\nThis Georgia Tech announcement emphasizes how quickly technology is\nchanging toward healthier energy production and away from coal. I would\nhate to see our South Georgia stuck with a contaminating, health-harming\ncoal plant for 50 years while so much progress would be going on during\nthat time.\n<\/blockquote>\nThe article by Daniel E. Frank dated 18 May 2011\nappears on a law firm’s page,\n\nGeorgia Tech Clean Energy Speaker Series: \u201cHigh-Voltage Grid of the Future\u201d<\/a>:\n\n\n
\n\n<\/a>\nSutherland Partner Daniel E. Frank will speak at the Georgia Tech Clean\nEnergy Speaker Series, \u201cHigh-Voltage Grid of the Future\u201d on Wednesday,\nMay 18, 2011, from noon to 1:30 p.m.\n

\nAnalysts estimate that more than $300 billion in public and private\nfunds will likely be invested in electric transmission in the United\nStates during the next 20 years. Several factors drive this investment\nagenda, which include: updating\/replacing old infrastructure, providing\ninfrastructure that eases the transmission of alternative power sources,\nfacilitating wholesale power market liquidity, and improving power\nreliability and energy security. Plan to join the panelists for a timely\ndiscussion of the high-voltage grid of the future.\n

\nSutherland is a proud sponsor of the series, which features presentations\non issues surrounding clean energy in the Southeastern United States,\nincluding the projected need for electric energy and oil and natural gas,\nand the opportunities and challenges for meeting those needs with clean\nenergy technologies. Participants can attend for free in person at the\nGeorgia Tech College of Management – LeCraw Auditorium or via Webinar.\n<\/blockquote>\nThis is what will end coal plants and biomass plants:\nclean solar on local rooftops, and clean energy through a smart electrical grid\nto export from south Georgia to Atlanta and beyond.\n
