Saul Griffith Quotes

China has an almost infinite need for energy, and frankly, the world would be better off if much of that need goes in the direction of wind power.

We’re not going to run out of wind.

We need to bring sustainable energy to every corner of the globe with technologies like solar energy mini-grids, solar powered lights, and wind turbines.

Rock stars get room keys, I get business cards. Wherever I go I meet innovators of wind power equipment, solar energy operators.

The idea that the growing demand for energy worldwide can be met with energy from nuclear power is nonsense.

You can power the entire U.S. vehicle fleet with 73,000 to 145,000 five-megawatt wind turbines. That would take between one and three square kilometers of footprint on the ground.

Windmills installed around the world converting their direct current into alternating current and feeding the electric energy into the world network can harvest the planet Earth's prime daily energy income source-the wind--and adequately supply all the world's energy needs

I would like nuclear fusion to become a practical power source. It would provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, without pollution or global warming.

Solar power is going to be absolutely essential to meeting growing energy demands while staving off climate change.

Nuclear power will help provide the electricity that our growing economy needs without increasing emissions. This is truly an environmentally responsible source of energy.

For example, in my own State of Arizona, an Israeli scientist is working with an Arizona company on a demonstration project involving a very fast-growing algae which can be used to power a biomass energy plan.

Tribes have the potential to provide almost 15 percent of the country's electricity with wind power, and have 4.5 times the solar resources to power the entire U.S.

Try everything. Do everything. Nuclear. Biomass. Coal. Solar. You name it. I support them all.

Feeding our energy appetite is top of mind for many people these days.

One of the best things that came out of the Carter administration was the energy policy. The best things in it were renewable energy.

Solar power will solve all our problems. How much money have we blown on that? This is the hippies' program from the seventies and they're still pushing this stuff.

Nearly one third of Japan would have had to evacuate from their communities…. I came to believe that we should halt further operations of nuclear energy that entail such huge risks…. Japan can supply its energy needs without nuclear power

I strongly support an 'all-of-the-above' energy policy that includes additional development of wind, clean coal, and bio-fuels.

I look at what we have - our traditional natural resource base - as helping move us to that cleaner, more diverse energy supply.

Solar energy is bound to be in our future. There's a kind of inevitability about it.

I think the likelihood that combustion will continue to represent the large portion of the power unit world is very small.

Americans are in need of an all-of-the-above energy approach, and when you think about all-of-the-above, you think about wind, solar, hydrogen, think about all those groovy technologies I really like.

Wind energy can and will play one of the most important roles in saving the world of tomorrow, today.

Some challenges remain, but the bottom line is that low-carbon options can and should play a much greater role in energy supply.

Who needs Russian gas if we could get all the heat we need from our own surplus? Who needs Middle Eastern oil, when we can integrate limitless renewable sources in our smart grids?
