American Wind and Wildlife Institute Names Judd Howell Director of Research Howell charged with spearheading AWWI’s research initiatives
American Wind and Wildlife Institute Names Judd Howell Director of Research Howell charged with spearheading AWWI’s research initiatives
Washington, DC – The American Wind and Wildlife Institute (AWWI), a national organization committed to facilitating timely and responsible development of wind energy and the protection of wildlife and wildlife habitat, has announced the selection of Judd Howell as its Director of Research and Evaluation.
"Judd brings the broad, disciplined approach to wildlife research that is essential to establishing the scientific gold standard AWWI intends to represent," said Kraig Butrum, president of AWWI.
As the Director of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, Dr. Howell managed a wide-ranging program of biological research, inventory and monitoring, and information management. The center, home of the National Bird Banding Laboratory, the Breeding Bird Survey, and the Biological Survey Unit at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, had over 200 employees (45 Research Scientists), students, and volunteers, with a $20 million budget supporting nearly 170 studies.
"We are thrilled to have a wildlife ecologist of Judd Howell’s personal integrity and professional standing to further define and lead AWWI’s research initiatives" said Genevieve Thompson, vice president and executive director of Audubon Dakota and chair of AWWI’s Board of Directors.
Dr. Howell has extensive experience with AWWI’s core mission of facilitating collaboration between the wind energy industry and wildlife conservationists. He led a comprehensive research program to examine the impacts of wind energy development on birds that led to 17 reports and papers to industry from 1987 to 1997, some of which are recognized as pioneering work in the field. Prior to his work on wind energy development, Judd worked extensively with raptors. In addition to his work at AWWI, Dr. Howell works as a senior associate wildlife ecologist for H.T. Harvey and Associates, an environmental consulting firm based in Los Gatos, CA.
"I have always genuinely believed that the conservation of wildlife is a community effort," said Howell. "AWWI is a very important step and reflects the realization that bringing conservation and industry together to solve these difficult problems is a viable approach to keeping wildlife as part of our lives and our heritage."
As the nation faces an increasingly urgent push to site many megawatts of new wind facilities, AWWI’s research will play a pivotal, proactive role in sustainably meeting the future energy needs of our country. "My role is to help AWWI contribute to wildlife research and to the understanding of the relationship of wildlife to wind energy development by getting a solid scientific program in place that is acceptable to broad range of constituents," Howell said.
About AWWI
The American Wind Wildlife Institute was founded in November 2008 by 20 of the nation’s top science-based conservation and environmental groups and wind energy companies. AWWI’s mission is to facilitate timely and responsible development of wind energy while protecting wildlife and wildlife habitat. We do this through research, mapping, mitigation and public education on best practices in wind farm siting and habitat protection.
AWWI’s members include AES Wind Generation, Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies, Babcock and Brown, BP Alternative Energy, Clipper Windpower, E.ON, Environmental Defense Fund, enXco, GE Energy, Horizon Wind Energy, Iberdrola Renewables, National Audubon Society, Natural Resources Defense Council, Nordic Windpower, NRG Systems, Renewable Energy Systems Americas, The Nature Conservancy, The Sierra Club, Union of Concerned Scientists, and Vestas America.

