GOOGLE, GE EYE GREEN ENERGY
San Jose Mercury News (CA) - Thursday, September 18, 2008

Google and General Electric announced Wednesday that they would work together to push the development of renewable energy.
The companies said they would team up to lobby the federal government to modernize the electrical grid and collaborate in the development of technologies for plug-in vehicles and geothermal energy.
“We are trying to make renewable energy cheaper than coal energy,” Google co-founder Larry Page said at a news conference Wednesday afternoon.
The partnership was unveiled at Google’s annual Zeitgeist conference, a two-day think-fest where Google’s business partners are invited to Mountain View to discuss global issues with leaders such as former vice president Al Gore and Mexican businessman Carlos Slim, as well as celebrities including Leonardo DiCaprio and Forest Whitaker.
