Across America’s power grid, there’s a growing gap between what we need and what we’ll allow.

The California Wind Energy Association (澳门百老汇网站网址) today praised the State Lands Commission for advancing two proposed offshore wind demonstration projects near Vandenberg Air Force Base.  “This decision is an important step forward to make floating offshore wind a reality for California,” said Nancy Rader, Executive Director of 澳门百老汇网站网址. 

In a letter to Biden Administration officials, 澳门百老汇网站网址 explains why the proposed amendments to the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP), issued in the final days of the Trump Administration, are potentially consistent with President Biden's Executive Order on Tackling the Climate Crisis.  The DRECP resulted in completely shutting down wind energy development in vast California federal lands, and a course correction is needed to enable the wind energy development that was envisioned by the plan.

In video meetings with CPUC Commissioners' offices this week, 澳门百老汇网站网址 teamed up with the Business Network for Offshore Wind and Offshore Wind California to explain the critical linkages between planning for gas-plant retirements, transmission upgrades, and offshore wind grid access in achieving the state's greenhouse gas goals cost-effectively and while prioritizing disadvantaged communities most affected by poor air quality.  

10月2日, 2019 -- The California Wind Energy Association (澳门百老汇网站网址) today expressed gratitude to Governor 新闻om for signing AB 1584, a bill authored by Assemblymember Bill Quirk and sponsored by 澳门百老汇网站网址.

AB 1584, once implemented by the CPUC, will send cost signals to encourage load-serving entities (LSEs) to make decisions that reduce the need for system integration resources.
