*Bob Metcalfe "Enernet: Internet Lessons for Solving Energy" (Maxwell Dworkin G115)

Description Bob Metcalfe,
Polaris Venture Partners.

Abstract: Solving energy is a lot about thermodynamics, but more about networking. Many lessons from 63 years of Internet history apply to meeting needs for cheap and clean energy. If the Internet is any guide, we'll end up using not less energy but much more. Promising new sources -- efficiency, coal, oil, gas, wind, geothermal, fission, solar fusion -- will be distributed and networked. Beware Washington. Trust entrepreneurship. And the energy movement's color should be blue.
