Lawrenceville Plasma Physics (LPP) is conducting peer-reviewed research into a low-cost nuclear fusion generator that would provide clean, abundant and safe electricity to a worldwide market. Our patented technology combines a device called the dense plasma focus and the advanced fusion fuel hydrogen and boron-11 (p-B11) in an approach we call "Focus Fusion." Upon demonstration of scientific feasibility in 2011, we anticipate a clear engineering path towards the commercialization of what will amount to unlimited energy with no radioactive waste. In addition to valuable spin-off applications in non-destructive inspection and medical isotopes, LPPs commercial product will be compact, mass-manufactured 5 MW generators with costs less than any competing energy source. In 2009 LPP was granted US Patent #7,482,607, "Method and apparatus for producing X-rays, ion beams and nuclear fusion energy," with international patents filed, in support of our Focus Fusion technology. LPP has met with and expects NJs Board of Public Utilities and Department of Environmental Protection to declare that Focus Fusion is an Approved Alternative Technology for Class I Renewable Energy. Engineering estimates project the cost of a 5 MW generator at around $300,000, with minimal maintenance costs and hydrogen-boron fuel requirements of only a kilogram per megawatt-year. Therefore, installation costs will be about $60/kW, and generation costs are estimated at about two tenths of a cent per kWh, many times cheaper than current costs.

Intellectual Ventures (IV) is a global provider in the business of invention. IV collaborates with leading inventors, partners with pioneering companies, and invests both expertise and capital in the process of invention. IV's mission is to energize and streamline an invention economy that will drive innovation around the world.

Octillion Corp., together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a technology incubator focused on the identification, acquisition, development, and commercialization of alternative and renewable energy technologies. Through established relationships with universities, research institutions, government agencies and start-up companies, the company strive to identify technologies and business opportunities on an edge of innovation that have the potential of serving and unmet market needs. nOnce a technology has been identified, the company fund the research and development activities relating to the technology with the intention of ultimately, if warranted, licensing, commercializing and marketing the subject technology, either through internal resources, collaborative agreements or otherwise. Unique to the company's business model is the use of established research infrastructure owned by the various organizations the company deal with, saving us capital which would otherwise be required for such things as land and building acquisition, equipment and furniture purchases, and other incidental start up costs. As a result, the company are able to conduct research in development. nnAmong the company's current research and development activities is the development of a patent-pending technology that could adapt existing home and office glass windows into ones capable of generating electricity from solar energy without losing transparency or requiring major changes in manufacturing infrastructure. The company are also developing a system to harness the kinetic energy of vehicles in motion as part of a broader effort to enhance the sustainability and energy efficiency of transportation infrastructures and systems.
