The Smart Grid Gets Its Own ETF

I've owned ITC for a while now, glad to see it's included! While it doesn't look perfect, I like the fact that at least it's not just market cap weighted.

Will Pickens' Scrapped Project Slow Wind Energy Momentum?

The easiest way to get pushed back to the 1800's is to rely on a dwindling supply of fossil fuels while at the same time not pushing for renewable energy while we have the chance. Sure we can just forget about wind, solar, and geothermal power for the next decade or two, but eventually these fossil fuel sources are going to run out and then what? We don't have a plan B, that's what. We'll probably end up importing all the latest technology from China or whoever else took the initiative to develop renewable energy.

IMO, we either pay a little now, or a lot later!

Good list, thanks for the ideas. I've been looking at ITRI more of as a smart grid play, but these are some good ideas too!
