The more you follow renewable energy, the more exciting it gets.
There was a whole whack of important and groundbreaking news this week; but, maybe none as influential as the U.S. federal government's approval of Cape Wind, the country's first offshore wind farm.

How much do you know about Rutabagas, the Hecate Strait, Taiwan, the smart charging system, or "green" beer?
We're betting you are going to know a lot more about all these things and how they fit into renewable energy after you see what EnergyBoom has been upto this week.
So, let's jump right in.
