Through the Solar PEIS, the BLM considered whether to establish a new Solar Energy Program to supplement or replace existing policies, and to amend land use plans in the six - state study area to adopt the new Program.

The study area was limited to these six states because they encompass the best solar energy resources suitable for utility - scale development over the next 20 years.

The report synthesizes San Francisco Bay Area - focused findings from research conducted in 2010 — 2012 as part of the state's Vulnerability and Adaptation study sponsored by the California Energy Commission's Public Interest Energy Research (PIER) Program.

Mr. Annan says that while the initial plan of the Programme, which included assessment studies of renewable energy potentials and initiatives to boost investment in the area, was quite ambitious, the number of projects actually funded did not meet early expectations.

Potential career paths include product design, residential design / build, small - scale renewable energy, utility - scale renewable energy, energy policy, as well as further study in related areas.

After excluding urban areas, where residents commonly oppose energy projects, and steep slopes that are unsuitable for construction, the study mapped 282,000 hectares as most compatible.

They cite studies by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory showing that more than enough land is available for solar panels without using any environmentally sensitive areas, population centers or difficult terrain.
