As to the larger goal, currently about 17% of the Navy and Marine Corps energy consumption comes from alternative sources. The other three goals set out by Secretary Mabus are: The Navy and Marine Corps will change the way they award contracts. We do not have operational independence and we are tied to a vulnerable logistics tail.

Well-to-Propeller GHG emissions results for marine alternative fuels. While renewable energy, particularly solar and wind, may have some potential to mitigate carbon emissions, this is not seen as a viable large-scale alternative for commercial shipping. Source: DNV GL. Click to enlarge.

By cutting red tape and avoiding costs for construction and electrical work, combined with free solar energy, Beam Global says its EV ARC systems can offer customers a lower total cost of ownership compared to grid-tied charging stations. I like Beam much better—a beam of energy, the structural beam.

There’s a second location in Corte Madera in Marin County. The freeway jaunt was to San Rafael, in Marin County, which meant open freeways, bridge crossings and a short test loop through town, where I showed off the car’s rocket acceleration to my son. High tech treats include the absence of a start button.

A continuing sharp decline in technology costs—particularly in solar but also in wind—meant that every dollar invested in renewable energy bought significantly more generating capacity in 2014.

One day soon, a platform 50 times as large may float in the deep waters of the North Sea, buoying up a massive wind turbine to harvest the steady, strong breezes there. About an hour’s ride up the coast, full-scale 3,000-tonne behemoths already float in Aberdeen Bay, capturing enough wind energy to electrify nearly 35,000 Scottish households.

Its like having a second fuel tank that you always use first -- only you fill up at home, from a regular outlet, at an equivalent cost of under $1/gallon. Scientist have confirmed that unlike gasoline cars, plug-ins will get cleaner as they get older -- because our power grid is getting cleaner. You dont have to plug it in.

These zoning decisions blow in whatever direction the development winds are gusting in the city at the moment and there is no consistency, logic or equity in the decisions made. I went and spoke to their City Council and said “For $50,000 a house I’ll put in solar AND battery systems and take you off the grid. Don’t you want to share?

Despite this, a 2003 EPRI study , assuming only $2/gallon gas , zero buying incentives, and a PHEV premium of $3-$5,000 more than standard hybrids, shows that the total lifetime cost of ownership for a PHEV will be lower than that of any other vehicle type -- so the payback will be there.

Plastic Toothbrushes take over 400 years to decompose, even then they break down into micro plastics and can fill the stomachs of marine life. IMPLEMENTATION OF HIGHLY PROTECTED MARINE AREAS (HPMAS). We want to see the implementation of HPMAs to fully protect marine species from human disruption and to allow ecosystems to recover.