Clean Technology Venture Investment Rebounds in 2Q09 After Two Consecutive Quarterly Declines
Clean Technology Venture Investment Rebounds in 2Q09 After Two Consecutive Quarterly Declines
--$1.2 billion in venture capital invested in clean technology companies, led by electric vehicles and biofuels, while solar investment hits new low
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1, 2009-- The Cleantech Group, founders of the cleantech sector and providers of leading global market research, events and advisory services for the cleantech ecosystem, along with Deloitte, which provides audit, tax, consulting and financial advisory services to cleantech companies, today released preliminary 2Q09 results for clean technology venture investments in North America, Europe, China and India, totaling $1.2 billion across 94 companies.
Cleantech venture investment rebounded in the second quarter, after having declined significantly in 4Q08 and 1Q09, paralleling declines in other investment sectors amid the global economic downturn. The 2Q09 total is up 12 percent from the previous quarter, although down 44 percent from the same period a year ago. The average round size in 2Q09 was $12.9 million, up from $12.3 million 1Q09.
"Cleantech venture investment has rebounded moderately after free-falling for two consecutive quarters," said Brian Fan, senior director of research, Cleantech Group. "We are seeing initial signs of recovery in other cleantech asset classes, including recent activity in solar tax equity, increased M&A levels, as well as billions in government stimulus that are being allocated globally to the cleantech sector over the next several quarters. Additionally, new climate and energy legislation from governments worldwide and the upcoming Copenhagen climate negotiations continue to be strong drivers of investment and innovation."
"While venture investment in solar is down dramatically, utility investment in cleantech is up. Solar thermal was the leading energy source procured through power purchase agreements in the first half of 2009," said Scott Smith, U.S. leader of Deloitte's Cleantech practice. "New investment tax credits are playing a major role in making new solar thermal, solar PV, and wind projects more economically viable for utilities, which are bringing their access to capital to the sector."
BY TECHNOLOGY SECTOR
The leading sector in the quarter was transportation - specifically, vehicles, biofuels and advanced batteries - reflecting attention on the automotive sector and significant government stimulus. Meanwhile, solar saw its lowest level of investment in over three years, with only $114 million invested, down from a high of $1.2 billion invested in 3Q08, as most investors, whose portfolios contain significant solar holdings, did not increase their exposure. The largest transactions in each technology sector were:
- VEHICLES - $236 million
Deals included San Diego startup V-Vehicle's raise of $100 million
to date from Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and T. Boone Pickens
to build a fuel-efficient car in Louisiana, EV manufacturer Fisker
Automotive, which raised $85 million from Eco-Drive Partners and
Kleiner Perkins to fund development and manufacturing of its Karma
plug-in hybrid, Norwegian EV startup Think Global which raised $39
million, and Israel's ETV Motors which raised $12 million from
Quercus Trust to develop an electric powertrain.
- BIOFUELS - $206 million
Deals included agri.capital, a European developer of biogas plants,
which raised $82 million from TCW Group and others and renewable oil
producer Solazyme, which raised $57 million from Braemar Energy
Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners and new investor VantagePoint
Venture Partners.
- ADVANCED BATTERIES - $165 million
Deals included lithium-ion startup A123, which raised a $100 million
round led by GE and others, and Deeya Energy, which raised $30
million from Technology Partners and others to develop its redox
flow batteries.
- SOLAR - $114 million
Deals included Indian solar developer Cobol Technologies, which
raised $30 million from Pangea Capital, as well as CSP technology
provider Ausra, which raised $25.5 million from Khosla Ventures and
Kleiner Perkins, among others. Another CSP company, Stirling-engine
dish vendor Infinia, raised $14.1 million in convertible debt, as
part of a $50 million planned raise.
M&As AND IPOs
Clean technology M&A totaled an estimated 138 transactions in 2Q09, of which totals were disclosed for 40 transactions totaling $12.2 billion. This is up 291 percent from 1Q09, which saw 123 M&A transactions, of which 28 were disclosed for a total of $3.1 billion.
Cleantech Group noted two cleantech IPOs in 2Q09: China Metal Recycling began trading on the Hong Kong Futures Exchange, raising $186 million, and Duoyuan Global Water Inc. listed on the NYSE raising $88 million. Another notable transaction was Broadwind Energy's transfer of shares from OTC-BB to the NASDAQ on April 9th.
BY GEOGRAPHY
North America accounted for 66 percent of the total, while Europe and Israel accounted for 21 percent, India for 11 percent, and China for one percent.
- EUROPE: European and Israeli companies raised USD $259 million in 30
disclosed rounds, down 13 percent from 1Q09 and down 17
percent from 2Q08. Energy Generation ($130.5 million, 11
deals) companies received the most investment, followed by
Transportation ($51.0 million, 2 deals). The largest deal was
German biogas plant developer agri.capital which raised $81.7
million and helped Germany ($95.4 million, two deals) gain
the top position in the country rankings in Europe. The UK
was second ($55.4 million, 13 deals), and Norway ($39.0
million, one deal) was third, thanks to Think Global's $39
million round, the second largest deal of the quarter.
- CHINA: There were six cleantech VC deals totaling USD $18 million in
China. Advanced battery technologies raised USD $10 million to
Develop lithium-ion batteries. Hunan Joyfly New Material
attracted USD $4.3 million to develop environmental friendly
materials.
- INDIA: Indian cleantech companies raised USD $131 million in seven
investment rounds (of which one deal amount was not
disclosed), an increase of 167 percent from the previous
quarter and up 161 percent from the same period last year. The
largest deal was a USD $42 million round for Hyderabad-based
Ramky Enviro Engineers which specializes in recycling and
waste. The most active investor was IL&FS (Infrastructure
Leasing and Financial Services Limited) which invested in two
deals. Other investors in the quarter included Blue Run
Ventures, DFJ, Mumbai Angels, New Enterprise Associates (NEA)

