I am living in Lubbock, Tx. I believe the timing is just right to pressure our elected officials to work in our best intrest for change. Geting solar panels or a small wind turbine should not be so expensive or dificult. There are still many laws in the way. Zone,permits and taxation just to name a few. We need to make it as easy as buying lawn furniture or washer or dryer. Help me make this happen. Together we can .Heres a few links to help you.

S.A.F.E. Fencing System

This unique invention combines the functionality of a perimeter fencing system with a unique solar panel system built right into the fence’s upper shell. As the sun rises and sets, the solar panels in the fence collect the sun’s rays and transforms them into free, clean, renewable energy which is then inverted into the electric meter of the home or office building. This system reduces the electric bill and helps eliminate the public’s dependence on carbon based fuels.

A fence that protects your property, the environment, and your wallet!

WATCH VIDEO: S.A.F.E. Energy Fencing System

New Jersey – EarthSure, a renewable energy company and innovator in alternative energy sources announces the latest patent-pending renewable energy invention. Solar Alternative Functioning Energy (S.A.F.E.) Fencing System, is an earth-friendly fencing configuration made out of recycled PVC that not only protects the owner’s property, it also collects the sun’s rays and transforms them into renewable energy!

This unique invention combines the functionality of a perimeter fencing system with a unique solar panel system built inside to conceal the inner walls of the fence. As the sun rises, the sunlight is collected by a series of optical lenses that transmit the light to solar panels which is then transformed into free, clean, renewable energy. This is then inverted into the electric meter of the home, office, or commercial building. This system reduces the electric bill and helps eliminate the public’s dependence on carbon based fuels.

Manufacturers of the S.A.F.E. fence say that the cost of the fence and installation in time will pay for itself. It is the only fence of its kind to offer a return on investment by saving money on the owner’s electric bill. As an added bonus, the purchase and installation can be subsidized by the government anywhere from 30% and up to 50% in some states. Solar energy users can also receive RECs (renewable energy credits) based on how much energy it produces at that location.

Another benefit of the system is that, unlike bulky and unsightly solar panels, this solar energy fencing system is an attractive unit, one that adds beauty and protection to the property, all while reducing our carbon footprint by creating clean, green energy. Earthsure predicts that with all of the benefits of this new fencing system including the look and functionality as well as the earth-saving benefits will convince the public to protect their property and the world with S.A.F.E. Fencing System.

About Earth-Sure:
EarthSure Renewable Energy Corp. is an American corporation innovating technologies to produce energy in a clean and affordable way. Utilizing solar and wind power as a source of renewable energy, EarthSure systems are alternatives to conventional energy producing methods that result in carbon emissions.

Ray Saluccio, an accomplished inventor and entrepreneur founded EarthSure Renewable Energy Corp. in order to market and develop the systems he designs and to bring solar energy production to the masses, easily and affordably.

EarthSure’s goal is to offer a cost-effective way for all individuals and businesses to use Green Energy, regardless of size or industry. They are on the cutting edge of compliance with America's Green Initiatives as they relate to the energy and environmental provisions in the Stimulus Plan. For more information about S.A.F.E. fencing system and the many other innovative developments in solar and wind power created by EarthSure, visit their website at S.A.F.E. Fencing System

If the Pickens plan (which I support) supported a National Energy Lottery (see blog below) proposal and the 4 million followers donated 5 bucks a week for this Energy Raffle, there would be 800 winners a week or 41,600 winners a year of a $25,000 voucher good only for Renewable products, ie; solar, wind, hybrid, energy green appliances, etc...and be fully transferrable as well. Take advantage of the Fed's energy credit and it would buy around $32,000 worth of Green product/s.

If the Pickens Plan ran this program and retained 10% for operations, not only would it generate further income for the cause but the donators would have some fun with the potential of winning this voucher and 25,000 to 1 odds. Better than a money lottery that doesn't promote going green.

