Intel Gets Serious With Solar-powered CPU Tech 74
angry tapir writes "Intel's experimental solar-powered processor may have started off as a fun project, but the chip maker is now looking to extend the technology to hardware such as graphics processors, memory and floating point units. Intel last year showed the low-power processor — charged only by the light from a reading lamp — running Windows and Linux PCs. Intel is expected to share further details about the processor, which is code-named Claremont, at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco. The company is also expected to reveal information about efforts to integrate wireless capabilities into Atom chips for mobile devices."

In regards to your second statement regarding noise pollution, I believe AC/DC found an alternative to this issue, they formulated in the 1970's that Rock And Roll was not Noise Pollution and was sustainable indefinitely (Aint gonna die.) :)
