Solar-Thermal Power Plant Study
Dear Members,
Did you know that the current administration proposed up to 250 new "clean" coal power plants which not only have same or more greenhouse emissions like conventional coal power plants but also contaminate 23% more water.
In this paper I explore the alternative option of solar-thermal power plant for the southwest region, the fastest growing region in demand for electricity in the U.S.
What can you do to support real clean electricity?
Buy your electricity from alternative energy supplier who supply electricity from Hydro, wind or solar energy.
In NY ConEdSolutions supply 75%Hydro and 25%Wind for a rate that is only 10% higher than dirty coal/nuclear electricity you currently buy from your utility.
Orange and Rockland currently offer 7% discount over their rate for the first two months before the new supply rates will kick in under their "poweswitch" program.
