You couldn't really miss
Gianni Agnelli.

He was involved
with everything Italians love.

Sex, cars, and sports.

Every
woman was in love with him.

Every man wanted to be him.

People that were around him,
they were all in awe of him.

Gianni had a great eye.

Obsessed by aesthetics.

Everybody tried
to copy him.

When he was around,
the face of life changed.

Electricity.

Gianni played
a big role in saving Fiat.

Fiat put the whole of Italy
on four wheels.

Then the unrest started.

We had the sense
of evolution.

He had great sympathy
for workers

and also for their plight.

The industrial comeback
of Italy is Fiat.

And it changed Italy completely.

Mr. Agnelli.
He was the king of Italy.

Are you aware
of what's going down
on the street today?

You know what's going
on down the street?
Nope.

You know
that there's
a climate march

going on
down the street?
You don't know.

Do you know there's
a climate march going on
down the street?

What is it?
A climate march.

No, I didn't know.
You don't know about that.

There might end up being
more people waiting
for the new iPhone

than for the parade.
We'll see.

And if that's where
the parade's gonna be,

it's completely empty, so.

I've always been
a little skeptical of marches.

I feel like they're
more for the marchers
than anything else.

I had no idea
what it was gonna be like.

All I'd been told
is that they were expecting
about 40,000 people.

A little bit more energy
going on down here.

I think there's more people

than they thought
there would be.

No.
Just touch
the screen?

Yeah, just touch the screen.
Don't touch the...

No, keep it
this way.
Oh, like that.

- We're a radical group.
- You are?

Yeah.
What's so radical
about you?

Well, we advocate
for a separate hypothetical
militant underground

to actually carry out
direct actions against
industrial infrastructure.

Good luck with that.
Thank you.

Hey, Habitat animal,
come here!

How's it going today?
It's a bad, bad day
for polar bears.

Yeah, it is.

Climate change has got to go!

Hey, hey, ho, ho!

Climate change has got to go!

Hey, hey, ho, ho!
Yeah! Whoo!

There's often a disconnect.

Like, people say they're green,
but they still drive everywhere.

And they make
thousands of copies at work.

Sandy was that wake up call

to us as New Yorkers, to say,

"Climate change is
actually a real issue
that we have to deal with."

- Whose streets? Our streets!
- Whose streets? Our streets!

Look who showed up
at the climate march,

Mark Ruffalo.
Hello.

Walmart, Google, Apple,

Crayola, Johnson & Johnson...

all of these companies
have moved to a hundred
percent renewable energy,

not because
they necessarily care
about climate change,

although I think
in their hearts they do...
Yeah.

...but because they see
it's economically better
for them.

Well, I'll tell you something.

You know, you see
something like this

and see all the commitments
that organizations are
willing to make,

and then I'm like, "Really?"

I can't turn my thermostat
from 72 to 68?"

Close to a half
a million people

wanting some action
on climate change.

The whole thing
left me thinking about
some very specific questions.

So I'm thinking back
on that climate march,

and the bottom line to me is

that 400,000 people showed up

and said, "Do something!"

I mean, it was oddly like,
celebratory in a way.

I can't help but think
that renewable energy

or the hope of it is tied up
in that somehow,

because, as far
as I'm concerned,

I don't know
what else would give people
a sense of hope, right?

The question is,
"What about renewable energy?"

I mean you hear a lot about,
"Oh yeah, they promise,"
or this and that.

But honestly, honestly...

can we make
enough renewable energy

to supply the world
and replace fossil fuels?

How would we do that?

And will we do that?
Most importantly.

That's what I want to know.

You know, there's
a family angle to this
business about energy.

Like a lot of people,
my grandfather,
Charlie Redford,

he struggled
supporting his young family
during the Depression.

Eventually, he got
an accounting job
at Standard Oil.

And 30 years later,
he retired near the top

of the Chevron
corporate ladder.

His son, Robert, my dad,
took quite a different path.

He started out
working at the loading bays
at the Standard Oil refinery,

but his penchant
for the arts took him
in a whole other direction.

the movies.

And well, that worked out
pretty good.

I'm Alexander Pierce.

My father served
in the 101st.
Come on in.

But being in Hollywood
was never going to be
enough for my dad,

or my mom,
for that matter.

I grew up
in a home with active
and engaged parents,

particularly when
it came to the promise
of solar energy.

They even made
an Academy Award-nominated
short film about it.

- I'm very worried.
- Somebody do something.

- Don't look at me, man.
- Find more oil!

One of the most important
solar energy developments

involves photovoltaic cells.

So you'd think
with this sort of pedigree

that I would have
an honorary degree
in renewable energy, right?

But the truth is, I don't.

Luckily, I have a friend
who's doing well with energy

and environmental projects
on the global markets.

And in his spare time,
he helps connect philanthropic
capital to energy innovation.

Hey, hey!
How are you?

Good. Good to see you.
Good to see you!

So about 10 years ago,
there was this epiphany
that I had.

I worked at a company
where we tried to forecast

the future of the Internet
and digital media.

But then I realized that
that's what the last 30
or 40 years had been about,

sort of the story of humanity
was about the microprocessor

and all the things that it
enabled, that changed our lives.

But I felt like
the next 30 or 40 years
was about energy,

because that's
the lowest common denominator
of every other resource.

If you have infinite energy,

you can boil the ocean
and make water you can drink.

If you have infinite energy,

you can reconfigure
the chemical bonds
in a plant

and make a fuel
you can put in your car.

So if we're
going to scale the world
for 11 billion people,

energy is what it's about.

What you just described to me
is exactly what my problem is,

because it...

I... I just keep on bumping up
against these Uber realities...

And it's too big.
It's too big!

So first and foremost,
it sounds like you are
not doing much

and that you have...
energy paralysis.

It's very hard to get excited
and do something meaningful

about something
you can't see, right?
Right.

You have
never seen energy.

What you have seen
is the result of it.

You've seen the car move.
You've seen the light come on.

Maybe it would be, for me,
for my own edification...
Yeah.

...if you could
take me on the journey
of the lonely electron.

The easiest way
for me to think about this

has been
the analogy to water.

So think
of the electricity grid

exactly like a set
of water pipes.

The amount of water
that's flowing, right,

the current is
the size of the pipe.

And then how much power
we're delivering,

how strong that motion is
is the pressure,

how hard we're pushing
that water. That's voltage.

