Comments on: Sony Pictures Entertainment Discusses Latest Eco-Packaging Developments http://www.renewable-energy-news.info/sustainable-eco-friendly-packaging/ Sat, 24 Sep 2011 12:21:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Andrew Ferrick http://www.renewable-energy-news.info/sustainable-eco-friendly-packaging/comment-page-1/#comment-4582 Andrew Ferrick Fri, 29 Jan 2010 17:56:13 +0000 http://www.renewable-energy-news.info/?p=1502#comment-4582 Why build the new transmission lines? Why build Solar Electric Generating plants so far from where it is going to be used? What is wrong with the existing system that we have now? The answer is simple, because we are over thinking the solution. We can install smaller solar farms within the communities and utilize private and public land. For instance the PPA programs that cities are looking into and implementing is a great start. Allowing private companies to put out the upfront cost of building the system while the company is reaping the profits in the long run, this is a win-win situation for both sides. By utilizing Solade Concepts, Solar Structures (Solar Bus Stop, Comfort Station, Cabana, Umbrella and more) throughout the cities, factories or businesses, they can be placed in parking lots, (To Charge Electric Vehicles) sidewalks, eating areas, around pools or anywhere the need arises, while building an internal and virtually invisible solar farm. Residential use could also be part of the solution by adding a multi-functional structure at a home as opposed to a large, costly rooftop project. This concept will allow the renewable electricity to be used where the actual electricity is being generated as opposed to the massive transmission lines project. This type of undertaking may not solve the entire problem but it sure will take a big bite out of it. If these plans are implemented it will keep utility rates down as the utility companies will not have to build new plants, transmission lines or smart grids, lowering the operating cost of their company.

Even though DVDs are beginning to include a digital copy, technology should just go ahead and push to digital copies being the primary format. I predict this will be the case by 2015.