Air Control Technology & CO2 Recycling
CO2 Solution Inc. (TSX:CST.V) CO2 Solution Inc. has developed a proprietary bio-technological platform for the efficient capture of carbon dioxide (CO2), the most important greenhouse gas (GHG), from power plants and other large stationary sources of emissions. The Company's technology platform exploits the natural power of a bio-catalyst (enzyme), carbonic anhydrase, which functions within humans and other mammals to manage CO2 during respiration. CO2 Solution has successfully adapted the enzyme to function within an industrial environment, and thus has taken advantage of a biomimetic approach to CO2 capture based on millions of years of evolution. The Company is commercializing its technology for coal fired power generation, the oil sands and other CO2-intensive industries where a low-cost capture solution is key to meeting climate change legislation in a cost effective manner.
Hydrodec Group plc (AIM:HYR.L) - The company provides advanced oil and chemical process technology, products and services to industry.

Questor is recognized for its particular expertise in the combustion of hydrocarbons, sour gas (H2S), VOCs and BTEX gases.

Ontario, Canada Lauded As North American Wind Power Leader
Ontario, Canada Lauded As North American Wind Power Leader
June 29 2009- Ontario, Canada was hailed as North America's wind energy leader recently at an international conference in South Korea, where George Smitherman, Ontario's Deputy Premier and Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, accepted the 2009 World Wind Energy Award.
The World Wind Energy Association presented its annual award to Minister Smitherman for his "outstanding achievements in making Ontario the leading wind energy jurisdiction in North America." The international association also recognized the Minister's role in championing Ontario's Green Energy and Green Economy Act, calling the recently adopted legislation a decisive step toward establishing a strong domestic wind industry in the province and making it a worldwide green leader.
The World Wind Energy Award has been handed out annually since 2002 to international leaders who have made extraordinary contributions in the development of wind energy worldwide. Minister Smitherman is the first Canadian recipient of the award. He joins past recipients from Brazil, China, Denmark, Egypt, Germany and India.
QUICK FACTS
•Ontario is the leading wind capacity jurisdiction in Canada, with almost 1,000 megawatts of wind capacity, equivalent to the consumption of about a quarter of a million average Ontario households. •Ontario's Green Energy Act is expected to create more than 50,000 direct and indirect jobs by the end of 2012, and see the investment of at least $5 billion in infrastructure and expenditure on renewable generation and conservation. "Ontario has worked very hard to become a leader in the use of clean, renewable wind power. By supporting innovative green energy programs, we're attracting investment, creating jobs and securing a healthier future for all Ontarians," said Dalton McGuinty, Premier of Ontario
"The first major event I spoke at as Ontario's Minister of Energy and Infrastructure was before this group last year, at the 2008 World Wind Energy Conference. I said then that Ontario was poised to move quickly to make a difference in greening our society and I am pleased to say that today - one year later - we are well on our way," said Minister Smitherman,.
"Under your political responsibility and leadership in the Ontario Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure, the Green Energy Act was initiated and adopted as a decisive step in establishing a strong domestic wind industry in Ontario and making the province a green leader in North America and worldwide," said Dr. Anil Kane, President, World Wind Energy Association.

