The Web-based application will allow the company to electronically accept offers from utilities and other electricity suppliers that may be selling power in the region. "OG&E has always purchased power from other suppliers to help meet our customer's demand or to take advantage of low-cost power that may be available," said company spokesman Brian Alford. "This new method will simplify the process for those who seek to sell power to the company." Alford said the application also opens up the process to anyone interested in how OG&E conducts business on behalf of its customers. The website describes specific criteria for potential sellers, including financial stability, ability to meet minimum quantity and reliability standards, and performance history. OGE Energy (NYSE:OGE) is the parent company of Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company (OG&E), a regulated electric utility serving approximately 733,000 customers in a service territory spanning 30,000 square miles in Oklahoma and western Arkansas, and of Enogex Inc., a natural gas pipeline business with principal operations in Oklahoma and Arkansas.

New fuel cell concept brings biological design to better electricity generation
MADISON - Fuel cells have long been viewed as a promising power source. But most fuel cells are too expensive, inefficient, or both. In a new approach, inspired by biology, a team has designed a fuel cell using cheaper materials and an organic compound that shuttles electrons and protons.
Fuel cells have long been viewed as a promising power source. These devices, invented in the 1830s, generate electricity directly from chemicals, such as hydrogen and oxygen, and produce only water vapor as emissions. But most fuel cells are too expensive, inefficient, or both.
