Wishful Thinking
*Before adding PV, wind, or solar thermal to your residential or commercial structure, the first step is to analyze this structure's energy consumption through a professional energy audit. I'd like to see some public education on the importance of an energy audit for any structure. Remember Smokey the Bear's forest fire shtick drilled into our heads over the last few decades? How about something like, "Henry the House" desperately wanting to know how much energy he consumes and wastes throughout the day?
*With over 300 sunny days a year on the Front Range is it too much to ask for solar panels on every residential and commercial unit?
*I'm wishin' for a concentrated solar power (CSP) plant right here in southwestern Colorado.
*How about plug-in electric cars that go more than 50 miles on a charge with PV and wind powered recharging stations?
*Dreamin' of utilities that heavily promote and provide incentives for localized renewable energy production and conservation to help with the increasing demand for electricity.
New invention by ExRo Technologies which works well with the sporadic nature of wind and allows the generator to run more efficiently. Lets hope this gives a big boost to the wind turbine industry.