Energy/Climate Bill Passes with a 219-212 Vote
The House passed energy/climate change bill, 219-212 today - just making it !
Next - goes to the Senate
previous news -on importance of the Bill
THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary_____________________________________________________________________________For Immediate Release June 25, 2009
REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENTON THE IMPORTANCE OF PASSING A HISTORIC ENERGY BILL
Rose Garden
2:00 P.M. EDT
THE PRESIDENT: Hey, guys. Good afternoon. Right now, the House of Representatives is moving towards a vote of historic proportions on a piece of legislation that will open the door to a new clean energy economy.
For more than three decades, we've talked about our dependence on foreign oil. And for more than three decades, we've seen that dependence grow. We've seen our reliance on fossil fuels jeopardize our national security. We've seen it pollute the air we breathe and endanger our planet. And most of all, we've seen that others countries realize a critical truth: The nation that leads in the creation of a clean energy economy will be the nation that leads the 21st century global economy.
Now is the time for the United States of America to realize this, as well. Now is the time for us to lead. The energy bill before the House will finally create a set of incentives that will spark a clean energy transformation of our economy. It will spur the development of low-carbon sources of energy -- everything from wind, solar, and geothermal power to safe nuclear energy and cleaner coal. It will spur new energy savings like the efficient windows and other materials that reduce heating costs in the winter and cooling costs in the summer.
And most importantly, it will make possible the creation of millions of new jobs. Now, make no mistake -- this is a jobs bill. We're already seeing why this is true in the clean energy investments we're making through the Recovery Act. In California, 3,000 people will be employed to build a new solar plant that will create 1,000 jobs. In Michigan, investments in wind turbines and wind technology is expected to create over, 2,600 jobs. In Florida, three new solar projects are expected to employ 1,400 people.
The list goes on and on, but the point is this: This legislation will finally make clean energy the profitable kind of energy. That will lead to the creation of new businesses and entire new industries. And that will lead to American jobs that pay well and can't be outsourced.
I've often talked about the need to build a new foundation for economic growth so that we don't return to the endless cycle of bubble and bust that has led us into this deep recession. Clean energy and the jobs it creates will be absolutely critical to that new foundation.
This legislation has also been written carefully to address the concerns that many have expressed in the past. Instead of increasing the deficit, it's paid for by the polluters who currently emit dangerous carbon emissions. It provides assistance to businesses and families as they make the gradual transition to clean energy technologies. It gives rural communities and farmers the opportunity to participate in climate solutions and generate new income. And above all, it will protect consumers from the costs of this transition so that in a decade, the price to the average American will be about the same as a postage stamp per day.
Because this legislation is so balanced and sensible, it's already attracted a remarkable coalition of consumer and environmental groups, labor and business leaders, Democrats and Republicans.
Now I urge every member of Congress -- Democrat and Republican -- to come together to support this legislation. I can't stress enough the importance of this vote. I know this is going to be a close vote, in part because of the misinformation that's out there that suggests there's somehow a contradiction between investing in clean energy and our economic growth. But my call to those members of Congress who are still on the fence, as well as to the American people, is this: We cannot be afraid of the future, and we can't be prisoners of the past. We've been talking about this issue for decades, and now is the time to finally act.
There's no disagreement over whether our dependence on foreign oil is endangering our security; we know it is. There's no longer a debate about whether carbon pollution is placing our planet in jeopardy; it's happening. And there's no longer a question about whether the jobs and the industries of the 21st century will be centered around clean, renewable energy. The only question is, which country will create these jobs and these industries? And I want that answer to be the United States of America. And I believe that the American people and the men and women they sent to Congress share that view.
So let's take this opportunity to come together and meet our obligations -- to our constituents, to our children, to God's creation, and to future generations. Thank you very much.

