2. Leadership Supports Renewable Energy
“…we will invest $15 billion a year to develop technologies like wind power and solar power; advanced biofuels….”
-President Obama /24/09
"By making greater use of alternative and renewable energy, Army initiatives will bring energy savings
and security to the
Army, reducing the
risk of power
disruption."
-Pete Geren
Secretary of the Army
Obama Energy Plan as it relates to renewables and solar:
-As part of a larger plan for a diversified, clean energy future, Barack has proposed doubling research funding for clean energy projects such as solar power while requiring that 25% of electricity consumed in the U.S. be derived from clean, sustainable energy sources by 2025.
-Ensure 10 percent of Our Electricity Comes from Renewable Sources by 2012, and 25 percent by 2025.
-Help create five million new jobs by strategically investing $150 billion over the next ten years to catalyze private efforts to build a clean energy future.
“By investing in groundbreaking research, making homes and businesses more energy efficient and deploying solar, wind, biomass and other clean energy, this budget will help ensure that America once again leads the world in confronting our global economic, energy and climate challenges."
-Steven Chu, Secretary of Energy 2
