texas flag 09Think green tech and immediately Silicon Valley comes to mind.  But the trend is spreading . . . Standard Renewable Energy, based in Houston, just opened an office in San Antonio.  Besides solar and wind products, the firm also sells energy efficiency products, which is smart as we need more of these products and processes now. The state of Texas offers rebates for solar installation . . . whether this could work in San Antonio, one of poorer metropolitan areas in the US, remains to be seen . . . but this is a great step in a state that’s knows for big land, big cars, big houses . . . yeah and big hair.