What Does Investorideas.com Founder have in Common with T. Boone Pickens?
What Does Investorideas.com Founder have in Common with T. Boone Pickens?
-An interest in Investing in the Environment, Natural Gas, Water and a love for Wild Horses
Point Roberts, WA, DELTA, BC –June 25, 2009 – Investorideas.com founder and President, Dawn Van Zant
comments on the vision for her two companies, Investorideas.com and Wildheartranch.com and the common threads of investing in the environment and a love for wild horses and endangered animals.
“I run two separate companies, Investorideas.com and Wildheartranch.com, that on the surface have nothing in common from the outside, and it would be a surprise to anyone looking at each one separately that the same person created both.
Investorideas.com is a financial web site that provides research tools for investors, and we have created content by industry sector, with a primary focus on environment and water. We were one of the first investor websites covering renewable energy and water – and were doing so before it became ‘mainstream’ for retail investors. We have built relationships with some of the sectors leading experts and have held online investor conferences and interviewed some of the best known names in water and renewable energy. We have also covered natural gas stocks for years and have a comprehensive natural gas stocks directory.
Being in the financial markets for over 12 years, Investorideas.com has had its share of great successes and been confronted with financial failures like everyone else, but in its best years it has enabled me to help fund and support my creative and heart- felt projects.
WildHeartRanch.com is a publishing and Toy Company that is based on original content I created and wrote about endangered and wild animal conservation. Our main product lines are the No More Night Mares, a book and toy line about saving wild horses, I Sea Horses, a line of colorful seahorse toys about wild horses that transform into sea horses to save themselves, and Bradford and the Journey to the Desert of Lop, a story about a boy’s journey to the Gobi desert to save the last wild Bactrian camels, inspired by my friends son’s battle with cancer. All of the lines are written and created from the heart, are non- commercial and are designed to promote awareness and education for endangered species and respect for the environment.
Wild Heart has never been a financial success, but has had great accolades from consumers and reviewers that “get it “. We have had our ideas copied and stolen by others who ironically have had more commercial success than we have, but I venture to guess that they have never received the letters we do from the recipients of our product lines.
I still have faith and hope for the creative properties and still hold the vision of making movies and telling the stories in a bigger venue.
My business coach Sara Basloe, Master Elite Coach from Anthony Robbins Company asked me in one of my sessions to find a like- minded role model to follow. I kept thinking of women – and instantly thought of Oprah and other strong women, but really felt although I admired them, I was not like them.
Looking at T. Boone Pickens, I have found inspiration and common threads for all of my business and dreams.
He is a pure, straight talking entrepreneur who invests in and supports causes that I also believe in.
From his investment in Mesa Water, his push for Wind Energy, the formation of The Pickens Plan, his natural gas company Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE ) and his support for wildlife conservation, I think I have found my role model. Boone also testified before the US Congress several years ago in support of legislation banning horse slaughter for human consumption. His wife Madeleine has established the Madeleine Pickens Wild Horse Sanctuary.
So in giving hope to business people like myself and others, I thank you Mr. Pickens. We have common threads, you just have more $$$ and 000’s attached to it. But the dream is just as big. “

About T. Boone Pickens:
“I firmly believe one of the reasons I was put on this Earth was to make money, and be generous with it,” Pickens says. “And that’s what I’ve continually tried to do.”
The Pickens Foundation is improving lives through grants supporting educational programs, medical research, athletics and corporate wellness, at-risk youths, the entrepreneurial process and conservation and wildlife initiatives.

Pickens Plan – Promoting Clean Energy http://www.pickensplan.com/
More than 1.5 million people have joined through the website, which has had more than 15 million hits.
The Pickens Plan:
•Create millions of new jobs by building out the capacity to generate up to 22 percent of our electricity from wind. And adding to that with additional solar generation capacity;
•Building a 21st century backbone electrical transmission grid;
•Providing incentives for homeowners and the owners of commercial buildings to upgrade their insulation and other energy saving options; and
•Using America's natural gas to replace imported oil as a transportation fuel in addition to its other uses in power generation, chemicals, etc.

http://www.wildheartranch.com/, Wild Heart Ranch Inc., a children's toy and publishing company that has built its brands around original stories about nature and endangered species, encourages young readers and parents to become informed and make a difference in the animal world. The current lines, "Bradford and the Journey to the Desert of Lop", "I Sea Horses, From Sky to Sea" and "No More Night Mares" address conservation of the critically endangered wild Bactrian camels, seahorses and wild horses.
No More Night Mares, A Dream of Freedom -Review by: Dana E. Blozis
Author Dawn Van Zant brings readers the magical tale of wild horses searching for freedom in The No More Night Mares, A Dream of Freedom. In this delightful children's book, Van Zant captivates readers with the legend of Eclipse, a mighty stallion determined to protect his herd from capture. With the help of rival stallion Golden Earth, Eclipse deftly escapes man's grasp, valiantly leading his mares Comet, Moonbeam, and Lucky Stars into the night sky.
This story is poignantly written by Van Zant who has long been a lover of animals and their stories. She lovingly portrays the struggle of wild horses to remain free in a land where capture appears imminent. Weaving a lesson of comfort and victory into the story, Van Zant's words are spirited and colourful, allowing the reader to become immersed in the story. At the same time, the author shares a bit of history of wild horses and their diminished presence in America today.
Magnificently illustrated, lifelong horse lover Kim McElroy offers more than an artist's rendering of the lively horses in Van Zant's story. Rather, she captures their spirits and their souls, helping young readers understand the horses' majestic beauty, their dreams and their fears. The careful portrayal of each horse contains rich colors and shadows, giving it life and character throughout the story.

