The company envisions sensors that detect wasted motor motion, power surges, electrical loss, overheating and unnecessary lighting - leading to vast improvements in efficiency, perhaps saving half a billion tons of carbon emissions in Britain alone each year. "Energy sensors are going to be a massive part of our future," says Crosier. Perhaps Eaton would like to buy some...

Over the past three weeks Chen has shored up support among members of his Democratic Progressive Party (DPP); last Friday, DPP lawmakers thwarted - for the third time - a recall motion that would have triggered a national referendum on Chen's ouster...
