Norway's Statkraft Looks at Power from Osmosis
Norway's Statkraft is looking at osmosis as a possible energy source. Currently the output is minimal but it may be the way of the future.
" ... Norway's Statkraft says that its new, first-of-its-kind
osmotic power plant could be producing as much energy as a small wind
farm by 2015, ... when the process of osmosis
takes place ... the pressure is apparently enough
to drive a power generating turbine ... enough of those
you have a power plant. A bit of effort, to be sure, but the process
doesn't emit any greenhouse gases, is completely renewable, and it
doesn't depend on the wind or the sun being out."
