Student-run Energy 2.0 focuses on cleantech innovation, investment

Abstract:
The MIT-New England Energy Showcase, a forum to display the latest and most innovative energy research and business endeavors from MIT and New England, attracted 1,000 attendees and featured exhibits from local energy start-ups such as Lowell, Mass.-based Konarka, which has developed a light-activated plastic; A123 Systems of Watertown, Mass., which uses nanoscale science to create a new generation of lithium ion batteries; and the Harvard, Mass., developer of the FOX Furnace, which generates hot water from food fats, oil and grease.
