We need a new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean
energy in our state.
While I support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state
adopt a 33% RPS by 2020, I feel that an RPS of 50% by 2020 is more
reasonable, and such an RPS should be adopted immediately.
Waiting longer increases the impacts from the use of fossil fuels.
Waiting longer will discourage innovators, and innovative
companies, who would like to do this sooner rather than later and
who are looking for confident and bold regulatory signals that
will 'green-light' their potential expansions into the field of
green and clean energy. |
