Eco Factor: Colorado-based solar farm owner doing his bit for the environment by offering free car recharges.
The future of our planet seems bright and cool whenever we see somebody doing his extra bit for the environment. Colorado-based Jim Duke, a person who spent $84,600 for a solar farm, is not only powering his cars with the energy gained from the sun, but is offering the same to all other who pass by his farm and that too without charging them a single penny for the green electricity. Jim’s solar farm is able to produce 15MW of solar electricity annually, which he uses to keep his house off grid and power electric cars.
Jim’s eco-efforts have made him eligible for nearly $51,000 in federal, state, local and power company credits, but the eco-minded individual thinks that it’s not the time to think about money, it’s time to take some action, and he has already started doing his bit in all possible ways.
The Dark Side:
The efforts put in by Jim Duke are highly commendable. We don’t think it’s proper to analyze his efforts critically.
