Will Distributed Solar Drive Utilities into Bankruptcy?

We do not address the residential side of power however if the price to install does come down we might in the future. Why pay higher prices now if you know the price of install will come down. Makes no sense.
Commercial is another matter. A very big matter.
As this question is extremely important we will address the public ECO ASPECTS. BACT will not do with regard to retrofit, however much you are SOLD on the idea. If you are not reworking old energy designs with LAER standards, you are simply kicking the can down a very short road. When you look at Utility Value WATCH OUT FOR poor clean up designs which might be approved very recently. Those retrofit expenses do NOT produce Green Sustainable Eco Standards in our view. NOT BY A LONG SHOT.
The Power Sector is a vital part of our work and our detailed answers are private and very much a part of our research reports which are private user access only. There is a great deal here that has been overlooked. Current Case in point, showing recently approved rework addressed in private reporting details.

Start in your garage, backyard, greenhouse, & go ask for the money.
Nature Is Up For A Vote

Looks like it was voted down in the new House with the objective to take away all EPA ability to regulate green house gases. So much for BACT, much less LAER. Lowest Achievable Emissions Rate.
This means we will not be looking to acquire any old energy designs any time soon. FORGET IT. Those old energy plants will just keep on running as they always have. At least until a Veto or the Senate goes to bat. NO WAY YOU BASE A BUSINESS MODEL ON THIS POLITICAL FOOTBALL. If people don’t care where their power and fuel comes from, the low cost provider WINS.
FAR BETTER TO BUILD NEW NOW with LAER & the objective of being the low cost Green provider.
SOME IN THIS COUNTRY MAY START TO CARE.

Price Swing is directly related to regional supply and demand

The US has an Over Supply of oil at present. The rest of the world’s market is tighter, hence the supply and demand, PRICE SHIFT.
This may get wider with TIME as WE START TO INCREASE both BTL and GTL, US Domestic, see…

As for SOUR and SWEET. Guess which refinery might get CLOSED over time? Which one gets FINED if it isn’t updated to CLEAN that SOUR.
Didn’t someone get HIT with a $700M upgrade settlement just the other day. Seems I read that somewhere. Numbers like that may not matter to Big Cap. When you’re a little independent those kind of numbers can make you a little less likely to put up with the SMELL. If you give TWO CENTS worth of attention to CLEAN GREEN SOLUTIONS you might begin to learn the difference in the two products.
I myself prefer this…
Natural Gas does play a part in this as it MIGHT play a part in GTL, or Power to reduce production costs associated with BTL or GTL.
By the way. Which country has the MOST GOLD?
Is it CHINA?
Is it Japan?
Who guessed Gold & Silver would go up as the price of the product went down here in the US, while at the same time going up everywhere else?
Who ever you are, IT would seem you just WON the short term prize.
The question becomes this? What does this do to the currency plays. It’s still a few WILD moves OUT as YET. Can you see IT? It is coming.
Biofuels should replace M.E. Imports
Posted by 2011wd in 2011 Power Report, Algae, BTL, Eco Trust Land Acq., Energy Conservation is JOB 1, Energy Policy, Green Cars, Green Cities, Green Design, Green Edu., Green Jobs, Green Lending, Green Sustainable Future, green transportation, GTL, integrate CAD/BIM/GIS, Progressive Leadership on January 31, 2011
CANADA 1,975
MEXICO 1,229
VENEZUELA 884
BRAZIL 188 This is an ideal working partner source country.
COLOMBIA 489
RUSSIA 553
ALGERIA 379
Advanced Biofuels should be ramped up to replace M.E. Imports as conservation also improves. BTL, or GTL, the future numbers must exceed current projected increases. This sustainable fuels effort would utilize feedstocks that are not food crop oriented. These fuels would support sustainable forest objectives. These biofuels should be in the black on their own merit without subsidies. These biofuels feedstocks would be no till & organic. This is only possible as permaculture integration becomes the norm.
Most have simply missed this important aspect.
This is a long term effort that will require a national scope as it is proven on a regional level. Sustainable Distribution models will begin to produce meaningful advantages as they are designed and developed.
Important algae research should be supported and valued.
Interesting observations from a VC perspective…
Here is HOPE!

This is the sustainable path to follow. It should be expanded here at home 100 fold.