All of the lines are written and created from the heart, are non- commercial and are designed to promote awareness and education for endangered species and respect for the environment.
Wild Heart has never been a financial success, but has had great accolades from consumers and reviewers that “get it “. We have had our ideas copied and stolen by others who ironically have had more commercial success than we have, but I venture to guess that they have never received the letters we do from the recipients of our product lines.
I still have faith and hope for the creative properties and still hold the vision of making movies and telling the stories in a bigger venue.
My business coach Sara Basloe, Master Elite Coach from Anthony Robbins Company asked me in one of my sessions to find a like- minded role model to follow. I kept thinking of women – and instantly thought of Oprah and other strong women, but really felt although I admired them, I was not like them.
Looking at T. Boone Pickens, I have found inspiration and common threads for all of my business and dreams.
He is a pure, straight talking entrepreneur who invests in and supports causes that I also believe in.
From his investment in Mesa Water, his push for Wind Energy, the formation of The Pickens Plan, his natural gas company Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE ) and his support for wildlife conservation, I think I have found my role model. Boone also testified before the US Congress several years ago in support of legislation banning horse slaughter for human consumption. His wife Madeleine has established the Madeleine Pickens Wild Horse Sanctuary.
So in giving hope to business people like myself and others, I thank you Mr. Pickens. We have common threads, you just have more $$$ and 000’s attached to it. But the dream is just as big. “

No More Night Mares, A Dream of Freedom -Review by: Dana E. Blozis
Author Dawn Van Zant brings readers the magical tale of wild horses searching for freedom in The No More Night Mares, A Dream of Freedom. In this delightful children's book, Van Zant captivates readers with the legend of Eclipse, a mighty stallion determined to protect his herd from capture. With the help of rival stallion Golden Earth, Eclipse deftly escapes man's grasp, valiantly leading his mares Comet, Moonbeam, and Lucky Stars into the night sky.
This story is poignantly written by Van Zant who has long been a lover of animals and their stories. She lovingly portrays the struggle of wild horses to remain free in a land where capture appears imminent. Weaving a lesson of comfort and victory into the story, Van Zant's words are spirited and colourful, allowing the reader to become immersed in the story. At the same time, the author shares a bit of history of wild horses and their diminished presence in America today.
Magnificently illustrated, lifelong horse lover Kim McElroy offers more than an artist's rendering of the lively horses in Van Zant's story. Rather, she captures their spirits and their souls, helping young readers understand the horses' majestic beauty, their dreams and their fears. The careful portrayal of each horse contains rich colors and shadows, giving it life and character throughout the story.

GWS Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: GWSC) Announces Advisory Board
GWS Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: GWSC) Announces Advisory Board
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- GWS Technologies, Inc., (OTCBB: GWSC) an alternative energy company developing renewable energy solutions, announced today that it is establishing an advisory board to guide the development of its alternative energy projects.
“The addition of subject matter experts in the fields of real estate financing, alternative energy and manufacturing will enable us to take advantage of opportunities for solar development in the Southwest, including more direct participation in developing solar farms,” said GWS President Richard Reincke.
Christopher Cota of Hermosa Beach, California is the first appointment announced by the company. Mr. Cota brings specialized expertise in commercial real estate acquisition and development financing, as well as electronic component and electronic manufacturing services. “GWS will enable commercial property owners to increase the value of their assets by implementing improvements to their buildings and integrating ‘green’ power generation technologies, as well as assisting our clients to apply for the federal grants and tax incentives available for such projects. In addition to arranging capital equipment and real estate financing for our clients, GWS will also negotiate power purchase agreements on behalf of our clients,” Mr. Cota said.
News media have reported a “solar land rush” in the desert Southwest as Israeli and German solar firms, utilities and speculators try to lock up hundreds of thousands of acres of desert land for proposed solar power plants. California and surrounding states have mandated massive increases in renewable energy in the next few years, and experts predict that the solar power industry could be a $45 billion market by 2020.
