What makes ASBE different, Is that it takes advantage of the unused portion of most major highways, the meridian. allowing the creation of two new lanes of road travel, under the umbrella of the overhead rail system, additionally providing the infrastructure for the transmission lines just below the rail platform, at the same time the infrastructure above the tracks for wind and solar. The renewable energy will be used at the point of generation with excess fed into the grid. The Grid provides the back up, with additional stand by, with our mobile sub stations. This shovel ready project will begin 12-21-09. As part of National Emergency Security System our substations can be moved to regions affected by natural disasters or terrorism without disruption to the main system. The estimated 1.5 million direct work force is not just a regional opportunity, its national, we do not count the hundreds thousands of people employed in manufacturing of electric trains, electric cars, the building material, heavy equipment, transport and electrical supply’s and suppliers While the cost may seem high at 210 billion, its all going into America’s economy, but in fact will be financed in very unique ways. Everything involved can not and will not be divulged at this time.

The Triple T network is the driving force for ASBE and the American Energy Revolution
