Hudson Valley could become “Solar Valley,” with proliferation of solar technology industries (NY)
http://www.midhudsonnews.com/News/2010/May/08/SpectraWatt_GO-08May10.html

EAST FISHKILL – SpectraWatt, a solar panel manufacturer at the Hudson Valley Research Park in East Fishkill, officially opened Friday to accolades from state and local officials.

Congressman John Hall said the company will be part of a new branding for the Hudson Valley.

“Together with this facility and the Solar Energy Consortium in Kingston, we have the potential of turning the Hudson Valley into the equivalent of Silicon Valley, California only it would be Solar Valley,” he said.

Dutchess County Executive William Steinhaus said the continued growth of business in the county is multi-faceted, and that is important.

2. Original "High Tech Valley"
The Duchess County portion of the Mid-Hudson Valley (esp. East Fishkill and Poughkeepsie) was America's original "High Tech" center. I am glad to see it making a come back.
