Utility Strategies for Renewable Energy
A New, Essential Report from
Thinking Energy
Available July 15, 2005
Is ‘global warming’ real?
Does ‘renewable energy’ work?
A recent study by Yale University shows that
92% of Americans are worried about
dependence on foreign oil and
that 93% of the American public
wants the government
to support new energy technologies.
How should utilities respond to
this trend, cost-effectively and efficiently?
Utilities
worldwide are under pressure to ‘clean up their act’ and many have gone to
great lengths to do so. Utilities have boosted their use of gas and
temporarily turned their back on coal. A number of utilities have plunged
into the confusing world of renewable energy. But they’ve found that most
renewable power isn’t ‘ready for prime time.’ With the possible exception
of wind power – which has its own spectrum of issues – renewables are
technologically backward, uneconomic, or plain impractical. Right now, the
industry stands on a dangerous edge: should it embrace renewable
technologies, or fight for coal, nuclear and other proven and cheap
options?
Earth, Water, Fire & Air: Utility Strategies
for Renewable Energy can help you weigh the options available
and help you develop a strategy that fits your needs as a responsible and
responsive business. It’s by Thinking Energy, publishers of the
best-selling reports Power Market
Risk, Back To Coal and Ontario’s Energy Crunch.
This
brand-new report assesses:
• Still the world’s Number One renewable energy source, what’s the future
for hydro?
• It may be the most popular choice, but can we surmount wind power’s poor
capacity utilization and dispatchability problems?
• Biomass is popular with the public. But is it economic? Is it really
carbon dioxide neutral?
• Is the future bright for solar?
• Why are tidal and geothermal stymied from the start?
• What are realistic levels for renewables’ share of the utility mix?
