Energy Advocates
Pickens Plan
Wind is free, renewable and stable. This source of energy is really better for our environment than even clean burning fusion. There is no risk of explosion and repairs can be made very easily. The maintenance costs are even low once established. T. Boone Pickens advocates such a resource and has recently stood against the odds to bring the discussion of wind power to the table. He indicates that our use of oil is growing at a staggering rate. In 1970, the US imported 24% and the import is now in the neighborhood of 70%.
A 2005 study conducted by Stanford University concluded that the abundant potential for wind power would satisfy global needs at least 7 times the current need. Pickens believes the investment to build wind turbines in the high wind areas of the US would pay off and be worth the initial investment. His campaign is growing and gaining national attention. While there are many who have advocated this for many years, it just might take a powerhouse individual like Pickens to get results.

In 2003, a determined team of entrepreneurs, scientists, and engineers from around the world joined forces with a mission to introduce commercially viable, clean hydrogen fuel cell power. Adopting a global approach from the start, the newly formed international team founded Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies in Singapore and established its production facilities in Shanghai. The company is now expanding internationally through localized partnerships in Japan, Latin America, North America, and Europe.
The company's overall vision is aligned with world, national, and scientific leaders seeking to eliminate mankind's reliance on carbon-based fuels in favor of clean, low-cost energy for all the planet's citizens, generated from climate-friendly and renewable resources. By choosing the heart of the world’s fastest growing economy as a main base of operations, the company is at the forefront of change and a prime witness to world-scale energy and environmental challenges.
In addition to achieving a series of technological breakthroughs, Horizon has built a comprehensive technology and manufacturing platform capable of viably introducing fuel cells into early commercial markets. After providing a first glimpse of its possibilities with the successful worldwide launch of its first fuel cell powered consumer products, the company has now emerged as a world leading producer of high performance PEM fuel cells and electrolyzers.
Today, Horizon is producing extremely compact, lightweight, simple and cost-competitive PEM fuel cells that are suitable for many specialty and mainstream applications, including portable power, aerospace and clean transportation solutions.
