Clean energy growing strong, according to A2 venture capital fund

Research done by Ann Arbor-based Cleantech Venture Network shows record investment into clean energy technologies in the first three months of 2007.

Excerpts:

Last year, venture capitalists spent about $2.4 billion to fund projects in the alternative energy sector, compared with $917 billion in 2005, which some experts say can be attributed to greater interest in biofuels production.

Some of those companies include Adaptive Materials Inc of Ann Arbor, Advanced Resource Recovery LLC in Inkster, Compact Power Inc. of Troy and Danotek Motion Technologies in Ann Arbor.
