Solar

• The Environment America Research and Policy Center found that the U.S. "has the potential to produce more than 100 times as much electricity from solar PV and concentrating solar power (CSP) installations as the nation consumes each year."

• It adds that every single state could generate more solar electricity than its residents currently consume.

Researchers to test Gulf Stream energy turbines off Florida’s coast

• By Zachary Fagenson June 5, 2014

• Near the end of the summer, scientists will begin anchoring buoys equipped with a variety of sensors to the ocean floor, in about 900 feet (300 meters) of water some 12 nautical miles off the Florida coast near Fort Lauderdale.

Bureau of Ocean and Energy Management (BOEM)

• The Gulf Stream is a massive ocean current that runs north from the southern tip of Florida to the Canadian coast before turning east and heading across the ocean as the North Atlantic current.

• It comes closest to shore near south Florida, making it an ideal location to test tether turbines to harness the current, which moves at about 5.4 kilometers per hour (3.36 miles per hour) according to a 2012 University of Massachusetts study.

• Ocean currents are more reliable than fickle winds, according to the BOEM, and could potentially provide up to 35 percent of Florida's energy needs.
