of energy that is a renewable resource. In the search for alternatives to fossil fuels they came upon a most amazing discovery. Startkraft had found that you could make energy from the clash of sea water and fresh water. To make this work Startkraft would take a giant tank of water with a sort of membrane that would seperate the fresh from the salt and the membrane would allow only the water to go through it. While the water was going through the membrane the salt would rub up against the membrane and create a small electrical charge. While Startkraft was experimenting with it there was also another company that found it and tried it out in Harlingen, Texas. Unlike the solar energy and the wind energy the water is constant and does not depend on what kind of weather we are having. The design for it to be set up is to have a series of pipes with membranes in the middle and iron wiring up to designated places. They say if it were to work they would be selling it for seven to fourteen kilowatts per hour in 2015.
What other kinds of energies do you think they will come out with next?
How much money do you think it will take to put up the tubes and wires?
