SUMMARY:Renewable energy: A viable path forward\, Chaos & Complex Syst
 ems Seminar\, Michael Winokur\, UW Department of Physics
DESCRIPTION:The rate of growth in renewable energy production has gene
 rally exceeded even the most optimistic projections.   This dramatic  
 scenario has been driven by a steady stream of technological advanceme
 nts in combination with a breathtaking reduction in actual the cost of
  the energy production.   Many traditional sources of energy  are beco
 ming economically uncompetitive.  This introductory level talk  will g
 ive a broad overview of the potential sources of renewable energy with
  an emphasis on the recent history of solar and wind energy production
  and likely near-term developments which will further improve device p
 erformance.  Time permitting some of the issues associated with energy
  storage will be discussed.
