Locally owned and independent for more than 50 years.
The present global annual demand for primary energy arrives as solar energy in the deserts alone within 5.7 hours of sunshine.
The Southwestern US has a solar resource that is better than the oil fields of the Middle East.
A solar power plant by the size of Los Angeles can supply the entire electricity for the entire US.
Stating that renewable energy might be too costly is cynical in the face of the victims of climate change and ignoring the real costs of dirty coal and subsidized nuclear.
It is mind-boggling that administration wants to thwart the best energy resource we have instead of supporting it with everything we have.
