Abstract
In this chapter attention is drawn to the fact that in fields other than power production, for example, in the field of aerospace engineering, very fast and impressive transitions have occurred. These developments are briefly described to show that the application of aerospace engineering methods may stimulate revolutionary renewable power production methods.