So if you want to think
about electricity,

moving electrons
just like moving water,

the size of the pipe
is current,

the force of the water
is the voltage.

That make sense so far?
Yes.

Okay. So there is
a power plant somewhere,

and at that place,
we make some form of heat,

like we burn coal or gas

or we have
some radioactive reaction
that makes heat,

and we use that heat
to boil water.

We boil water,
we get steam.

And that steam goes,
"Do-do-do-do-do-do-do," up.

And when it goes up,
it turns a turbine around.

That turbine turning
makes electrons move.

And out of that power plant,
we're pushing a big number
of electrons...

...down a big pipe.

But then you come
to this little thing
called a substation.

And what happens
at the substation is

we take these
really high voltages
that are kind of dangerous,

and we're going to step them
down, so we're now pushing
less electrons,

less hard than we did
right out of the plant.

And then that electron
moves through the wires
to go to your home.

It goes out of the socket
through your phone,

making the screen light up,
then goes back in,

and then...
goes through the rest of the system.

And by the way,
you can actually do this.

You can track it yourself.
I am a trail runner,

and the most
instructive exercise for me

to understand
the power system

was to find a power plant

and then track
the power line corridor

where the transmission
lines go,

and just start running.

So off I went,
just me and my phone camera.

Coming in here,
they're going that way,

they're going that way,
and they're going over there.

There's towers
going everywhere.

Super trippy driving
by the Chevron refinery.

That's where
my grandpa worked.

And it's just so ugly.

What do you mean you're
looking for electricity?

What is that about?
I just thought
I would try

to figure out where the hell

my electricity comes from.

Can't you check your meter
and find out that way?

Well, but it doesn't say
where the origin is.

It doesn't tell you
literally where it's from.

Well, what an interesting
little journey you're on.

- You could say...
- And incredibly boring.

Yeah.

Pretty sleepy little town.

I mean, it seems like it's
holding it's own economically.

Probably because there is
a power plant here, right?

Here it is!

Here's my nearest power plant.

The Pittsburg
Generating Station.

I found it.

Just a tangle of utility lines
going over everything.

It is suitably depressing.

And as you can see,
it makes electricity,

and everyone says,
"Oh, all right, well,
that's good enough."

But when you turn this way...

and look across the bay...

Whoa!

Tons of windmills.

So, you tell me,

how you do you want
to make your power?

I mean, intuitively speaking,

is this what you want
your power plant to look like?

Or that?

Holy shit,
they're massive!

Wow!

I've been impressed
by a lot of technology
in my lifetime, but...

I don't know
if anything tops this.

- Where are you?

I'm probably about an hour
and a half from home.

As you can imagine,

I'm not going to be home
in time for dinner.

Oh, you won't
be home for dinner?

I've been out in the garden.
Don't worry.

No, no, no, no, don't worry.
Don't worry.

Good. I'll see you
in a few hours.

- Hey, Dad!
- Hi, Leens!

What's up?
Yeah.

I'm thinking, you know,
when you come home,

how about you come
on a road trip with me

to explore
some renewable energy
in the desert?

What? Why would I go?

Because you're really fun,
and I just...

I'm always looking
for an excuse to be around you.

Don't you feel
like you should...

bring someone who actually
knows about... that stuff?

Like someone who could
counter your ignorance?

We can't just
have two dumb-dumbs
out there on the road.

I'd like to say
that was the first time

my daughter dropkicked
one of my plans,

but it would be a lie.

However, I did have better luck

with an entrepreneur
musician friend

who builds guitar amps
in his spare time.

You can make an argument that,
"Well, maybe it's too late."

That's one argument,
right? "Screw it."

We're all doomed,"
you know?

Suck the carbon down...
Yeah.

...and you know,
wait for the apocalypse.
Yeah.

The counterargument is,
"Every little bit helps."

We're on the site
of the world's largest

commercial solar
thermal facility.

So we have almost
180,000 heliostats,

what we call
heliostats...

the mirrors that are
surrounding us...

and three, you know,
significant towers.

I'm going to do something
at great risk to my own image,

and that is try and explain
what this plant is
doing right now.

Great.
It's not that hard.

That makes it
even worse.
Yeah.

There is a star up here
emitting ultraviolet light.

It's coming down...
I'd go with "infrared"
on that, Jamie.

Okay, all right,
infrared 'cause we're
talking about heat.

And it's hitting hundreds
of thousands of mirrors.

And the cool thing
about these mirrors,
they're all aiming at that!

And that's why
that thing is glowing

like the Eye of Sauron
as we're standing here.

That's not the end
of it, though.

Apparently there's water
in there, and it super heats,

and it drives that steam
down that tower,

and goes somewhere
and turns turbines and makes
electricity and goes off.

Touché. Touché, Jamie.

From our perspective,
if you thought that we were
going to burn coal

a hundred years from now
and that that was going to be
a sustainable approach,

I think you're
grossly underestimating
the trajectory of technology.

Right.
So there's very competitive
electricity from renewables.

The problem is
the intermittency.

Yeah.
So solar thermal
is clearly aimed

when we compete
against renewables,

we're competing against
the fact that we can
deliver energy on demand.

So we're dispatchable.

When we compete
against a gas plant,

we're competing
against the fact that
we don't have emissions.

They do.

And we're supplying power
to California grid.

That's right. We're part
of the renewable mix.

We think
the current grid system

could sustain 25
to 30 percent renewables.

With a smarter grid...
meaning we could manage

the intermittency
of renewables better...

you can get
an even higher penetration.

California's talking
about a 50 percent standard.

There were, of course,
environmental issues building
this plant out here.

Sure.
But very significantly,

you didn't clear
a bunch of land.

You can see there's...
there's weeds growing

underneath these, uh,
these reflectors.

Right.
It was all done in place,
basically, right?

Any power plant is going
to be invasive by definition.

Mm-hmm.
It's a physical facility.
If you build a building,

- you build a power plant.
- Sure.

So the trade is,
what can you do

to be least
environmentally impactful?

There's a small group of people
who wouldn't want

the desert intruded on
for any purpose.

Sure.
And for them,
there's no solution.

There's nothing
you can do to say,
"We've mitigated.

We've done
the best we can."

I went to West Point,
got my engineering degree
at West Point.

- Oh, you were military?
- Tell me again,

you think this is invasive,
so you'd rather go out

and protect our oil interests
in places that hate us.

