VIRGINIA BEACH -- A draft report on alternative energy for Va. Beach will be reviewed for the first time Thursday night.
The Mayor's Alternative Energy Task Force met six times last year to review the latest developments in wind power, natural gas, algae for biodiesel fuel, wave and tidal current energy, offshore drilling for oil and gas, solar power and climate change.
(The success of the biodiesel fuel industry relies heavily on biodiesel testing <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s32Ke2VzrqU>, not only at the production level but at the consumer level, where degraded fuel may cause engine failures. Of major concern to diesel and biodiesel users is the very real possibility that water has contaminated their fuel. (See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YcczdvPyAk). The potential catastrophic impact of this problem is discussed at length in this video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lh4qhXc_5s&feature=youtube_gdata.
Fleet Fuel's family of inexpensive biodiesel test kits is just a click away on the internet at:
