New CA legislation will require more renewable energy
« on: March 31, 2011, 04:06:13 AM »

An article in my newspaper titled "Raising the bar on clean energy" by Dana Hull, reports that California's state legislature yesterday approved a new law that will require the state's utilities to obtain 33% of their power from renewal resources by 2020. The law is expected to be signed by Governor (Moonbeam) Brown.

Currently the state's three largest utility companies obtain 18% of their electricity from wind farms, solar power plants, geothermal and biomass facilities. Critics claim that the law will drive up the cost of electrical power in the state.