And for that,
you're willing to trade
dollars and bodies,

and that's
a good trade for you?
That's a good trade?

The true price of foreign oil.

No one is more familiar
with that

than the US Armed Forces.

Interestingly,
the Armed Forces,

the Navy in particular,
was beginning to embrace
renewable energy,

and I was determined
to understand why.

I'm in San Diego, man.
I'm going down to look

at what's happening
with the Navy.

They have a target,
I think, that's 50 percent
renewable energy.

And it turns out
that Ray Mabus...

he's the Secretary
of the Navy...

is behind a lot of this.

And I was able to wrangle
an interview with him today.

The ship you're standing on,
the America,

is a hybrid.
Okay. Ah.

The Marines, at the height
of the fighting in Afghanistan,

were losing one Marine,
killed or wounded,

for every 50 convoys
of fuel that came in,
guarding those fuels.

That's too high
a price to pay.

So if you can
make energy...

solar, wind...
where you are

and don't
have to have it
brought to you...

you talk to SEAL commanders
of some of these teams,

this one guy said,
"You know, we turned off
the generator...

"and all of a sudden
we could hear.

We could hear
when people were trying
to sneak up on us."

And he said that generator
running all the time,

it was like a bull's-eye.
"Come on over here."
Yeah. Yeah.

"We're here!"
"This is where we are."

Right.
It makes us
better fighters.

Yeah.
Now it's got
some great collateral...

lowers our carbon footprint,

it makes us better stewards
of the environment.

The Department of Defence
is the largest single user

of fossil fuels
in the world,

Navy and Marine Corps
about 40 percent of that.

By no later
than 2020, at least half
of all our energy,

afloat and ashore, will come
from non-fossil fuel sources.

We're going to be there
on shore, on our bases
by the end of this year.

No. No!
We'll be
five years early. Yeah.

We're a sea-going service,

but we own
3.5 million acres
of land,

and we have
117,000 buildings.

So we use a little bit
of energy on shore too.

But the next step
is to do microgrids

so that if something happens
to the big grid,

we can pull ourselves off
and still do our military job.

- Welcome to the bridge, sir.
- Is this progress at risk

of being rolled back
by political process

or do you feel like...

that there's this
sort of straight course
moving forward?

I hope and I believe
that it's becoming
the new normal.

DOD put in its
quadrennial defence review

that energy was
a national security priority.

It's a whole
of the federal government,

but it's also, America
is changing the way
it views energy.

America is
changing the way
it uses energy.

Was America really changing?

As it turned out,
the answer was hiding
in plain sight,

right in the middle
of Central Texas.

You know,
when you think of Texas,

you think of oil derricks,
you think of gas.

So, here's this little city
that goes a hundred
percent green.

We're the second city
in the country

to go a hundred percent green.

Burlington, Vermont
was the first.

Our duty
to our rate payers

is to provide
the lowest-cost energy.

When we compared wind
and solar to natural gas,

wind and solar
was about equal,

but the providers would
give us guaranteed contracts

for 25 years
on wind and solar,

and natural gas providers
was only for six years.

So that made it...
the decision pretty easy.

Do people see
solar and wind as,

"Oh no, it's going
to ruin our way of life,

our legacy,
and our history"?

Or do they just say,
"Hey, man, more energy"?

When you do something
new and different,

if it involves change,
I think some people
get concerned.

They just want
to make sure that it works,

and it doesn't
impact them negatively.

And in the job markets, uh,

I mean, we're still doing tons
of oil and gas in Texas.

Right.
Well, you'd just use it
for other sources

other than making
electricity.

Us good Republicans
don't like to raise taxes.

And so we're doing
all kinds of wonderful things

and the tax rate's
staying the same.

And so I'm spending money
like a Democrat. Okay?

But it's okay,
because you have to invest
in these things in Georgetown.

We do have
a banker on here.
Yeah.

He's a good friend
of mine and sometimes
I just cuss at him.

And I'm going, "Look,
what the fuck do you want"

"your legacy to be
a hundred years from now?

"That you cut
the tax rate by a penny?

You want that
on your tombstone? Really?"

I didn't run
on small ideas,

and I didn't run
to go cut ribbons.

I ran to make
a change in my community
in a meaningful way.

And what we need to do now
is we need to spend money.

If we don't spend money
right now in this economy,

what, we're going
to spend money

when we go back
in a recession? No!

Oh.
We got to spend
the money now.

Money.

Lots of it in the Bay Area
these days.

And more and more
of it's headed towards
clean energy products.

Quick Rack is
fully tested and...

Hydro-helio.
That sounds good.

So it's designed
as a giant LEGO.

You build it
as modular as you want.

This got my attention
'cause it reminds me
of the Good Humour truck.

I expect to open that
and see some ice cream
or something.

There's some beer in there,
no ice cream.

But it's a DC refrigerator,
so just solar direct into it.

I love the model.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like, "No drought
going on here."

Oh, I knocked over
your powerline!

Okay.
Holy cow.
Call the system.

Be careful, these are
high voltage, yeah?
Yeah.

There is so many options here.

I'm totally
freakin' overwhelmed.

You have 60 seconds
to pitch your idea

to an investor industry exec
that is sitting in front of you,

and then entrepreneurs

will get up and move
to the chair to your right.

So this is like
solar speed dating.

We've never met I don't think.
I certainly know your name.
I know who you guys are.

Is that a fully integrated
solution or are you just
selling the batteries?

It's a fully integrated
solution.

With our software platform,
we just want to sell and support
as much of it as possible.

That would be an awesome...
They're not going to be
developing their own...

In 47 states, by next year,
solar will be as cheap

if not cheaper than fossil fuel.

Forty-seven.
Forty-seven states.

Who are those three?

Well, there's actually...
Alaska?

...five states
including Florida,
where solar still is illegal.

So... I know. Crazy.
Wow.

And they're just missing out.
It's like, at this point,

why wouldn't you...
Yeah.

...when it's, you know,
creating more jobs
than Google, Apple,

Facebook, and Twitter
combined in the US?

That's how many people
the solar industry employs.

Where are the jobs?
What's going on?

So unlike fossil fuel
where it's all top-down
and centralized,

it's inherently decentralized,
it's distributed,

and it democratizes
energy production
and consumption.

And that requires a lot of jobs,
that requires a lot of hands.

One nuclear power plant
only needs so many people
to operate it.

