Over 700 renewable energy professionals are gathering this week in New York City at the Renewable Energy Finance Forum to discuss the future of electricity.  According to this blog, today’s keynote address was giving by Michael Webber, the President/CEO of American Electric Power, and he stated that “by 2035, this industry will be fundamentally different.  I think you’ll be dealing with a much more distributed infrastructure, interfacing with the customer in a new and interesting way.”  He went on to  declare “this is an industry that is ready to move forward.”  It is encouraging to hear CEO’s of large and influential utility companies making statements to encourage the development of renewable energy.  There is still a lot of work to be done, but with support from these key players in the energy industry, our nation can head down a path towards more clean, renewable sources of energy including biogas from anaerobic digestion, and away from our dependence on fossil fuels.
