A bit of review of what Professor Siegel said but still I thought it was interesting. One of the things that the article highlights is the fact that there are not a lot of people or towns there. What I am especially interested in is how those people get electricity. I imagine that their is not a grid there, so I wonder what independent methods the people who live there use. Part of my career interest includes Renewable Energy so I wonder how the wind and sun is and whether or not that is a viable option where power is needed. Look forward to learning more!
