The Long View on New Energy
Abstract:
Roger Duncan is one of the visionaries. He pushed for New Energy, Energy Efficiency and programs to grow them from the time in 1998 when he joined Austin Energy, one of the biggest U.S. municipal utilities.
In 2005, BusinessWeek put Duncan in the company of Tony Blair and Arnold Schwarzenegger as a top leader of the decade in the fight against global climate change.
He says solar energy will soon achieve grid parity and he expects advances based on nanotechnology to sooner or later make solar energy "too cheap to meter."
