"One of, I think, the most important infrastructure projects that we need
is a whole new electricity grid .
Because if we're going to be serious about renewable energy, I want to
be able to get wind power from North Dakota to population centers, like
Chicago. And we're going to have to have a smart
grid if we want to use plug-in hybrids then
we want to be able to have ordinary consumers sell back the electricity
that's generated from those car batteries, back into the grid. That can
create 5 million new jobs ,
just in new energy."

There is a new
world wide web emerging right before our
eyes.
It is a global energy
network and, like the internet, it will change our culture, society and
how we do business. More importantly, it will alter how we use, transform
and exchange energy.
Enough solar energy
falls on the surface of the earth every 40
minutes to meet 100 percent of the entire
world's energy needs for a full year.
There is no energy
supply
problem, there is an energy distribution
problem -- and the emerging solution is a new world
wide web of electricity .
