Renewables

[FrodoGoofball]

Have any of you been electrical engineers or permanant members of any branch of science/engineering dealing with renewables?

My degrees are officially in Mechanical Engineering, but my more recent work was in materials science, which is closely tied to renewables.

A summary of my work and views on renewables may be found here.

Since this was written, many U.S. renewable producers have collapsed (IMHO due to a combination of less-than-stellar management and policies driving perverse incentives), but worldwide demand for nonconvetional energy sources ("fracking", solar mirror, wind, etc.) continues to grow, and there have been new innovations in wind, solar, and storage, but nothing likely to change the state of the market for the next few years.
