  EIA Renewable Energy-€ Renewable Energy Consumption and Electricity Preliminary 2006 Statistics” 

  http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/solar.renewables/page/prelim_trends/rea_prereport.html

  Overview Preliminary data indicates that total renewable energy consumption increased 7 percent between 2005 and 2006 (Table 1). In contrast, total U.S. energy consumption declined 1 percent, mainly due ... to decreased consumption of fossil fuels (including decreased natural gas consumption in the residential sector and decreased coal and petroleum consumption in the electric power sector). [1] Renewable energy s market share stood at almost 7 percent in 2006, slightly greater than for 2005 (Table 1 and Figure 1). Total renewable consumption stood at 6.844 quadrillion Btu. Consistent with historical patterns, the electric power sector consumed the majority (56 percent) of renewable energy (Table 2). The industrial sector consumed 28 percent, with the transportation and commercial sectors using the remainder. Hydroelectric conventional power had the largest absolute year-to-year change at 186 trillion Btu, but this represented only a 7 percent increase, while biofuels [2] consumption inc   [More...] [Less...]

The plan is simple: Get a site launched ... in a few months, see if people like it, and sell ads and sponsorships (or not). 0. I pitched 0 venture capitalists to fund it. Life is simple when you can launch a company with a credit-card level debt. 7.5. 7.5 weeks went by from the time I registered the domain truemors.com to the site going live. Life is also good because of open source and Word Press. $4,500. The total software development cost was $4,500. The guys at Electric Pulp did the work. Honestly, I wasn’t a believer in remote teams trying to work together on version 1 of a product, but Electric Pulp changed my mind. $4,824.14. The total cost of the legal fees was $4,824.14.
