"A Light in India"- NY Times;
A very interesting story: A small company's innovative system is
turning rice husks into electricity and illuminating India's poorest
state.  It has since raised $1.75 million in investment financing

Most Interestingly, the company first tried organic solar cells,
biofuels etc, but failed!
Sometimes innovation doesn't have to be high tech :) Frugal Innovation
