Atomic energy technology, politics, and perceptions from a nuclear energy insider who served as a US nuclear submarine engineer officer

Reasons to Fight The CSP (Concentrating Solar Power) Land Rush

May 24, 2009 By Rod Adams

On May 19, 2009 the US Senate Appropriations Committee heard budget defense testimony from Dr. David Chu, the Secretary of Energy. During the testimony, Senator Dianne Feinstein, a big Chu supporter, lectured him on a new land rush that is occurring on the deserts of Southern California. Her concerns touched a nerve for me, so I put together a little clip to share her thoughts and mine on the topic. Feedback is not only welcome, but encouraged.