Mini microgrids
on homes around the country
requires a lot of labour.

Solar used
to be about hardware,
it was about panels.

It was technological,
and now we're moving

to the place
where it's psychological.

It's about how to change
minds and hearts,

and give people
a choice in where
their energy comes from.

And the companies that are
up here today are doing that.

They're using software
and finance to make solar

the most abundant
and affordable energy
resource in the world.

Well, thank you so much
for taking the time.
You're welcome.

Do you go off
at the end of this evening

like a lot of people
that have conventions

and party it up,
do something fun, or what?

Of course. I hope we're going
to Solar Battle of the Bands.
What happens?

That's my plan.

♪ Come sunrise,
putting power on the grid ♪

So, clean energy products
seem to be moving

off the shelves
at a good pace.

But who was actually making
these products and where?

As it turned out,
the largest solar panel
manufacturing plant

in the western hemisphere
had just broken ground
in Buffalo, New York.

Put that on.
There you go, and it's got
that Velcro...

All right,
we going to go four-wheeling?

Yeah, I figured
you were ready for it.
All right, good.

This 88-acre parcel
is what will now host

the SolarCity
panel manufacturing facility.

But the state said,
"We will finance

"the construction
of the building,

"and we will also finance
the baseline equipment

"that you need to function
within that building.

And you'll be our tenants
in that building."

SolarCity said,
"What you've got going
in Buffalo sounds great,

"but you're thinking
about building a 225,000
square-foot structure.

We want to do a 1.2 million
square-foot structure."
Whoa!

Almost overnight,
Buffalo was made

one of the centers
of the solar industry

in the United States,
if not the world.

When my parents were born
and raised in the '30s,

even with the Depression,
Buffalo was a mighty
industrial community.

It had all the steel mills
and all the other manufacturing
facilities.

They saw it
all starting to fall apart.

We really saw it fall apart.

This facility will put
more people to work...

approximately 3,000 people...

than the steel plant
that once sat here,

that actually
polluted the community,
that we're still dealing with.

All we've ever wanted is
to have a community again,

like what our parents
took for granted.
Yeah.

That it's vibrant,
vital, sustainable...

hip. You know?
Yeah, yeah.

And it's got all that.

♪ East Coast, where you at?
Let me get... ♪

Buffalo, a city
on the rebound,

economically for sure.

But it didn't seem
to stop there.

The social fabric
was rebounding as well,

and renewable energy
was no small part of it.

PUSH Buffalo.

Basically they're about creating

sort of energy-independent
affordable housing.

The idea being,
making their own power,

they're conserving,
making it affordable.

So, I got to check
with these folks.

Well, PUSH stands

for People United
for Sustainable Housing.

It came about in 2005.

They are
a non-profit organization.

What do you call this?

This is basically
a small area

that we're taking care of,
doing green infrastructure
on the west side of Buffalo.

Most of the people
that garden here...

Solar as a sector is killing

the rest of the economy
with job creation,

so we know that there's
potential there,

and we want to bring
that potential home

to roost here
in the neighbourhood.

We want that rebound
to include everybody.

What's your favorite thing?
Mmm, banana.

- Banana?
- Ah.

When did you start actually
working on houses?

We did. So, yeah,
I think right when
the organization started,

one of the co-founders
bought a property

in the neighbourhood here.

We actually put together
some local tradespeople,
like Eddie,

and put him to work
on that first house
that was purchased,

kind of a volunteer brigade
that rehabbed it
on a shoestring budget.

From there, you know,
we went after funding

with our state
affordable housing agencies,
some charitable foundations.

By the end of this year,
we'll have 60 units

of affordable housing occupied.

As you see,
the gutter system here

runs down to our
rain garden back here.

And as you can see,

we have solar panels
top of this house.

And what you don't see is
up under the panelling here,

we have radiant
floor heating,

which will also help save
money on your heating bills.

The south face of the roof,
there's a solar thermal system,

and that provides
all the domestic hot water
in the house.

So anytime
Maxine draws water
for a bath,

that water has been
preheated by the sun.

It's very cool in here.
Yes, the way that it's made,

we got radiant floors.

Right. So, okay.

So that's what I got
to remember.

Like, having a floor
that's got mild

or just sort
of 60-degree water

will keep it from getting
too cold in the winter,

but in the summer
that's going to keep you cool.

Yes. Yes.
It goes both ways.

So does it take much
from you?

Do you have to do
anything or is it...

or are they just sort
of doing their own thing

on your roof,
the solar panels?

They do... I don't have
to do nothing.

Does the electricity
from those panels
go into the grid?

It flows into the grid,
and... and basically,

the amount that flows
is kind of set

against the amount
that Maxine would consume,

and if her system produces
more than she uses,

then she'll get
a credit on her bill.

So, what do you hear
from the neighbours?

They want
to know about it.

Tell them how
to get involved 'cause change
just doesn't happen.

It takes a process.
You got to work at it.

And PUSH is working hard,
forming relationships
to get things changed.

The state's committed
to this transition,

and we want to make sure
the people are leading that,

and that they have
ownership opportunities,

that they have
ways to redistribute
those economic benefits,

the environmental benefits
right in their neighbourhood.

Some people might
be surprised that Buffalo

is now a player
in the new energy economy.

But it's not as surprising
as you might think.

If you drive 20 minutes north,
you'll see a network

of Canadian
and American power plants

making clean energy
from moving water.

Five million cubic feet
every 60 seconds.

If you look
at the word "renewable"

and "generating power,"
the one that's killing it

is the one that's been
killing it all along.

Hydroelectric power.

Two million kilowatts
on this side,

two million on that side.
How much power is that?

Four million kilowatts,
a whole lot of power!

What can you do
with four million kilowatts?

You can power up
seven states
and two provinces,

which is what
they do with this.
Wow.

So it's a lot
of power.
Yeah.

Stand at the edge
of Niagara Falls,

and it's easy
to see the allure
of massive hydropower.

And yet,
this kind of clean energy...
well, it's not so clean.

Hoover Dam,
Grand Cooley Dam,

Garrison Dam...

buried under
their deep waters
are scenic rivers,

historic towns,
sacred Indian lands.

If only there was a way
to capture all that hydropower

without so much
destruction, right?

Well, some smart folks
have done just that

amidst the vast farmlands
of Central Oregon.

Look where
we are, right?

I mean, if I was
cruising down this road,

and I went
by this building,

I would say...

flow control,
overflow building,

maybe some
water-quality
monitoring station.

