Constellation Energy announced that it has been selected by Montana-Dakota Utilities Co., a division of MDU Resources Group, Inc., to develop a load response program for the utility's commercial and industrial electric service customers in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota.
NEAL CONAN: This is TALK OF THE NATION. I'm Neal Conan in Washington. No nuclear power plants have been built in this country since the accident at Three Mile Island more than 30 years ago. The old reactors continue to provide 20 percent of our electrical power, but many of them will start to come
During the second quarter of 2011, nearly all of the U.S. saw normal to above-normal wind speeds compared to long-term averages, according to data reported by AWS Truepower.
I very much appreciate the opportunity to testify today before the Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure concerning regulation of hydraulic fracturing. It is a pleasure and privilege to be here to represent my state of Oklahoma.
U.S. wind energy production over the next 30 to 50 years will largely be unaffected by upward changes in global temperature, say a pair of Indiana University Bloomington scientists who analyzed output from several regional climate models to assess future wind patterns in America’s lower 48 states.
The use of a chemical transport model may become increasingly helpful as a method of simulating the release, transport and fate of chemical constituents in process water streams.
AWS Truewind cited a number of factors as bringing above-normal wind speeds to much of the United States, aiding wind power generation in the fourth quarter of 2010.
According to the Wall Street Journal, FPL Energy, said wind conditions in the third quarter were the worst it has seen since starting a wind-power database in the early 1970s.
Despite battle lines forming every time there is a plan to install a transmission line, a report from NREL says building long-haul transmission lines is essential to bring wind energy to the eastern United States.
