Hi Nol,

Thanks for taking the time to comment on the article. The decision to not include "fraunhofer" in the title had everything to do with space and in no way was it meant to belittle your group's contribution to the report. As you must have seen, we did include both Fraunhofer and Nth Power in the body of the article. That said, in the future I'll try to do my best to get everyone's name in the title when it seems appropriate. Best, Justin

This is all very interesting stuff, I know that going green is a big issue these days especially among building supplies and things of that nature and I am really excited to see how things turn out in the next year.

Hi Justin,

Thanks for covering us in the blog… would you consider adding Fraunhofer to the title of your article next time, after all we are technologists behind the technology content of the report. Here’s a little more about us: http://www.fraunhofer-cse.org/about.htm

Thanks!

Nol

Hi Justin
Interesting this, we run a huge web directory in UK for building materials and often get so called revolutionary building materials which dont live up to expectations. However I did come across the latest LED technology, which clusters 100′s of LEDs into one light ‘bulb’ this struck me as the only product I’d come across this year of any use. The thing about green products that should always be taken into account is the life cycle, does it take large quantities of energy, precious resources to make, can it be recycled and how much energy does it actually really save, this one I thought stacked up, here is a link to it: http://www.bpindex.co.uk/supplier/10287
