To Most people, the Energy picture is way too FUZZY !!
Good, Better, BEST….
TODAY’s Power Production….. GOOD
TODAY’S “Hope For The Future”. . . . . BETTER
“The Future”. . . . . IS NOW!!.....BEST!

Renewable Energy Increase = 1% in just 24 months. NATION’S ENEGERY
22% INCREASE In Biomass & Wind Energy RENEWABLE ENERGY
Unlike fossil fuels, which are exhaustible, renewable energy sources regenerate and can be sustained indefinitely. The five renewable sources used most often are Biomass (wood & wood waste, municipal solid waste, landfill gas & biogas, biodiesel) Water (hydropower) Geothermal (lava, volcano, geysers) Wind Solar -U.S. Energy Information Administration
The use of renewable energy is not new . More than 150 years ago , wood, which is one form of biomass, supplied up to 90% of our energy needs. As the use of coal, petroleum, and natural gas expanded , the United States became less reliant on wood as an energy source. Today , we are looking again at renewable sources to find new ways to use them to help meet our energy needs. In 2010, consumption of renewable sources in the United States totaled about 8 quadrillion Btu — or about 8% of all energy used nationally. About 10% of U.S. electricity was generated from renewable sources. Over half of renewable energy goes to producing electricity. The next largest use of renewable energy is biomass (wood and waste) for the production of heat and steam for industrial purposes and for space heating , mostly in homes . When renewable energy sources are used, the demand for fossil fuels is reduced. -U.S. Energy Information Administration
Renewable energy has generally been more expensive to produce and use than fossil fuels. Renewable resources are often located in remote areas, and it is expensive to build power lines to the cities where the electricity they produce is needed . The use of renewable sources is also limited by the fact that they are not always available — cloudy days reduce solar power; calm days reduce wind power; and droughts reduce the water available for hydropower. - U.S. Energy Information Administration

The production and use of renewable fuels has grown more quickly in recent years as a result of higher prices for oil and natural gas. A number of State and Federal Government incentives, including the Energy Policy Acts of 2002 and 2005, have been legislated. The use of renewable fuels is expected to continue to grow over the next 30 years. Although, EIA projects that we will still rely on non-renewable fuels to meet most of our energy needs. - U.S. Energy Information Administration
