Great suggestion Dima Boulad . Maggie, consider narrowing your focus down a bit. Instead of "Any American Prison System" you could research some prisons that are using progressive methods of rehabilitation and target them for proof of concept experiments.
Also be sure to distinguish between private and public prisons to save time. Private prisons may be unlikely to cooperate with reform without legislative pressure.
A great book that provides a global energy solution that aligns with the Venus Project is The Third Industrial Revolution by Jeremy Rifkin. It explains how we could build continentally connected networks of renewable energy generation where each building acts as a node. Highly recommended. https://amzn.to/2klETZG
