Because we are now running out of gas and oil, we must prepare quickly for a third change, to strict conservation and to the use of coal and permanent renewable energy sources, like solar power.
JIMMY CARTER, televised speech, Apr. 18, 1977
We need to drive the cost of solar energy down to where it's competitive for bulk power generation.
JIM DIPESO, speech, Sept. 13, 2003
The use of solar energy offers huge potential for natural resource and climate protection, and for the expansion of renewable energies on the road to a future-oriented energy supply.
MARGARETA WOLF, speech, Jun. 20, 2004
As the technology for solar cells gets better and better, this form of clean, renewable energy will find more applications that take up less space and produce more electricity, to meet the energy needs of our homes, schools and businesses.
SAMUEL BODMAN, speech, July 14, 2005
The use of solar energy has not been opened up because the oil industry does not own the sun.
I think we need to take positive steps toward space solar-power systems. We need to move in a step-by-step manner. It's a real possibility to have a great new energy source for mankind.
DANA ROHRABACHER, Space.com, Mar. 5, 2001
Clearly, we need more incentives to quickly increase the use of wind and solar power; they will cut costs, increase our energy independence and our national security and reduce the consequences of global warming.
HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON, speech at Cleantech Venture Forum VIII, Oct. 25, 2005
