| "Entrepreneurship in the Energy Sector - Beyond Transportation" Caltech/MIT Enterprise Forum. Oil prices have sent the first energy crunch of the 21st century rippling through the world's fossil fuel-based economy.

As a comprehensive, $2.8 billion program, approved by the California Public Utilities, CSI will provide major incentives for implementing solar power throughout the state.
