The first national radio show dedicated to the business of renewable energy will make its debut from the Miami studios of 880 The Biz (WZAB) on Monday, July 13, at 6:00 pm Eastern time.

Pure Energy is hosted by noted energy expert Sean O’Hanlon, Executive Director of the American Biofuels Council (ABC).

Pure Energy“We’re going to talk about all forms of energy and we’re going to focus primarily on the business side of alternatives and renewables in the energy sector,” said O’Hanlon. “Most people focus on clean, green and sustainable but overlook the economic side of it – job creation, cost savings, cost competitiveness and the opportunity to invest in various technologies and companies in renewables.” The program will include all aspects of energy, from policy and petroleum concerns to wind, solar, hydro-electric, geothermal, and biofuels.

Guests for the premier show include two renowned energy authorities – worldwide peak oil expert Richard Heinberg, author of nine books including “Peak Everything” and aerospace engineer Dr. Robert Zubrin, author of Energy Victory, who says the nation needs and energy show like this right now. “I think it’s a great thing and I think it would be better if we had a network of such in every city across the country,” said Zubrin. “Because for America to break free from the oil cartel is essential for our future and people everywhere need to know how we can do it.”

Interested in learning how to turn algae into gold? Oops, I mean energy? Scientists around the world are developing technologies to turn algae into a substitute for oil. Why is this so important? Because petroleum biproducts are used in everything from diesel to nylons to pharmacuticals to make-up. Today, algae is the only way to replace the needed hydrocarbons in the the transportation sectors and manufacturing sectors.

This single feedstock can produce biodiesel ethanol, biocrude, renewable diesel, renewable gasoline, and jet fuel.

Sam Sheperd, a chemical engineer, founded Algae to Energy, LLC in 2003. They have developed a unique way to turn algae into energy. Check out this feature video on Sam, his company and their technology.

Miami, FL (July 7, 2009) – Pure Energy, the first national radio show dedicated to the business of renewable energy, is launching from the Miami studios of 880 The Biz (WZAB) on Monday, July 13, 2009 at 6:00 p.m. EDT. Pure Energy is hosted by noted energy expert Sean O’Hanlon, who is also the Executive Director of the American Biofuels Council (ABC). Guests for the premier show include renowned engineer and author Dr. Robert Zubrin as well as worldwide peak oil expert and author of nine books including “Peak Everything,” Richard Heinberg.

“With oil prices heading back over $70/bbl, and set to go higher, it could not be more urgent for America to take immediate action to break free of the stranglehold of the oil cartel,” said Zubrin, author of “Energy Victory”. The U.S. congress could effectively destroy OPEC with the stroke of a pen simply by passing a law requiring that all new cars sold in the U.S. be flex fueled. Such a law would make flex fuel the international standard and would thereby create fuel choice all around the world.”

The one step program to breaking our dependence on foreign oil? All cars sold in America must be a flex-fuel vehicle (FFV). These are the opening lines from one of Robert Zubrin’s presentations on how our country can sever its ties to terrorism. World renowned engineer and author of “Energy Victory,” Zubrin is set to be a guest on Pure Energy’s premier show.

Zubrin will tell our listeners how, “our decades-long relationship with OPEC has resulted in the looting of our economy, the corruption of our political system, and now the funding and protection of terrorist regimes and movements that are committed to our destruction.” His segment will be nothing short of tantalizing as O’Hanlon and Zubrin engage in a lively debate about the best way to end America’s addiction to oil.

Don’t miss out on the celebration of two of the biggest business launches this year in South Florida. Everyone will be there, will you?

With the realization that we’re running out of fossil fuels, and those that we have left are going to get more and more expensive, the alternative energy industry is finally gaining traction in both the U.S. and around the world. But what are the best technologies? How quickly can we bring these technologies to market? How much is it going to cost? Where is the money going to come from? What policies are in place, should be in place or shouldn’t be in place to help ensure the success of these emerging alternative energies? How is the Age of Renewable Energy going to affect businesses?

Worry no more. Sean O’Hanlon will be answering all these questions and more during his weekly radio show Pure Energy.

The show debuts July 13th at 6:00 p.m. EST on 880 The Biz. You can also listen live right here at PureEnergyShow.com.
