Katie if your looking for the energy solution see http://www.AlphaOmegaProject.com I’m an Advance Planning Engineer. It’s not hard to efficiently blend 100% Clean Energy into our life style.
The large Megawatt wind turbines are helpful. Alpha Omega’s plan is using the current Highway System. It produces energy were its needed saving the losses of transmission lines. It will also give everyone 20% better mpg including truckers. Even electric cars will drive 20% farther on a charge.
Alpha Omega concept is to “make life better, doing more with what we have, by all working together”.

[...] January 18, 2010 · Filed under Uncategorized · Tagged utility, California Happy Watts - Every week it seems like California’s utilities announce a new clean power contract — solar PV, solar thermal, geothermal, wind power, even space solar. But according to a report from researchers at Black & Veatch, California utilities won’t be able to meet the state renewable portfolio standard, or RPS, which demands that 20 percent of their electricity comes from clean power by 2010 — at least in terms of actual electrons delivered. via Earth2Tech>> [...]

Agreed, but there is another side to the issue of making green energy.

If every small business would could reduce their energy footprint by say 15% – nothing drastic – turn off unused appliances – replace lights with efficient lights – change temperatures 15% (up or down) according to the season.

If California produced say 30% clean power a short miss, the 15% percentage reduction would make this 30% an actual 35.294% of the new amounts required to service the market.

My point is, consumers and small businesses, please join in and make the savings needed to play your part.

If you need some help, start with this posting on energy awareness.

And while I am at it, please avoid the scams being promoted – google “energy saving scams” and read what open4energy has posted. It is real information. The search results have been hijacked, and the offenders are using adSense to distribute their marketing in every corner you look. From DIY solar panels to windmills to serious power facttor correction misinformation.

Projects have been lined up for wind farm expansions for the past 3 years. When these start coming online in 2010, they will help California get back on track for meeting 25% renewable energy generation by 2025. This is expected to increase employment in the sector by an average growth rate of 15% per year each0 year over the next decade.
