Administration produces renewable portfolio standard proposal<\/a><\/p>\n

Two months into the legislative process, the Vermont Department of Public Service weighed in this week with a proposal for the renewable portfolio standard bill that has ping-ponged back and forth in the House Committee on Natural Resources and Energy.<\/span>

The department proposes a goal for the state of 75 percent renewable energy by 2032, including 35 percent \u201cnew renewable\u201d and 10 percent small-scale generation.<\/span>

The committee has seen multiple drafts, some more stringent than others in moving Vermont toward a law that would require utilities to provide a percentage of their electricity portfolio from renewable sources.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Army Issues Draft RFP for $7 Billion in Renewable Energy Contracts <\/a><\/p>\n

On Friday February 24, 2012, the U.S. Army Engineering & Support Center in Huntsville, Alabama issued a draft request for proposals (Solicitation No. W912DY-11-R-0036, the \u201cDraft RFP\u201d) titled \u201cLarge Scale Renewable Energy Production for Federal Installations.\u201d <\/span>

The objective of the solicitation, in its current form, is to procure renewable and alternative energy through power purchase agreements (PPAs) or contractual equivalents for terms of up to 30 years. The government does not want to acquire generation assets, only energy. Projects may be located on or near any federal property located within the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, territories, provinces or other property under the control of the United States. \u201cThe intent is to award contracts to all qualified and responsible offerors, both large and small businesses.\u201d <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
