The Clean Power Revolution [Paperback]

Troy Helming (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 22, 2005

The Clean Power Revolution is the 1st book ever written that describes a detailed, market-driven plan (i.e. it does not rely on any support from the U.S. government) to convert America from a fossil-fuel-based energy economy to 100% clean power - and save the economy $20 Trillion by 2025. The book describes The Freedom Plan(r), which describes a 10-year, step-by-step plan to implement renewable energy (primarily wind, solar, biomass) to power 100% of the national electric grid AND make enough hydrogen from water to power every car and truck in America. The Freedom Plan will cost $2 Trillion, take 10 years to complete, save the U.S. economy $20 Trillion by 2025, and add $6 Trillion of positive economic impact (including millions of new jobs and billions of dollars of new capital formation). An easy read (technical where it needs to be, but not boring!), this book will educate the reader about wind power and hydrogen while painting a picture of what life can be like in America with a renewable energy economy.

Editorial Reviews

Review

One of the most important books I've ever read. Troy is the Thomas Edison of the 21st Century! --Jack Lannom (FL), author of People First

Finally a book that shows the way environmental and fiscal responsibility can, and do, go hand in hand. --Sky Canyon (CO), former President & Publisher, New World Library

A must read for anyone tired of rising gasoline prices; a solid plan to get America free from foreign oil. --Craig Andres (MO), Professional Journalist for 2 Decades and TV News Producer

From the Publisher

Learn about The Freedom Plan: 1. Completion in 10 years; Cost: $2 Trillion; Saves the U.S. economy $20 Trillion by 2025. 2. Completely eliminates dependence on foreign oil & dirty fossil fuels. 3. Provides $6 Trillion+ of positive economic impact to America: a. 8 - 10 Million new jobs, with 3 Million + high-wage manufacturing jobs. b. Hundreds of billions of royalties paid to rural America every year where the projects are located. c. Stabilizes & lowers volatile energy prices (e.g. what is the fuel cost of wind energy?) 4. The Freedom PlanSM is Self-Funding once 1 million Americans choose clean power in the form of FutureWindSM (offered by numerous organizations who have officially endorsed The Freedom PlanSM) or a similar Green Tag that is audited by Grant Thornton and supports implementation of The Freedom PlanSM (profits from that 1st phase are reinvested to fund completion). 5. Does not rely on any government subsidies, mandates, or financial support. This is a Market-Driven solution to our energy crisis. Any plan that relies on government will ultimately fail, according to Fortune Magazine (8/11/2004 "How to Kick the Oil Habit").

This review is from: The Clean Power Revolution (Paperback)

I have been interested in alternative energy since Junior High (and for me that was 25 years ago); this is the first book that has really motivated me to do something about clean energy and the environment. It is a must read for anyone that breathes air and drives a car! I think that includes just about all of us on "Spaceship Earth" (in memory of the Late R. Buckminster Fuller). The Clean Power Revolution contains over 200 cited footnotes from 3rd party sources to back up the message and narrative.
