\nA ground breaking project is underway in the coastal empire that\nharnesses the power of the sun and hopes to pave the way for the\nfuture of clean energy. One main part of this project is for\neveryone to be able to supply their own power.\n

\nClean, sustainable energy has been a hot topic for some time now,\nespecially, energy that doesn’t send our money overseas.\n

\n“We need to develop every available source of American\nenergy,” says President Obama.\n

\nThe problem is that until now alternate sources have been out of\nreach or too expensive for most of us.\n

\n“It’s very important we learn how to harness our own power and\nhow we structure that today is important for future\ngenerations,” says Dr. Sidney Smith, co-owner of Lower rates\nfor Customers.\n

\n“Lower Rates for Customers” is hoping to do just that.\nThe plan is to make solar power the way of the future and affordable\nfor everyone. They have an all encompassing plan that can have\nanyone generating their own electricity within 45 days, even if you\ndon’t have the land to put up solar panels.\n

\n“We provide you with the place, the hook up, the technology\nand Georgia power will send you a check to supplement your power\nbill,” says Dr. Pat Godbey, co-owner of Tabby Power.\n

\nBusiness like the Driftaway Cafe jumped on the chance to get\ninvolved.\n

\n“Their financial model for the future just struck a nerve with\nme and I wanted to be a part of it,” says Driftaway owner,\nRobyn Quattlebaum.\n<\/blockquote>\nCheaper, cleaner, and accessible: that’s good business sense!\n