I would have no idea that
that's generating energy.

Yeah, and that's
kind of, you know...

maybe not the whole point,
but one of the points.

To take this
existing infrastructure...

so one important piece
to understand of course,

is that the water that you see
coming over that concrete drop
right there,

that is the original
irrigation canal
drop structure.

So if you wipe away
the building itself,

basically that channel
continuing all the way
down stream

has been here, again,
for something like seven
or eight decades.

The design objective
that we have is to basically

be able to come in,
put some power capture
on this... these existing drops,

but do so in a way that,
yeah, doesn't really disturb
the landscape,

that someone
just driving by

would not necessarily
have to know, per Se,

that something had
really changed on the canal
in any particular way.

Our father had the idea

that making ecologically
sustainable hydro

is something
that everyone
can get behind.

He was a sailor
and a pilot,

and he had this idea of,

"What if we could create
a hydropower turbine

"that uses
the same kind of concepts
that we use in sailing

where you can scale
to really large power
with low-pressure flow?"

When the electricity
from this unit is sold,

who's buying it
and who gets the dough?

The electricity
from this project specifically

will be purchased
by PacifiCorp,

which is a utility
that has a big footprint
across the Northwest.

And the project
itself was actually, uh,
developed in partnership

with the irrigation district,
but was purchased by Apple.

Purchased by them?

So Apple was getting
into the microhydro business?

What was that all about?

The Apple Data Center,

in the middle
of eastern Oregon.

When you think of the iCloud,

this is where it all happens.

So tell me,
in the grand scheme
of things,

where is Apple
with how much

renewable energy it uses?

So in the United States,

every facility
that we have,

every Apple facility

is 100 percent
renewably powered.

Around the world...
Wait a minute,
wait a minute.

Every store?
Every store
in the United States,

every office building
that we have...

of course our big complex,
our home in Cupertino,

but also
in Elk Grove, California,
in Austin, Texas...

a hundred percent
renewably powered.

And then our
four data centers,
also a hundred percent.

And around the world
we are 87 percent
renewably powered.

You were at the Natel site,
so you know that we don't stop

at the conventionally available
sources of energy.

We could buy and we do buy
wind power from the grid
here in Oregon.

Right.
And that's great.

And we actually buy
solar in California,
and that's great.

But when we decided that
we needed a data center
in North Carolina,

if we had gone
with the grid mix,

we would've been using
a significant amount
of electricity

from coal or nuclear
or natural gas.

And so what we did
there is we built our
own solar farm.

All right,
let's take a look.

Think about what
a data center is.

It's, you know,
servers working
all the time.

So if we know we're going
to use a lot of power,

if we know how much
that power costs,

if we have control over our
source of energy, that's a huge
business advantage for us.

Yeah, because, you know,
you're not subject to the spikes

and the volatile
energy prices,

and you know where it is
and you're making it yourself.

You've got
to be kidding me.

How do I get my hands
around how huge this is?

Let me just put you
in sort of virtual world.

Every single day, hundreds
of billions of iMessages,

billions of photos,
and then millions
of FaceTime chats...

all that has to happen,
it has to happen quickly,

and these are the centers
that make that happen.

Instead of having
to use conventional energy,

brown power,
it's all clean.

You know we're here
in high desert.

There's no air conditioning
in the server rooms.

The facility is cooled
70 percent of the year

with outside air.

Today, it's
a little bit warmer,

but it's cooled with air
running over wet material.

Just evaporative cooling.

There's a high likelihood
that right now

my daughter is FaceTiming
with her boyfriend.

Yeah, I know, my sons too.
Is there any...

What are the chances
that that's happening
in here somewhere?

Pretty likely.
Really?

Pretty likely.
She's on this coast,

that data is moving
through here somewhere.

Is there a moment
in the last decade

in terms of energy,
renewables, and efficiency...
does anything stand out?

Probably five or six years ago
I used to say, "I know
it's going to change,"

because I know
when I talk to young people,

they're not even questioning
that this is happening.

They just understand it,
feel like it's just happening.

Okay, well,
full disclosure here:

I looked into solar panels
for my home over a decade ago,

but they were
way more expensive

and less effective
in those days.

And the sales guy?
Well, he just kind
of bugged me.

Come on in!
But after a decade
of improvements,

solar panels have gotten
way more affordable.

And folks like me
who either can't

or don't want to fork out
the bucks for panels,

there are now companies
that will put their panels
on your roof

and sell you the electricity,
often for less than you're
currently paying.

What's not to love
about that?

It starts with determining

where the best positioning
is on the house

to get the most
out of your solar panels,

and designing it
from there.

So each panel
has its own inverter?

Yeah, if one
of these goes out,

it doesn't affect
the other ones.

The entire system, yeah.

Yeah.
With some of the other...

Sort of like the better kind
of Christmas lights.

Exactly like the better
kind of Christmas lights.

That's... no,
that's exactly what it is.

It doesn't take
the whole system down.
Yeah, uh-huh.

Here I have
this car charger.

Is that charger
actually accessing

the solar-charged electrons
from my roof?

Essentially, once your
system is active,

we are feeding
your house

with solar power.

So your
car charger

will be feeding
off of that,

and your house
will be feeding
off of that.

I'm driving
a solar-powered car.

Oh, cool!

That works.

I realized,
"What's the point
of having solar

if you've got
super crappy light bulbs?"

So I'm going
for the overall
upgrade option.

Yeah, just inhaled
some flame retardants.

I'd rather do more than less...

more workouts
instead of less ice cream,
that sort of thing.

So the notion
of efficiency has
never really lit me up.

But waste is waste,

and if I was going
to be making clean energy,
why waste it?

- Hey!
- Hey, Jamie.

How are you, Brian?
Good, how are you?

Good to see you.
Yeah, good to see
you again.

Yeah.

Give it to me
straight, Doc.

You know, the report's great.

It provides you with a road map

of what you might
be able to do towards,

you know,
energy efficiency
improvements,

comfort, air quality,
everything outlined herein.

The building shell,
we have two arenas:

One is the amount of draft,
and one is insulation.

We used the blower door
and that sucked all the air
out of the house,

and air starts coming in
from all these other places.

Can lights from the top.

Jeez, I never even
thought about that.

Yeah. Supply boots,
that's part of your
heating system.

