Here's an interesting breakthrough report: an Israeli group claims to have developed a new solar power technology that would make electricity 100X cheaper than it is with current best efficiencies. They say they plan to commercialize this in 2009.
If true, and scalable in production quantities, this could be allow solar to be a major contributor in the overall energy scheme. (Today there are a few large commercial operations, but mostly it is residential or localized.)
We're going to need major technological breakthroughs like this to make any significant changes in energy production patterns.
Also, there is a very nice report about a proposed new energy plan on the same blog. This guy has done some serious homework! I appreciate how well cited the numbers are.
As Christian men and leaders, we need to be thinking clearly about these issues.
