Article Abstract:
Colorado-based National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is promised an appropriation of $300 million in the 2007 budget to energy-efficiency and renewable-energy programs within the Department of Energy. Endowed with some 300 days of sunshine per year and enough wind potential to power about eight states its own size, Colorado continues to at least have the potential to become the nation's boomtown of renewable-energy and geosciences innovation.
