Joel Greenberg on the Future of Energy and Life in A Social Media World

Stan Ovshinsky Interview

I hopped in the car at 4 am and drove up to Dallas two weeks ago to attend the NanoTX’08 conference. Traffic along IH35 was light, until I got passed fabulous Waxahachie and ran into Dallas morning traffic. Thinking about how bucky balls can affect our future energy needs, I pulled into the hotel just a few blocks away from Dealey Plaza and hoped for the best.

Great news, Stanford Ovshinsky gave the morning keynote. As he agreed to an on camera interview, I found him very approachable and open to discussing his work with non-scientists, especially his plans for a one gigawatt solar plant that’s produce electricity cheaper than coal.
