National Public Radio: SkyBuilt's New Innovative Renewable
Solutions
While environmentalists in Maryland
work through government channels to affect change, a small group
of self-described "green" businessmen
in Arlington are taking a different route. They're the owners of
SkyBuilt Power, a company that hopes to become, quote, the "Dell
of Renewable Energy Systems." To find out what that means,
Metro Connection's Sidsel Overgaard joined Vice President Scott
Sklar for a tour of the company's star product: a shipping container
outfitted with solar panels and a windmill. Sklar says it all began
by asking a simple question: why aren't more people using solar
and wind power?