The amount of energy
going into this unit,

only 80 percent of it comes out,
so you're losing 20 cents
on the dollar...

That sounds really bad.
...and you're just dumping
carbon monoxide into the garage.

Oh, that's nice.

Thank you.
So, um, give me
the bottom line, Doc.

What do you think's
the most overt,

simple, obvious,
for-dummies thing to do is?

Turn your temperature down
on your water heater.

Really?
Yeah, that's
the turn of a dial.

That's such good news.
Turn it down to 120,
and you're saving money.

It's so easy, isn't it?
Yeah, there's a...

there's a long list
of simple stuff and...

Really?
Yeah.

Long list,
but simple?
Yeah.

I can deal with that.
Yeah.

So I just finished
my first month

with my panels
on the house,

so I thought
I'd check and see
how it went,

how much
power I made.
And it turns out

I made more
than I needed.

So, that clean energy
went onto the grid

that I didn't need.

Hey, you know what?

Do you know
that we made
more clean...

we made more
clean electrons

than we used last month?

Cool!
Yeah.

You don't seem so excited.

No, it's very exciting.
Good for us.

Come on!

We're like a solar...

we are a solar household.

Yeah, well, that's like...
we're one... one house.

Eight billion houses to go.
That's how we're going
to go about it.

Jesus.

What a buzzkill.

Okay, so I was doing
something about my house,

doing something
about my car,

but as annoying as it was,
my daughter's point was
not lost on me.

What about everything else?

How are we going
to tie it all together

and make
clean energy work

at the massive scale
that it needs to?

Good to see you, Jamie.

The cavalry has arrived.

How you doing?

I don't know, man.

I don't really understand
how we're ever, you know...

I-I... I see how
we're scaling up the panels,

the centralized,
the microhydro.

But in terms of your...
our everyday life...
Yeah.

...what is the key
to being 100 percent
renewable on the grid then?

What components are
missing right now that...
that need to happen?

To be 100 percent
renewable?
Yeah.

Energy storage
is an imperative.
That has to happen.

No way around it.
It's weird.

We have storage
for like every form
of commodity.

We don't go out
and pick, every afternoon,

precisely the number
of ears of corn

that will be eaten
that night.
We have silos.

Yes.
You know, and we don't
expect the rain to fall

in precisely
the amount needed for you
to shower tomorrow morning.

You know,
we have reservoirs.
Yes.

We don't do that for energy,
for electricity at least,

because it's super,
super, super expensive.

But there are
a lot of people
working on this.

On that topic, I presume
at this point you have been
to California ISO?

Umm, no, I...
You followed
the powerlines, right?

No, I did.
I followed the power.

If you've been thinking
about this topic for this long,

this is the traffic cop
of the grid.

We need some system
to be able to make sure

that stuff comes on
and comes off

without wrecking everything.

That's what Cal ISO does.

Everyday in America,

hundreds of millions
of dollars worth of electricity

is made, sold, sent and used

through the use
of transmission lines

and relay stations,
otherwise known
as the power grid.

The California
Independent Systems Operator,

or Cal ISO,
is one of five US entities

created to make sure
these grids

run well 24-7,
365 days a year.

This is where California

electricity all comes
together

and sings, right?
That's right.

That's right.

The grid started
over a hundred years ago.

It started small
and it became bigger.

As it became bigger,
someone had to manage it.

But now we've
found that the scale is
even more important.

We have more renewables
on the grid.

And that's really what
we're grappling with.

As we transition this grid

from one that's got
traditional power plants on it

to one that's
renewable based,

it may have a few
traditional power plants
to take care of things...

for instance,
when the wind's not blowing
and the sun's not shining.

Yeah.
Storage is also going to play
an important part of this too.

You can't shape solar,
you can't shape wind

exactly like you can
a traditional power plant,

but you can supplement it
with storage.

Big sets of batteries
could be used on the system.

Compressed air
can be used for storage.

As renewables
go on the grid,

we have
to open our mind

to how we knit it together.

It's not your parents'
or grandparents' grid anymore.

Right.
As a matter of fact,
several times this Spring,

we had up to 40 percent
of our power was provided
by renewables.

Those kinds of levels
weren't even contemplated
10 years ago.

Really?
Wow, that's amazing.
Yeah.

So this tells me
in a nutshell...

I can tell where
the wind is blowing.

It's down south.

Are you overseen
by federal or state,

or like what's the authority
above the California ISO?

Everybody's got a boss.

In my case, we have
a five-member board.

I think it may make sense
for you to reach out
to one of 'em.

Are you Angelina?
Yes, I am.

Oh great.
Always.

It took me ages
to even find out
about the ISO.

Why does it seem
so little known?
I'm puzzled.

I mean, it's a huge,
huge organization.

It means we're doing
a good job!

The grid is
operating well.

There's no outages,

and you don't
know that the grid
is there.

I detect an accent.

- I was born in Bulgaria.
- Oh.

I became interested
in energy early on.

I had the fortune
of living in Africa

when I was very young,
grew up with very
little electricity

or very unreliable electricity
where there was electricity.

We returned
back to Bulgaria.

That was another
interesting perception

in terms of energy
and how energy can
form your future.

There was
the Chernobyl accident.

An accident has occurred

at the Chernobyl
atomic power plant

as one of the atomic reactors
was damaged.

One of the things you hear
about the argument for nuclear

is people say, "Well,
look, we've got to get
a lot more energy"

"out into the world in order
to meet the demands of...

"of humanity,
and we're never
going to get

that amount of energy created
unless we go nuclear."

I have a very different
point of view.

We don't need to be
recreating nuclear energy
down here on Earth.

We already have the sun.

We have plenty
of nuclear energy

hitting the Earth
every single day.

If we were able to capture
the solar insulation

that hits the globe
every single day,

just for two minutes,
and store it,

we could power
the whole globe
for a year,

even the billion people
who have no electricity
right now.

How do we work
to get to 50, 60, 70, 80,

even 100 percent renewable

into the future
and what that time frame
would be?

We believe that the ISOs
are going to be major players
in making that a reality.

Finally, I was seeing how
it could all come together,

but I had forgotten
about one little thing:

politics.

It's no secret
that folks here
in our valley

are fuming over
the latest change
with solar rates.

They feel cheated after making

an investment in solar energy.

And today, hundreds
of those people

made a very clear point
about it.

