OpenEI: A Tremendous Resource on Renewable Energy

I wanted to do a short post about OpenEI, a tremendous new resource on the renewable energy economy sponsored by the US Department of Energy and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The site, still in beta mode, uses Wiki collaboration to document, catalogue and analyses the renewable energy sector in the U.S. and globally.



A couple of interesting tidbits from the site:

• Colorado has the second largest number of "Registered Organizations" after California
  
  
• The Rockies are considered a "Clean Energy Hot Spot."
