Sweetmyx isn't the only soda ingredient making headlines. Stevia has been a popular sugar substitute in recent years, and Coke's new stevia- and sugar-sweetened Coca-Cola Life has performed well in test markets in Chile and Argentina. Last month, Coke said it would begin distributing the beverage in other, unspecified markets.

YAVNE, Israel, April 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
?
G. Willi-Food International Ltd. (WILC) ("Willi-Food"), a global company that specializes in the development, marketing and international distribution of kosher foods, today announced its entrance in to the soft drinks market and its launch in Israel of the "Green Cola" brand, a kosher carbonated soft drink naturally sweetened by stevia plants.
Green Cola has been marketed by EPAP S.A, a private Greek company, since 2012, and it is positioned as a specialized product in the diet soft drink market. Green Cola is EPAP S.A's leading brand product and is currently sold in Greece, Cyprus and Australia. The diet soft drink contains several nutritional benefits compared to competing soft drinks in the market. It is naturally sweetened from the stevia plant extracts, and does not contain any sugar. Also, the caffeine in Green Cola is derived from a natural source, green coffee beans, and there are no perservatives in Green Cola. A can of Green Cola contains two calories and does not contain aspartame or any other artifical sweetner.
Mr. Zwi Williger, Chairman of Willi-Food commented, "In order to compete with Coca-Cola, Pepsi Cola and RC Cola, much effort is needed to enter into the crowded market, and so we have decided to pursue a product not currently available in Israel. In the beginning, we considered developing a private brand and through our search we uncovered this new innovative brand. We believe that stevia is a leading trend in the food product industry and will be an international hit in the near future. Stevia, as a natural sweetener, has emerged as a very popular sugar alternative in the food product industry. With the launch of Green Cola, we are providing the consumer an innovative new product that emphasizes our direction to promote healthy, nutritional products that do not compromise our desire to maintain a quality of taste."

ARGENTINA: Coca-Cola Co confirms stevia Coca-Cola launch

The Coca-Cola Co has confirmed to just-drinks the launch of mid-calorie Coca-Cola Life in Argentina, the latest move in a burgeoning sweetener race with rival PepsiCo.
Coca-Cola Life is sweetened with stevia and sugar and contains 64 calories per 12oz serving, a Coca-Cola spokesperson said today (27 June). Coca-Cola did not respond to a question asking if Coca-Cola Life is only for the Argentinian market.
The launch follows comments from PepsiCo head Indra Nooyi, who in February said the company is developing new sweeteners and flavourings that could “alter the trajectory of the cola business”. Last month, she said carbonated soft drinks may have just three years to win back US consumers before they abandon the category.
CSD sales are falling in developed markets such as the US and companies are experimenting with sweeteners to try to lower calories without changing taste. In March, Coca-Cola announced a stevia-sweetened Sprite for the UK, and last year PepsiCo unveiled Pepsi Next.
Stevia Corp expects to produce a 2014 spring harvest in excess of 2,000 tons,
Must read and see A spokesperson for the Company provided further insight on RNAi, stating this is a process by which genes may be selectively blocked using a natural mechanism the body normally uses to protect against viruses. The Nobel Prize in Medicine was awarded to Fire and Mello in 2006 for making this discovery. Benitec has been granted international patents on RNAi which have been licensed to Regen for one specific gene, indolamine 2,3 deoxygenase (IDO), which is associated with cancer's ability to suppress the immune system.
Regen Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Thomas Ichim together with Professor Weiping Min at the University of Western Ontario have successfully treated breast cancer (1) and melanoma (2) in animals using this approach.

we believe that the Solar3D Cell can be produced using high-speed manufacturing processes in existing facilities that will replicate the harmony of the elements. By combining low cost manufacturing and high conversion efficiency, we hope to make solar power affordable for a variety of applications.”
”It is very exciting to enter the final phase of the fabrication of third third generation prototype of our powerful new solar cell,” said Jim Nelson, CEO of Solar3D. “This effort has taken more time than our previous two prototypes because we are combining all the research and experimentation that we have utilized so far to create the best possible version of our technology. This final testing phase will assure that each element of the cell will be optimized to produce the maximum power.”
"WE HAVE a big job 600 panels and a building requires zoning changes Tom said in the interview

QUOTE "company executives had reported that the certification would help open newer doors, with customers which were earlier not open to do business with the firm due to lack of quality certifications"
New York, NY – (NISMAGAZINE) – 03/13/2014 –UQM Technologies Inc (NYSEMKT:UQM) stock after posting new record 52 week high price post its announcement of being awarded the coveted high quality bench mark ISO/TS 16949 certification for its manufacturing process related to the automotive sector end products, recorded a big 6.9 percent dip in its market valuation during trading on 13th March. At the time of announcement, company executives had reported that the certification would help open newer doors, with customers which were earlier not open to do business with the firm due to lack of quality certifications, would be fair game now.

NEWS!!!!R8 e-tron to have 279-mile range
Audi board member for technical development, Ulrich Hackenberg, said the R8 e-tron will eventually go into production as a build to order model.
It seems Audi is determined to put the R8 e-tron in production but they haven't provided a timetable as to when this will happen and whether it will be based on the outgoing model or the second generation due to come out next year.
We do know that at this point the car's range has increased from the previous rather mediocre 134 miles (215 km) of the prototype to a more decent 279 miles (449 km). The more than double range was obtained thanks to a "progress in battery technology" as well as through a "far more space efficient" packaging of the batteries.
Despite February's rumor about a last-minute delay, the second generation of the Q7 is on track for a 2014 launch. The all-new A8 will also be introduced later this year and will feature "piloted driving" technology allowing the vehicle to drive itself in "lower stop-go driving situations."
Ulrich Hackenberg also disclosed the company's plans for a frugal TT Ultra which will be powered by a 4-cylinder, 2.0-liter TDI engine enabling the model to have CO2 emissions of only 110 g/km. In addition, the Ingolstadt-based automaker is also thinking about "further TT derivatives" beyond a "possible" Shooting Brake.

Quote "This next generation solar cell will be dramatically more efficient, resulting in a lower cost per watt that will make solar power affordable for the world."
SLTD in final stages Todays news indicated they're getting ready for commercialization...
But Nelson claims that entry of solar into mainstream is just beginning -- and that Solar3D will be a big part of it.
"We have long discussed the fact that it is economics -- not talk -- that will drive the growth of the solar market," he said. "There are many great things happening in the technology of solar systems -- including the Solar3D Cell -- that are reducing the cost of solar power to the end users. The key to all of the advances is the amount of power generated by the solar cell. We believe that as we push toward commercialization, the Solar3D Cell will be a key driver in making solar power competitive with the low cost alternatives -- increasing the growth of the market many fold."
Nelson concluded, "This is the ultimate mission of Solar3D -- to provide affordable solar power to the world. We believe that the values that we espouse as a team at SUNworks, as well as the further development of the proprietary Solar3D Cell, will allow us to accomplish our mission."
Sltd is soon in changing the game in the solar industry... We believe that as we push toward commercialization, the Solar3D Cell will be a key driver in making solar power competitive with the low cost alternatives -- increasing the growth of the market many fold."
IMHO we could see A 300% increase from the current price and a pullback after if there is more positive news released soon we could be looking easily 0ver 500% increase
here's why I like sltd
"We have said before that we expect SUNworks to grow dramatically through organic growth alone," he continued. "Add to that an active plan to seek additional acquisitions and we expect to build one of the fastest growing and most profitable companies in the solar systems market."
took a position today in sltd heard of the 300% jan sales news about testing phase and solar market just heating up 2014 year of renewable energy stocks