The original decision
calls for an increased
service charge

for rooftop solar users,
as well as a reduction

in the amount of money
homeowners are reimbursed

for excess power produced
by their solar arrays.

Right now,
people who generate
solar energy

get reimbursed by NV Energy
for what they don't use

at about 11 cents
a kilowatt hour.

That could go down
as far as four cents
a kilowatt hour.

I'm here to speak on behalf

of 31,650 petitioners

who are petitioning
the Commission

to retain the current
rate structure.

We want solar!

We want solar!

Raise your hand
if you have rooftop solar.

Raise your hand
if you're here

as part
of an environmental
organization.

We have paid money
in order to do what
they wanted us to do,

and that was
to go alternative energy
and go rooftop solar.

When are folks
in here afraid

this is going to start hitting
their pocketbooks directly?

Right away.
It already has.

It's not the basic fee
that we care about.

It's the net metering fee.

It's what we get
for producing them power.

I spent $48,000
of my own money

on a solar power system,
no subsidies.

And we got
the PUC three stooges...

not elected but appointed
by the governor...

that are deciding the fate
for the entire state.

They're basically
ripping us off.

I think it's...
this is grand theft
in my opinion.

17,255 people have had
their systems commissioned.

If you give them each
three minutes

and you allow a half a minute
for them to switch seats,

that's 60,000 minutes,
1,000 hours, 25 weeks

where you would have
to listen to people who really
don't like what you're doing.

I don't know whether this
is cowardice or convenience,

but frankly,
it's not leadership.

They're not going
to be able to sell these homes.

With all these tariffs
and rate increases
that are going on,

nobody's going to want to buy
their homes for 20 years,

so they're stuck
with these homes.

With these actions,
hundreds of jobs are lost.

I don't know
how many thousands
of dollars these people...

millions of dollars
these people...

all of that is done
with your actions.

There's a big plaque that says
this is a green energy building,

and you have
special parking
for hybrid cars.

You are hypocrites!
This is hypocritical!

Yeah, Mark!
Hello, Commissioners.

My name is Mark Ruffalo,
and I'm... I'm coming
from New York State

as a advocate for solar.

It's a shame that
you are on that screen
and not here today

because outside
of this building...

and you should really feel
the energy here...

there's a thousand
workers out there.

You are the Public
Utility Commission.

Public! That's first.

And the actions
you're taking today

are taking
from the mouths
of the people

and giving it
to a single monopoly utility.

Well, I take offence
and I'll take notice

to all of the comments about

"We don't know
what we're doing.
We didn't do our homework."

This commission
has been working tirelessly

not to penalize people
or favour one technology
over the other,

but to create a path forward
for rooftop solar in this state

that treats
all rate payers fairly.

Thank you.
That concludes
my questions.

Commissioner Berkshaw,
do you have any?

I don't.
Hearing
no additional questions,

Commissioner Noble,
do you have a motion?

I would move
that we deny the motions

and issue
the order as memorialized
in the proposed order

along with the changes
that were discussed today.

- Do I have a second?
- Second.

- All those in favour say, "Aye."
- Aye.

The motion carries.

And that brings us
to agenda item 3A.

Just about five,
10 minutes ago,

the PUC voted to uphold

the solar rate hike

they had previously passed.

This after opponents came out
en masse today.

We want solar!

Well,
the verdict was in,

and 20,000 existing
solar customers

in Nevada were
officially screwed.

It seemed like people were
too disappointed to say much.

Except for one woman,
Debbie Dooley,

founder of the politically
conservative Green Tea Party.

From state to state to state,

I hear the same talking points.

"Non-solar users
are subsidizing solar users."

That is totally ridiculous.
I'm a conservative.

I'm appalled
that fellow conservatives

are hypocrites when it comes
to free market principles.

They're willing
to throw principles
out the window

for the sake of protecting
their financial donors.

We've always led,
but on energy we're
falling behind,

because a lot of people
are still entrenched

in the technologies of the past
that pollute the Earth.

For more than a century,

Nevada Energy
has been Nevada's
only utility provider.

In fact, Nevada's
state constitution
grants Nevada Energy

the right to operate
as a monopoly.

By providing
consumers a way to make
their own clean power,

the rooftop solar industry
had found a way to compete,
in spite of that.

Yet the commission's
recent ruling

seemed specifically
designed to bring

the rooftop solar industry
to a screeching halt.

Of your fleet
that was here prior

to this announcement
by the PUC...

is this your full fleet?

This is our full fleet.
This is every single
truck we have,

and the reason
that they're all here

on a Wednesday
at 3:00 p.m.

is that we're not
doing any installs.

Everything has
completely shut down.

This is
where we handle our permits,
schedule our installations.

And here is actually
where you can see where
our culture was.

These are the faces
of the 6,000 people

who have lost their jobs.

I've personally been part
of training over 150 people,

and now,
I mean, this is it.

If you have a mortgage,
a wife and children...

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
...you don't just pack up
and say, "Let's go."

The company
wants me to look at options
for relocating.

I have kids.
I... It's... I...

My daughter doesn't want
to move again.

I don't know
what I'm gonna do.
I don't know.

I'm telling you, when you see
up close and personal...

the human toll...

that bureaucratic
and corporate chess playing

takes on individuals,
it makes me really mad.

This is yet
another example of...

the interest of the mighty
against the interest
of the many.

And that's...
that's upsetting to me.

Because you know what?
Those kinds of situations

don't change
without amendments...

without congressional action,

without Supreme Court
victories.

You can't innovate
your way out of the bullshit
that I witnessed today.

It's going to take... a fight.

It's just too bad.

What if we all still burned
whale oil to light our homes?

What if the whaling industry
had used its money and power

to bury
Thomas Edison's light bulb?

Well, that didn't happen.

The light bulb was
just a better product.

Today we use electricity
much the way we did

when Thomas Edison
invented the electrical grid
over a century ago.

And many powerful
and profitable fossil fuel
and utility companies

are fighting to keep things
just as they are.

And after what I saw in Nevada,

it seemed like
it would be unwise
to bet against them.

But then again,
I've never been
very good at betting.

New at 6:00,
solar companies
and solar customers

are watching the state capital

this week as they debate

the future of a number

of green energy bills.

Bill 405 would bring back
those net metering credits

to 95 percent of what
they were when the industry
was at its peak.

So just last week,

I bumped
into one of my advisers.

He was like, "Jamie,
have you been following
what's going on in Nevada?"

