For more than a century, the interplay between private, investor-owned electric utilities and government regulators has shaped the electric power industry in the United States. Provision of an essential service to largely dependent consumers invited government oversight and ever more sophisticated market intervention. The industry has sought to manage, coopt, and profit from government regulation. In The Power Brokers, Jeremiah Lambert maps this complex interaction from the late 19th century to the present day.

In the year 1881, in boom town Telluride, Colorado, no one seemed more out of place than impeccably dressed, 5'1, 115 pound, L.L.Nunn. He had walked to Telluride from Durango with a small amount of cash, his cloths on his back and big dreams. Within 10 years, L.L. Nunn would put Telluride on a world-wide map with the success of the Ames Power Plant. In this short eBook, about a 10 minute read, learn how Nunn, George Westinghouse, Nikola Tesla and a host of "Pinheads" built the first successful AC, alternating current, power plant in the world.

The Purpose of this Book The purpose of this book is to bridge the gap, the gulf, which spans the believers in “free energy” and the engineers and scientists who don’t believe in it. Scientists and engineers have the knowledge to understand the theory behind free energy, but they also have the programming they’ve been given during their formal education to not believe that their knowledge can cover the subject of free energy in its defense. On the other hand, the supporters of free energy are not trained in the theory and knowledge of free energy, so all they want to do is build ...

Wind is freedom. Wind is abundant. Air flow is the symbol of happiness. I've always imagined sitting in the fresh air while reading or writing and doing something productive. I never figured out how to do so until I tried to convert a PC fan into a small wind turbine.
