According to this article, Congress is considering passing legislation that will force power utilities to acquire 20% of their power from renewable sources.
This is good news, I think. The utilities claim that it will raise costs for the utilities; costs which, presumable will be transfered to the consumer. I'm not really worried about this cost - I think it pays for itself. But one thing that was mentioned was that certain parts of the country might be affected more heavily.
Passing legislation like this is wonderful. But should the standards be national, or local?
