Clean-tech focus sparks growth

Abstract:
Y-Carbon Inc., a Ben Franklin-supported company that uses nanotechnology to make carbon materials that have energy, life-sciences and environmental applications, plans to launch its manufacturing and development operations at Keystone's Bridge Business Center in Bristol next month. Y-Carbon, which will maintain its headquarters in King of Prussia, received $150,000 in federal stimulus funds this month to help pay for the fit-out of its new space.

Federal stimulus dollars also have factored into Keystone's overall redevelopment of the Bridge Business Center, with $1 million in funds to help pay for a $2.6 million system that uses natural gas and micro-turbines on the roof of one building to generate power for, and heat and cool, the building.
