A production line for carbon fiber takes the PAN precursor through two stages (stabilization/oxidation and carbonization) and then to winding. The site expansion, scheduled to be completed by early 2015, will make the plant in Moses Lake the world’s largest carbon fiber plant. Source: SGLACF. Click to enlarge.

Even as demand increases, the world will continue to become more efficient in its energy use, according to the 2015 Outlook for Energy: A View to 2040. Wind, solar and biofuels are expected to be the fastest-growing energy sources, increasing about 6% a year on average through 2040, when they will be approaching 4% of global energy demand.

During his campaign, President Obama said he would work to put one million plug-in hybrids on American roads by 2015. OK, Oh Brainless One, spouter of endless lies and idiocies, explain how your dream of one million electrics on the road by 2015 has any significance? Just think they may have a rapid charging option today.
