Craig, our Energy Policy Watch Dog, found this new interesting topic for our weekly POLICY WATCH…
Legislation has been proposed in the U.S. Senate that will require states to receive at least 25% of their electricity from renewable energy. There are currently Renewable Energy Standards (RES; also known as Renewable Portfolio Standards, RPS) in 30 states. Requiring all states to shift up to 25% of their energy generation to cleaner technologies will have a profound impact on how we use electricity in the United States. Do you think this will have a net positive or negative impact on our domestic economy? What could this mean for businesses and taxpayers?
