Thanks for the comments.

Of course Oil Shale production would be a huge benefit to the state of Colorado and Shell at the very least.

But the use of water is certainly a huge issue, as well.

This will add severely to the climate change and pollution as it will bring “centuries stored” CO2 in the atmosphere.
The only valid reason could be the dependency of the US on öld” fossil fuel. But the high water and energy consumption will prevent this solution to become succesful. Watersources are running out in large parts of teh USA.
Your part 1 thru 4 has some environmental better solutions

With all of the technology in the world why is it that major oil companies and auto makers, hide the fact that a very simple add on that requires no engine modifaction ,a hydrogen fuel cell ,improves gas mileage from 35 to 50 % ?

Comment on OptiSolar Building Solar Farm In California by John Kerastas

I applaud OptiSolar for aggressively developing these projects. The impending OPA rule changes, however, will make it much more difficult for other developers. I am interested in meeting/contacting solar power developers impacted by the rule changes.
