PG&E Chief’s Green Crusade (Fortune)

PG&E Chairman and CEO Peter Darbee called a handful of journalists into his boardroom and talked about being a successful utility in an era when it's is less about building centralized power plants and more about tapping renewable energy and balancing supply and demand.
Today, Fortune posted a story by reporter Todd Woody in its online edition, based on the PG&E press event.

Darbee talks about the potential of renewable energy, the odds of new nuclear power in California, and the utility industry's resistance to change.

"PG&E chief’s green crusade"

"While a lot of top executives talk green these days, for Darbee green has become the business model, one that represents the future of the utility industry in a carbon-constrained age."
