California, Texas, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon, New york, Missouri WASHINGTON (March 12, 2014) More than 78,600 clean energy and clean transportation jobs were announced in 2013 at 260

Other strong sectors included building efficiency and public transportation. Job announcements were made in 46 states, with California roughly 15,400 jobs topping the list.

This is the second full year that E2 has tracked clean energy and clean transportation job announcements. Over the past two years combined, E2 has tracked more than 500 announcements that could create more than 186,500 jobs.

When we invest in clean energy and clean transportation, we put people to work in every corner of the country.

Here a closer look at some clean energy and clean transportation announcements in 2013:**In California, the California Ethanol and Power Project will produce 66 million gallons of ethanol annually from sugar cane and sweet sorghum.

2013, Elon musk, chief executive of Tesla motors TSLA+2. 28%and Spacex, revealed details of a new super fast mode of transportation called the Hyperloop.

500 kilometers or 900 miles apart and is based on the principle of transporting high-speed transport capsules in a dedicated tube (partial vacuum).

it is still a significant breakthrough in high-speed mass transportation because the technology and intellectual property has been floated to the public as an open source transportation solution.

Yet the Hyperloop is not the only radical transport solution currently in development, the Canadian firm Magnovate aims to commercialize Magline, a proprietary magnetic levitation transport solution.

Magline further improves on system economics by utilizing apacket switching model that enables offline stops without slowing traffic on the mainline.

This enables more vehicles that are connected not to one another to run more often on the network.

one of a class known as multidrug and toxic compound extrusion transporters (MATES) that are found in cell membranes.

Previous efforts to identify compounds that block MATE transporters have been unsuccessful partly because researchers had a poor understanding of how these proteins work.

Then after spending decades building the ISS the US cancelled the space shuttle the vehicle originally intended for transport to the ISS as part of its post-Apollo programme.

""Our research focuses on understanding the physics of thermal transport on submicron length-scales in the presence of an interface,

"Our study focused on a variety of crystals that have controlled differences in thermal transport properties, such as Si, doped Si,

Wilson and Cahill also studied the effect of interfaces on nanoscale thermal transport.""It's been well known for 75 years that the presence of a boundary adds a thermal boundary resistance to the heat-transfer problem,

but it's always been assumed that this boundary resistance was localized to the interface and independent of the thermal transport properties of the underlying material,"Cahill added."

Stacked compounds are ideal for charge transport since this configuration has the largest charge transport anisotropy.

Charge transport anisotropy is a phenomenon where electrons flow faster along a particular crystallographic direction due to close molecule-molecule interactions.

while maintaining exceptional ability to transport charges. This is achieved thanks to clever nanoengineering of the active layer inside the device.

one can achieve significantly higher charge transport and electricity than had previously been possible using the same materials.

This means that the transport of electric charges occurs with a very little energy loss. Previous studies have reported that there is a percolation threshold for the amount of carbon nanotubes necessary to transport efficiently electric charges in a device.
