Las Vegas is a pretty sunny place, right? So why isn’t the whole city powered through solar energy? You could ask this question for a lot of places in the world. The answer we’re hearing more and more is that alternative energy is not just about being good, but being politically advantageous and affordable. Bob Boehm from The University of Nevada’s Center for Energy Research explains the ups and downs of trying to implement alternative energy as a primary source of power. He also shows us some of the mind blowing technology (our favorite being sun captured through fiber optics for lighting!) that they’re testing at the CER. Thanks Bob!
