Is the U.S. Number One in Green Energy Potential?
Tuesday, December 8, 2009
According to a recent Ernst and Young Report(E&Y) titled Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Indices, the United States has the greatest potential for green energy adoption.
China led the United States slightly in wind energy potential, with a wind index score of 72 versus America's 71. E&Y attributed China's lead to a recent announcement that the country would not require its wind energy developments to use domestically sourced components exclusively.
When it came to solar energy potential, the United States was in the lead. The U.S. solar photovoltaic score was right behind Germany's score - 72 versus 74. America was the unquestioned leader in solar CSP, or concentrating solar power. With a score of 76 score, it was ahead of every country except Spain.
The United States is well-suited to solar CSP because of the strong sunshine and open spaces available in the Southwest. CSP, which involves mirrors aimed at a central heating tower, requires many acres of space.
The green energy report cites "a general rise in countries favoring solar technology," adding that solar is "growing {in} importance...as a generation technology going forward."
