The Hybrid is a platform from which the general public will realize first-hand knowledge of the capabilities of solar power, wind power and other hybrid technological advancements. The Hybrid uses power generated by two ten-foot-tall wind turbines and a photovoltaic solar array covering the awning on the top deck. That power is converted and stored in battery banks that then power the navigation tools, lighting and other electronics on board the vessel. Excess power is stored in the main propulsion battery banks. (PRWeb Dec 17, 2008)

For Gadaldi - a Bergamo native - the invitation to participate meant a chance to officially honor his lifelong commitment to the Slow Food ideals - ideals he's espoused at Antica Trattoria since its inception 10 years ago. "Sustainability, community, taste, and health are most important values to me and I strive to keep true to my origin," said Gadaldi. (PRWeb Nov 17, 2006)
