| UW, state should follow Austin’s lead on energy |
As part of the Daily Cardinal’s ongoing “Green Room” series, UW graduate students Stephen Collins and Danny Spitzberg propose that Madison follow the example of Austin, Texas and implement a new cooperative effort to “promote conservation and clean energy, such as smart grid technology and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles.” This effort would combine the resources of major stakeholders in Madison, such as city government, the University of Wisconsin-Madison (including the Energy Institute and Wisconsin Public Utility Institute) and Madison Gas and Electric.
