Hawaii's Parker Ranch is one of the largest cattle ranches in the US, and one of the few that also ranches the sun and wind. Parker ranch uses solar and wind energy for their water pumping systems. We talked with Michael "Corky" Bryan, who has the fascinating title of "Vice President of Livestock". To him, this is just a fancy title for a cowboy. Corky shows us around the solar and wind ranch. If footage is a little shaky at times it is because we did a lot of the talking in his large white pickup truck, of course.

This is the second part of my interview with Dr. Terry Surles about energy on the big island of Hawaii. Terry is the program lead for technology integration and policy analysis at the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute. He previously has held a number of leadership positions in the broad area of energy and environmental systems analysis, research, and development including Vice President for both Environment and Electricity Innovations at the Electric Power Research Institute, and Deputy Secretary for Science and Technology at Cal/EPA. Terry is extremely knowledgeable about the Hawaiian energy situation and provides a great overview of issues facing the Big Island.
