Mission Statement At no time in modern history has energy played a more crucial role in the development and well being of nations than at present. The source and nature of energy, the security of supply and the equity of distribution, the environmental impact of its supply and utilization, are all crucial matters to be addressed by suppliers, consumers, governments, industry, academia, and financial institutions. The World Renewable Energy Congress (WREC), is a major recognised forum for networking between these sectors.

Green Schools Market
• California is home to 9,833 public schools and 654 public charter school facilities (2005-2006 data).
• Expenditures by these schools exceed $50 billion annually.
• More than 700,000 men and women are employed by California public schools. All are being encouraged to use, request, or buy environmentally preferable products.
• California will need a projected 27,750 new classrooms by 2011; an average of 5,550 per year, or 15 per day.
• In addition, 38,219 classrooms will need to be modernized by 2011, or 21 per day.
• With the passing of Proposition 1D in California, voters allocated $100 million dollars to help fund the design and construction of energy efficient, healthy school facilities for the California public school system.
• Public school construction and modernization projects already filed with the California Office of Public Construction account for nearly $24 billion over the next five years.
The magnitude of the looming energy and environmental problems is significant enough to warrant consideration of all options, to include revisiting a concept called Space Based Solar Power (SBSP) first invented in the United States almost 40 years ago. The basic idea is very straightforward: place very large solar arrays into continuously and intensely sunlit Earth orbit (1,366 watts/m2), collect gigawatts of electrical energy, electromagnetically beam it to Earth, and receive it on the surface for use either as baseload power via direct connection to the existing electrical grid, conversion into manufactured synthetic hydrocarbon fuels, or as low-intensity broadcast power beamed directly to consumers. A single kilometer-wide band of geosynchronous earth orbit experiences enough solar flux in one year to nearly equal the amount of energy contained within all known recoverable conventional oil reserves on Earth today. This amount of energy indicates that there is enormous potential for energy security, economic development, improved environmental stewardship, advancement of general space faring, and overall national security for those nations who construct and possess a SBSP capability.