And I was like,
"Oh God, no. Now what?"

And he was like,
"No, no, no, no, no.

"All these bills are going

"through both the Senate
and the Assembly in Nevada.

All these
pro-clean-energy bills."

Needless to say,
I'm... I'm blown away

to the point
of almost confused,

because this is
a 180-degree shift

since... last year.

Assembly Bill 405
really brings back

the net metering
and rooftop solar industry.

What it does is it...
Now is the time to do it.

It's a fantastic day.
It really is
a fantastic day.

It feels so great
to be coming and speaking,

and going,
and coming and coming,

and then to finally have
things to celebrate.

Give yourselves
a big round of applause.

Thank you all
for being here.

Good morning, today is

a historic milestone
for the Silver State.

The Nevada legislature passed

the solar triple crown
of energy bills:

AB206, SB392, AB405.

The last week, there's been
a tremendous activity

in the Nevada legislature

with renewable
energy bills.
Mm-hmm.

Could you walk me
through that

from your
point of view?

I started the first
net metering company

here in the state
almost 20 years ago.

I got very familiar
with how the process works

with the public
utilities commission
and this legislature.

And when I saw
what happened,

I had moved on and been
working in the utility world

and been doing things like that.

But I... I dropped
everything and...

and decided to run
for office, because it...

I felt that
it needed to be fixed
in the legislature.

And so Assembly Bill 405,

which was one of the bills
I worked on,

it is a net metering
rooftop solar bill.

And what it did is
it restored some rates,

and it put into place
a renewable energy consumer's
bill of rights.

We passed
that out of the senate,

and we'll send it
to the governor to see
if he can sign it.

We urge Governor Sandoval
to support these measures

and bring renewables
back to the state.

You know recently,
I was in another state,

and introduced myself
as someone from Nevada.

And one of the people
in the group commented,

"What in the world
were you all thinking?"

Referring to the PUC ruling
in December.

And I said to them
at that time,

"We're going
to go back in 2017,

and we're going to fix it."
And guess what?

We came back in 2017,
and we fixed it.

We have more sunshine in Nevada
than they have heat in Hell.

And it's a sin
if we don't do
something with it.

I mean, really?
We do...

320-some days
of sunshine.

So was there
a public outcry

after the utility
commission decision?

I mean, does the average Nevadan
even know about any of this?

Here's what I will say.
In talking to my constituents,

there's one issue...
one issue that was present,

every door
that I knocked on.

'Cause that's how I...
I ask people for their vote.
I go to them.

Every door I knocked on,
every one of them... energy.

"Why don't we have solar?"

There are more people
who are concerned

about what we're
leaving to our children
and our grandchildren.

There are more people
who are concerned

about the economic disadvantage
of being on the grid.

And the more
that happens

and as the adoption
rate increases,

more people say,
"I want it."

Expanding investments
in renewable energy,

Nevada has the potential
to bring billions of dollars

to the state's economy
and create tens of thousands
of additional jobs by 2030.

I think that our state
is uniquely positioned

to take advantage
of renewable energy.

I mean, just the amount
of land we have,

the amount of sunshine
we have,

the resources,
the transmission...

I mean, we are
in a great position to take
advantage of those things.

So when you start
making the argument
that it's an economic model,

that shifts the conversation
to where a lot more...

maybe traditional Republicans
can certainly get on board.

Have you seen evidence
of this growth in renewables

being very real here
in Nevada in terms
of economic activity?

We'll have the most
electrified highway system
in the nation here shortly.

Meaning that
you will not have to worry

about where you can
plug in your vehicle,

if it's an electric vehicle,
from... from here

to all through the rurals,
all the way to Las Vegas.

And that's in partnership
with Tesla,

it's in partnership
with other folks.

And I think at this point
in the game,

markets are driving us and...
and companies are demanding

the need for renewables.
They want to be green.

The session ended
at midnight last night,

and I see in Reuters,
in Forbes, and in some
industry mags, um,

Tesla, and Sunrun,
and others are hiring

and have announced
that they're back in Nevada
and they're doing business.

And so that is...
as a legislator,

as a Nevadan
and a business person,

I can't think
of a better outcome.

It's time for Governor Sandoval
to sign the solar triple crown
of solar bills.

Let's reclaim
Nevada's rightful place
as a clean energy powerhouse.

Let's go see a governor
about a signature.

Two weeks ago, did you think
you'd be standing here today
with this result?

This is the product
of a lot of hard work
and a lot of sacrifice.

In 2015 when
the PUC decision
came down,

a lot of businesses
had to lay off employees

in the timespan
between Christmas
and New Year's.

These were beloved employees.
They were part of a family.

And today,
we just made that right.

We just undid
all of that damage,

and made Nevada
a clean energy leader again.

It's overwhelming how much
support that there is

for a clean energy economy

amongst very diverse
segments of Nevada.

The forces that
are fighting against it,

they're grasping
to an old way of doing business

when most other businesses
and most other Nevadans...

and I think it's true
across our country...

they want to move forward
with this.

We're here to deliver letters
to Governor Sandoval.

It's 7,000 letters
and signatures.

Nevadans want clean energy,
and we just wanted to go ahead
and let him know.

It is a moral imperative.

Everyone, wherever you are,

whatever your status
or station in life is,

we all have a responsibility
to address this issue.

And if Washington
will not...

we will.

You know,
I've been thinking back
on that climate march,

all the people hoping
for action,

and I wish they knew
what I've learned...

that this is the dawn
of the clean energy era.

It's just better,
cheaper, inevitable.

"When is going to happen?"
you might wonder.

Well, as American citizens,
voters, consumers,

that's entirely up to us.

We have what
we need to do this

in our own cities,
our own communities,
our own homes.

It doesn't matter
who you pray to,

who you vote for,
where you live,
or how you live.

There's a good reason
and a good way for you
to connect to clean energy.

Maybe you don't like
driving around on imported oil

or maybe
the unpredictable prices
threaten your bottom line.

When the pipelines leak
and the gas lines explode,

it always seems to happen
in our struggling communities,

and maybe you've seen
that happen in yours.

Or maybe
you accept the science
of climate change.

And maybe you know
that burning fossil fuels

sickens over two-million
Americans a year

with our children
taking the biggest hit.

Or hey, maybe you just like
the latest technology.

You see, there's
a story for everyone,

a story that will make you
want do something,

and the sooner that happens,
the better, for all of us.
