This is how renewable energy should be advanced - private money is invested in developing new methods of nonpolluting power. Taylor Kuykendall of the Beckley Register Herald reports on Google's plan to throw cash at several renewable energy sources. One possible source of renewable power in West Virginia is a geothermal hotspot in the eastern portion of the state.
I wouldn't put my money into these projects, which generally can't survive without significant government subsidies, and don't show much immediate promise. But I respect others who are trying to develop new industries without using tax dollars or government coercion. The founders of Google are evidently willing to put their money where their mouths are.
