Despite current
Supreme Court developments, many states are moving forward with plans to
reduce carbon pollution from the power sector under the Environmental
Protection Agency’s Clean Power Plan.
The Clean Power
Plan, which has a strong legal and technical foundation, sets the first
ever federal limits on carbon pollution from power plants. Under the
plan, states have the flexibility to create customized, cost-effective
solutions and invest in clean energy sources, like wind and solar. From
Tennessee to Indiana, states across the nation will continue forging
ahead toward a cleaner, safer future that will create jobs and cut
pollution.
Smart states are betting on the
Clean Power Plan, and many utilities are following suit. They are doing
so because investments in energy efficiency and renewable energy make
smart economic sense.
Right now, New Hampshire has the
opportunity to become a clean energy leader and create solutions that
benefit our communities and our economy. I urge our state’s leaders to
make the right choice by implementing the Clean Power Plan without
delay.
