Or he at least seems to be leaning in that direction.  Now that President Obama is in office, there will likely be swift action on economic stimulus legislation.

Last week, the House Appropriations Committee came out with their proposed version of the stimulus legislation.  This unprecedented legilsation aims to kick start the economy, notably by providing targeted investments in clean energy, science, and technology.

AEB sees low energy electron beams as a key component of the green factory of the future by making sustainable manufacturing possible and profitable.  There are many areas that we think we can, with the help of this legislation, assist in the development of a green economy.  In the near term, the proposed funding for industrial energy efficiency will encourage the adoption of clean, efficient, and innovative industrial processing techniques.  Furthermore, there is significant funding for cutting edge energy, science, and technology university research that should drive the development of new electron beam applications.
