Former President George W. Bush will address Windpower 2010, the annual conference of the American Wind Power Association, in Dallas on May 25.
AWEA slipped this announcement quietly into its own blog earlier in the week.
Bush, now a resident of Dallas, helped launch the booming Texas wind power industry as governor in the late ‘90s, and signed a 20% RPS for Texas. But as president he opposed greenhouse gas regulation and any form of national renewable energy standard.
Windpower 2010, scheduled for May 23-26, follows immediately after Solar 2010, the National Solar Conference running in Phoenix, May 17-22.
