Last year I helped so many members of Pickens Plan learn about personal home energy plans. It's all about conservation of power, and home power generation, things I have been doing at my residence to lower my electricity costs. Send me a friend request a to add me T, I'd be honored to have you as a friend here.

BTW, Texas: I just posted an article link on my pickens page about Home Wind Systems in Texas. Your state's representatives, governor, and public utility commission officials are not in your corner with this "weak policy" on Net Metering. Instead they have the tables turned against green power for businesses and homeowners. Texas has created multiple sets of rules for loopholes and you have less rights than people in other states. You should read that article, important.

A free green energy system is here now for those who live in New York and Texas, 22 other states are coming as soon as they are fully energy deregulated. Imagine your house and car powered 100% by clean green wind power.. It is possible, as both Pickens and Al Gore say.

Going green with electricity for a home is as easy as switching energy providers in deregulated states such as Texas and New York. Just switch to an energy provider that offers this option.. Click on link to see what the latest up to date electricity rates are. I can answer any concerns or questions.

Imagine living in a home powered by wind, without spending a dime on machines, wires, inverters, towers, and grid interties or panels!

You can also plug your electric scooter or car into your home and recharge it with wind power also... Guess what?

You are now a living example that Al Gore's and Picken's Plan works.. We can all live 100% green like this if we want to. Getting 100% carbon free for home electricity and cars is not that hard.. Make the choice... go green. If you live a monopoly energy state where you have no choices, push for deregulation, so that you at least have this power and this CHOICE available.

At the very least, save some money and pick a lower priced energy plan.. The above site will also let you compare rates and save up to 28% on your electricity bill. Try it out.. It is FREE to switch and no costs are involved as far as equipment or installation.

Careers are opening up in this field. Green energy consultants are needed in all 50 states. Push green power, educate consumers, switch them to green power.

We can save the planet, one person at a time, one house at a time. All it takes is you getting involved and taking action. Contact me if interested, and I can provide more information.

At 11:42am on August 2, 2008, T L Newman said…: Thanks for all the replies - this all sounds good, but I am somewhat reluctant of Mr. Pickens' motives - it seems money is the driving force and if the PUC here in Austin approves his plan we will all be charged fees for installing all this - from Austin to Trent Texas is a long, long way - I do know that it surely covers more than just this area - - and it will be expensive - I was born and raised in Trent - and the Wind farm is south of Trent. My mother passed away in 2005 - and I have bros and a sister who still live there - we still own land there and an old house - which is presently unliveable - I am interested in moving back out there, but need a way to make a living as the economy is in the mud and there are no signs of getting better - I was laid from from AT&T about a year ago - 1 year and 3 mos before retirement - - I have found nothing about anyone employed as a result of all this either in installation, maintaining, etc. I wonder how they got installed as I nor my family has never seen anyone out there I have lots of questions about all this. Maybe it is my west Texas nature - LOL - Thanks to you all. TL

We all share a common goal. Check our our Pickens group at "Live Carbon Free" and see what we are promoting. Conservation is a way for us to bridge the gap to the future of alternative energy. Alternative energy of any kind is a few years away from implementing and we can make a huge impact by simple discipline in our lifestlyes. We welcome you to join us at Live Carbon Free and value your input. I am also a member of another organization working is this area. Check it out at www.usgreenhome.info.

Sorry I didn't get back with you sooner. Yeah, I live in the RR Pville area, but no I don't live (or have property in the Trent Mesa area) I just have to travel through there a few times a year and have stopped to take some pictures a couple of times. Those wind turbines are pretty impressive! Take care.

You live in Round Rock, Williamson County, Texas? I lived in central and south Austin for 21 years (1983-2004). Do you live in Trent, TX also - where the wind farm is on Trent Mesa?
