Coal and oil are dirty and way old fashioned.
Energy experts say their prices are also going nowhere but up in the years to come.
Nuclear meanwhile is not about to get new fans…
Following the Fukushima meltdown.
Now, after years of being dismissed as a fringe pipe dream from treehuggers…
The concept of clean, renewable Energy is finally being embraced by policymakers.
But there are still some thorny issues involved…
And apparently the shift to renewables will come at a price.

Guests:
Usec. Jay Layug, DOE
Engr. Peter Maniego, Chairman, National Renewable Energy Board
