Energy & Power cubit

A sustainable energy infrastructure enjoyed by many in the "Western World" has proven an invaluable enabler and support for our commerce, livelihood, growth and influence.

I'm reminded of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality. What will it take to wean off the sweet crude and embrace the new technologies? Let's explore this. ~
