the cost of Solar Cells for Solar Energy utilization has been decreasing over the past years. pretty soon, solar energy would be a more viable alternative than fossil fuels.

It is great that they are trying to create a zero emission city, but I think solar is not the best way to go. Wind power shows much more promise and is much less obtrusive on the environment. Just my thoughts, there might not be that much wind in Florida anyway, I don’t know.

Awesome. A whole city powered by the sun. We need to learn from this project in Florida and build more so we can spare the environment. I can’t wait to see it when its built. Cheers Nigel

Wow! I didn’t think that one whole city can be powered just by solar energy. This is really gonna be amazing. I will certainly keep tabs on the progress of “Babcock Ranch”.

Hopes that this new city materialise and we will see the 1st ever city powered by solar energy.

Sounds fantastic. Great for the community! This is certainly one to watch. If this pilot is successful I am sure many other cities will follow!
