On April 17, the Clean Energy Community and Climate Advocaties will hold a press conference to encourage Minnesota legislators to remove radical recovery to the progress of renewable energy included in the Current senate energy Omnibus Bill. Speakers will bring threats to solar energy, net measurement and environmental protection to the attention and business carve-outs will evoke-as they benefit Amazon Data Centers-this the carbon-free goals of Minnesota.
The proposed energy Omnibus Bill wants to reverse the long -term monumental policy and progress Minnesota in 2023 to a carbon -free energy seeker. The bill contains provisions that would be:
- Undermine the 100% carbon -free against 2040 law by incorrectly classifying as “carbon -free” by polluting energy sources such as B100 biodiesel and woody biomass as “carbon -free”
- Retin Minnesota’s Community Solar Garden Program, the most successful and fair clean energy tool of the state
- Weak the net measurement in the countryside of Minnesota in the countryside and undermine a fair compensation for solar producers who have been in force since 1983 and threatening threatening jobs of clean energy
- Eliminate the renewable developmental account, an essential source of financing for innovation of clean energy, including the Solar*REWARDS program that helped to have a low-income homeowners on solar energy
- Release large data centers such as Amazon from important environmental reviews, including Back -Up Dieselgenerator Supervision
- Remove the limitations of the size on Hydro projects, so that similarities are ignored with indigenous communities aimed at protecting land, rivers and ecosystems
Proponents will encourage legislators to reject the harmful provisions that reverse the climate of the state and the progress of the clean energy. Speakers include environmental leaders, customers of solar energy, proponents of the countryside and others who drift back against the return of the beautiful energy progress of Minnesota. The rally is held at 11 am CT in the state of Capitol Press Room B971.