At $20,000,000 a week @ 10%, that's $2,000,000 for the Pickens Plan for operations. Would certainly be enough for expanding the mission. That's over a Billion for the year! Maybe take that money and invest in a windmill anufacturing company that is owned by the workers. Spread the prosperity and have it Made in USA by the owners/workers. see entire plan at: http://nationalenergylottery.blogspot.com/
Also an inventor who has developed a prototye called Road Power. Will convert downhill vehicle traffic 24/7/365 to electricity alongside the highways of America. No Sun, Wind, Water, Land required. One unit will power approximately 3 homes per year. Looking for Angel Investors to take to next level. Would be a great asset to the Pickens Plan to get us off foreign oil even faster. Thank you, Gary

I am attending grad school in Savannah, GA, but I am from originally from Oklahoma. Yes, the wind is blowing and so is the possibility to reconnect people for a better quality of life. My background is in industrial design and I am currently working on my strategic thinking thesis. My focus is on creating the diffusion of wind energy. I am taking a multiple lenses approach so that I can understand all of the actors and connections that are seen and unseen. This is a social issue on a grand scale, but I have yet to find anyone that is attacking it on this level. I just returned from Oklahoma where I conducted some of my research. As Bill McDonough says, "Nature isn't efficient, it's abundant," and this is how I will look small wind... Small wind is more efficient in its abundance.

Hi Alex,

We MUST speak out as "The Voice of the People".

When we do not be iresponsible, and become silent, then We as a democracy have failed in our duty to assure a Government, "By the People".

Government has failed to enforce the laws, so we had better enforce the laws against all the criminals, who have only personal greed on their mind.

Pickens Plan "attitude" means that we as Americans should "buy American", instead of buying foriegn, and "stoping the importation of oil or oil products" is a good place to start.

Our "balance of payments" is horrible!!

I really think that our "educated elite" are asleep!! What a shame and what a sham.

Let's stop this inferior attitude of "American made stuff is junky". This tells me that the American people are junky!! Buy American.....The job you save may be your own.

AB 560 needs to pass:
Assembly Bill 560 would increase the cap on "net metering," which gives solar customers credit on their electric bill for surplus power they transfer to the utility. Currently, a utility is not obligated to sign net-metering contracts once solar power equals 2.5 percent of its peak electricity demand, a level PG&E is approaching. AB 560 would quadruple that cap, to 10 percent.

Please spread the word and take action by calling your Representative - requesting the bill be passed. Thanks!

I believe the projected 22% of US electricity generation by 2030 can be accelerated and also increased through the diffusion of small wind. The major problems with monumental-scale wind are: capital, manufacturing, logistics, the grid. My current research is focused on alternatives to monumental-scale wind which will help the US reduce our dependency on foreign oil. Monumental-scale wind can not get us there on its own. Yes, there are many elements that effect the diffusion of wind, but this is where I have started.
Cheers,

Hi Albert,

My previous message vanished, so I will try again.

Yes, we must stop importing foriegn oil. It is worse than hemmoraging our life blood, and our economic strength, needlessly.

If you read, "How God Can Change Your Brain", you would understand the function of the "anterior cingulate", and why intellegent people can do crazy stuff, like what Bernard Madeoff does.

America is headed for extinction like that the Inca's. The Greeks and the Romans, because our brain works like that of a frog cooking in boiling water.
The frog is cooked because he cannot sense the danger of being cooked.

WE are in deep doo-doo folks, and we had better get serious about our economic situation, and the "oil crisis".

I keep envisioning the whole system with a Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) for renewables raising the cost of all energy for consumers. As much as I know a FiT would benefit my company S&T, I have a philosophical difficulty supporting the tariffs. Can you help me to overcome this mental hurdle?

The Light is Green!
Clyde Childers Comment by Clyde Childers on May 18, 2009 at 7:13pm
I submit there are two action we need to take: One is to have Congress pass a RSP bill that will start down the road towards energy independant and other in the states is to enacting feed-in tariffs. Tax break don't build wealth or put our people to work. All tax breaks give are potholes in your streets. You must build a market for your products, feed-in tariffs does that. Would you like to earn $250,000 by selling wind energy into the grid or solar from your backyard by installing a 1 MW machine. You could you know! see http://www.buildamericabuild.com
