SCE, FERC Talk Arizona-SoCal Transmission

Take a look at a story in Energy Daily today (requires login) updating the transmission flap between Southern California Edison and Arizona utility regulators. It appears that SCE is talking with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to authorize the Arizona Corporation Commission to approve a new transmission line to carry power from Arizona to southern California. You will recall that last year the Arizona panel rejected Edison's proposal, calling the project an "extension cord" to siphon off needed Arizona generation to help out SCE. Energy Daily notes that the Edison case could affect controversial transmission plans in other states.

  • This is being rather generous to Lutz. 1. The "Volt", in no small part, will be targeted as a product to people who care about energy and environmental issues. These people don't embrace Lutz' antideluvian concepts of rejecting science. How responsible is it for a GM executive to be rejecting the science? 2. As well, Lutz didn't exactly sound too enthusiastic about the Volt itself. 3. And, GM public communications has 'defended' Lutz in rather absurd ways. -A Siegel

  • This article is right on - small businesses have a huge role to play in sustainability. Not only do they add up in aggregate, but many small businesses operate in industries that can have a significant environmental impact depending on the exact practices, like dry cleaners, auto repair shops, etc. Green is also starting to affect the bottom line more and more, customers are increasingly voting with their feet for more sustainable businesses as can be seen from the growth of sites like http://www.ecovian.com. This is also a huge opportunity for small businesses to leapfrog their bigger brothers by being more agile in adopting these measures. -Emily

  • Great entry, Katie. Love the level of detail you managed to get in there! Probably won't be able to compete with coal and oil any time the next decade, but definitely a great technology to look into! Keep it up :) -Rune (Norway)
