I need a source of quality solar products for my business. So far all I see is blowing grammer and no product. Jim; Ethanol is a good idea but it takes a lot of fresh water to distill ethanol and we are fast running out of it. To do ethanol we need to use desalinators to get the water. This needs to be done soon as we can. These thin film companies run off about $1 per watt but I never see any for wholesale. I need a source of quality solar products for my business.

The energy crisis is directly linked to our economy. Foreclosures are on the rise as well as unemployment. With all the technology available it is incredible to believe we have not come together as a nation to devise a plan. We have become so dependant on foreign oil that we have neglected to fully utilize such natural sources of energy such wind power & solar power. Along with modern technology such as plug in cars, hybrid cars, v2g technology ,and regenerative braking, technology we still seem to be floundering as a nation as to devising the best plan utilize all that is available to us and lift ourselves out of this mess we are in.

Solar,Nuclear,Oil drilling , Wind take too long to develop. Plant some Industrial Hemp and 6months later you get 1000 gals from one acre. 5% of unusable farmland would meet our transport needs. Plus the infrastructure is here right now. No retooling of cars just a $300-500 dollar part. In World War 2 we converted in 6months. The U.S. has plenty of unusable farmland(900milacres) We just need someone with vision. More here. http://peswiki.com/index.php/Review:Alcohol_can_be_a_Gas Ethanol is the answer.
