USA Today reports that at least nine states (and probably more) are not meeting their renewable portfolio standards. What coulda happened?
USA Today reports that at least nine states (and probably more) are not meeting their renewable portfolio standards. What coulda happened?
In their quest to draw more renewable power, states have come up against obstacles such as the recession, red tape and an outdated transmission system that makes it difficult to move solar or wind power from where it's made to where it's needed.
Some states, including Delaware and New Hampshire, require power companies that don't buy enough renewable energy to make payments to a fund for renewable-energy projects. That allows companies to comply with the rules but doesn't help move a state toward greater reliance on alternative energy.
You know how it goes: government imposes unattainable mandates on business, collects fines as a result, higher costs passed to customers.
Whatta bunch a dolts the utilities are to back this stuff! Good thing we can take our business elsewhere...wait a minute...

That these "capitalists" are cowering in fear shows that they had no huevos to begin with. Sic Semper Tyrannis.
