Terrajoule
"Terrajoule was founded in 2009 to resolve the fundamental barrier to the widespread adoption of
solar power as the most practical and economic source of new electricity generation for the 21st
century. ...Who expected that reciprocating steam piston engines would play a major
role in 21st century energy growth?"
Kimmel Steam Power
"This website is about all of the latest work on steam power in the last 75 years. Modern steam power is a little known or understood subject.
In contrast to almost all other steam information on the internet, this information is scientifically correct. Therefore it will not offer Tesla turbines,
free energy from burning water, or any of the many types of goofy rotary engines that the fertile human mind has invented...."

21st Century Steam - The 5AT Project
"The 5AT is a totally new steam locomotive design, incorporating the latest proven steam locomotive technology, for hauling main line steam charter and railcruise trains. With a 70% increase in thermal efficiency over "classic" steam, and almost 3500 horsepower available at the cylinders (more than a "Deltic"), its perfomance will amply demonstrate what could have been achieved had steam locomotive development been fully exploited in the 20th Century...."
