The federal government has created energy zones in the Southwest U.S., marking a new stride towards greater utilization of solar energy. Last Friday, October, 12, the United States took a significant step when the Obama administration approved a solar energy roadmap for utility-scale solar energy development on public lands. The solar energy roadmap applies to six southwestern states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah.

The plan demonstrates that the government is taking a new approach concerning the development of renewable energy sources.
