Sustainable energy solutions have become increasingly crucial in addressing the global energy crisis and reducing the carbon footprint. Wind energy, one of the most promising renewable energy sources, has shown significant potential in various regions around the world. Tomkins Cove, New York, a small town located along the Hudson River, is one such area where wind energy can be effectively harnessed. Based on a wind map from 2010, it is evident that Tomkins Cove has the requisite wind resources to develop a sustainable wind energy infrastructure.
Valued prospective clients. It is with deep regret that we must inform you Roman Engineering will cease marketing heated driveway systems in New York State. The State's leadership is pursuing a new energy code, to be effective only in New York, that will make it very hard to pass the proposed "societal Impact test" of every system. These are the same type of people who earlier took away natural gas as Roman's fuel of choice.
The phrase “cooking with gas” started its life in the 1930s and 1940s as a marketing slogan by the gas industry. But the public, enamored with the benefits of gas cooking, soon adopted it to mean anything that was done really well. Of late, the star power of gas cooking-has dimmed as air quality concerris have made gas stoves a shady suspect. Policy makers have in places banned the technology and much has been written in the press—but is gas cooking really deserving of all that shade?
Upon retirement I decided to study what could be done to restore my hamlet, Tomkins Cove, to financial stability. Just about everyone now knows the storyline; a bunch of businessmen bought, sold, bankrupted and tore down the power plant that represented a major tax payer to the school district and the Tomkins Cove Public Library among others. I started this dissertation on the assumption that we were all caught off guard by the collateral damage of electric utility deregulation. It is now time to pick up the pieces and/or reboot. It takes a wholesome reevaluation of what brought us here and a willingness to try some new approaches to restore order in Tomkins Cove.
Myself and all of Roman Engineering mourn the loss of Henry. I first met him in 1977 at Lovett Plant. His entire work experience was involved with the energy business, having switched to the gas department at the appropriate time. Read more.
