This notice was sent to the Oklahoma Renewable Energy Council earlier this week.  It is almost time to start!  I am going to check it out, you should too :)

 

Of all the things renewable energy might be missing in Oklahoma to succeed, one we might not be talking about enough is leadership. A leader in the Tulsa area for renewable energy is Francis Renewable Energy.  Their plan, years ago, was to plant a flag in the desert and wait for the growth to come.  Tulsa isn't known for solar, geothermal and wind power, but FRE is.  They have assembled a great team with sales, design & engineering, install and financing all in house.  Turnkey RE projects are their specialty.  

Elementary Energy Education in Oklahoma What exactly are our children being taught about energy in public schools today?  It is summer right now, but several organizations are working to get new curriculum into Oklahoma schools this fall.  A recent article written in conjunction with State Impact Oklahoma (a public radio collaboration focused on energy, the environment and the economy) cites several reasons for renewable energy advocates to be concerned.
