Scholarship To Help UK Student Commercialize Renewable Energy Idea.

The Daily Telegraph (UK) (6/6, Tyler) reports Alistair Shepherd, a graduate student in aeronautics and astronautics at the University of Southampton in the UK, won a scholarship in which "he will spend six months with an elite group of international students in the US learning how to turn his renewable energy idea into a commercial reality." Shepherd designed a device that "uses the motion of ships to generate electricity in a device that is inside the ship itself." With the funding from the SETsquared partnership, "Shepherd will be tutored in the US by experts from Harvard Business School, MIT and the University of North Carolina and spend up to three months on an internship at an emerging company in the same field."
