Doing The Math On Climate Change With Bill McKibben Adds Up To “We Are So Screwed” Let's start calling fossil fuel "The Beast" . Fossil fuel company CEOs are like kings without kingdoms. "It comes up from the bottomless pits" -( mines, wells, fracking). It burns in its own destruction - combustion. It is a "red" beast now because it used to be green, but now the green (algae) is gone leaving us to see red. "It was' (algae), 'is not' (no longer algae), "yet is" (fossil fuels)....all described in Revelation, New King James version, chap 17,18 |

Tucson Electric signs solar + storage PPA for 'less than 4.5¢/kWh' Quite exciting! But Four Corners area should consider Concentrating Solar Power in its portfolio as it is also dispatchable, but can be designed for peak periods or baseline power as well! |
The Fixer OMG! So funny and appropriate to call it Funny or Die! AND even more applicable as electricity is a clean power if made by clean renewable energy like wind, sun, geothermal, and hydro. |

Sandia National Laboratories increasing research in microgrid technology Albuquerque Business First - microgrids to more easily connect and disconnect to a larger grid and circulate power. That's particularly important for solar and wind resources, which often don't have anywhere to deliver energy if there is a larger grid issue. That can lead to safety risks. |
PNM loses support in rate case I was there June 29, behind those heavy wooden doors and experienced all the excitement! |
