“Conspiracy Watch” was busy yesterday. This is one of a dozen similar quotes they posted. I’m not sure whether this was the original word for word phrase that may have been edited since Ben Franklin uttered it, or not. Wouldnt it be weird if we learned that many nuggets of wisdom we cherish were uttered in a drunken stupor? -djo-

{ –<\/span><\/em>Renewable energy<\/a> may currently make up only a small percentage of U.S. energy generation capacity, but it\u2019s one of the fastest growing sectors. – Renewable energy generation\u2014primarily wind and solar power\u2014provided more than 40 percent of the new energy capacity in the U.S. in the first three quarters of this year, according to the latest U.S. Federation Energy Regulation Commission (FERC) Energy Infrastructure Update<\/a>. Oil, nuclear<\/a> and especially coal<\/a> provided little new capacity, with renewables outstripping them more than 35 times. Only natural gas, driven by the growth of fracking<\/a>, showed more growth, and many industry observers think its growth potential is finite<\/a>. – The new installed capacity of natural gas declined compared to the first three quarters of 2013, from 6,643 megawatt (MW) to 5,153. Wind was the big winner, upping its installed capacity from 965 MW to 1,614 in that period. In September, new wind capacity led the way with 367 MW, followed by natural gas with 114. Coal showed no increase in existing capacity so far this year. Overall, new capacity from all forms of energy declined from 11,452 in the first three quarters of last year to 8,860 this year. – Among FERC\u2019s project updates is that Kern County, California\u2019s Techachapi Wind Energy Storage project is now up and running.\u00a0The South California Edison Project, FERC says, \u201cconsists of an 8 MW-four-hour (32 MWh) lithium-ion battery and a smart inverter system, [and] will help\u00a0store energy from the existing 5,000 wind turbines and any future additions in the Techachapi Wind Resource Area.\u00a0Housed inside a 6,300 square foot facility, it is the largest battery energy storage in North America.\u201d Such projects bode well for the continued growth of wind power. – Natural gas still leads overall energy generation capacity in the U.S. by a long shot. It currently provides more than 42 percent of the total. But fracked natural gas and oil production is\u00a0expected to fall off sharply<\/a>,\u00a0as extraction companies hit the most productive \u201csweet spots\u201d first and then move on to areas with less accessible oil and gas that\u2019s more expensive to reach. – Despite its precipitous decline, coal hangs onto the second place spot for now, generating more than 28 percent of U.S. installed capacity. Nuclear comes in next with 9.3 percent, followed by water at 8.4 percent and wind at 5.3 percent. All other forms of energy generation capacity are far behind. Solar currently provides less than one percent. But PV Magazine, which serves the photovoltaic industry, points out<\/a> that FERC\u2019s figures only include utility-scale solar, leaving out residential and business installations, which it says are among the fastest growing sources of renewable energy. – \u201cThe steady and rapid growth of renewable energy is unlikely to abate as prices continue to drop and the technologies continue to improve,\u201d said Ken Bossong, executive director of \u00a0the nonprofit research group the SUN DAY Campaign. \u201cThe era of coal, oil and nuclear is drawing to a close; the age of renewable energy is now upon us.\u201d –\u00a0 —djo— }<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
