Supporting SRIC

In 1990 five U.S. National Laboratories reported that either fair competition plus restored research priority, or a proper accounting of its environmental benefits, could enable renewable energy to supply three-fifths of today's total U.S. energy requirements at competitive prices. Renewables could even supply one-fifth more electricity that the United States now uses.

Natural Capitalism, 1989
Paul Hawken, Amory Lovins, and L. Hunter Lovins
