IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 18, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- "The meteoric rise in the price of oil should simultaneously create both need and acceptance for alternative fuels," stated SmallCap Sentinel analyst D.R. Clark. "It's been obvious for years that the number one motivator for alternative fuel development such as that offered by methanol fuel producer VIASPACE, Inc. (OTCBB:VSPC) is a cost-prohibitive oil price that makes alternative fuels economically viable and necessary. With strong support for the notion that oil is nearing peak production, meaning the most oil that can be produced is being produced, and that it's simultaneously clear that consumption and need are going to increase dramatically in India and China, it's a short leap of faith to think that the economics of oil makes alternative fuel development imperative."
The report "Better Mousetrap Files" has been made available at www.SmallCapSentinel.com and will address the rise of alternative fuel equities including Plug Power Inc. (Nasdaq:PLUG), FuelCell Energy Inc. (Nasdaq:FCEL), Quantum Fuel Systems (Nasdaq:QTWW) and VIASPACE, Inc.
"Whether it's oil for cars and trucks or energy for phones and laptops, the rising oil price should open the door wide for alternative fuel technologies," Clark added.
VIASPACE subsidiary Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Corporation produces disposable methanol fuel cartridges that provide the liquid energy source for fuel cells that produce electricity for portable electronic devices such as notebook computers and mobile phones.
