News: David Carr quoted by AP

August 22, 2008

AEI’s David Carr was quoted in an AP article about New York mayor Michael Bloomberg’s turbine ideas for NYC. Here’s a quote:

Mayor Michael Bloomberg is backing off his suggestion to put windmills on city bridges and rooftops after newspapers mocked the idea with photo illustrations of turbines on the Brooklyn Bridge and the Empire State Building.

Bloomberg made these comments at the National Clean Energy Summit in Las Vegas.

David Carr, of the Alternative Energy Institute, in Canyon, Texas, said mounting turbines high above the city is “not very feasible.”

“If you want it for art and decoration, that’s fine, but for achieving any kind of power that’s useful, it’s not a very good idea, and I don’t know of anywhere that’s done it very successfully,” Carr said.
