TWST: And you're covering energy technology. How broad a net do you cast? Ms. Callahan: Energy technology is a sector defined by various alternatives to traditional energy applications and technologies. Most of these technologies are still in a fairly embryonic state, so there are many companies pursuing a wide variety of applications. Some of the verticals within energy technology include power generation technologies (base load, uninterruptible power supply, known as 'UPS' or 'back-up' power, energy storage, power electronics), clean energy (renewable and pollution/emission controls), energy intelligence (improving information flow) and almost anything else that focuses on providing cleaner, more efficient power.
