The Renewable Energy Siting Partnership (RESP) is a group of scientist, researchers, and stakeholders working together to meet the goal of “to provide technical expertise about the effects renewable energy may have on the people, wildlife and natural resources of Rhode Island.” The project is looking at all forms of renewable energy and how they can be applied in Rhode Island. There are many people a crossed the state involved in the project and I am currently involved in the economic proportion of the RESP working on economic models.
The project was originally scheduled to take place between September 1st, 2011-March 31st, 2012, but has been extended six months, but no extra funding has been supplied. The project was spilt into three phases; the first was Issue Identification and Assessment (September-November 2011), second was Information Synthesis and Communication (December 2011-January 2012) and third is currently going on which is Develop Final Products (February-September 2012).
