The Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) voted to initiate the formal steps needed to withdraw Arizona Standard and rate of renewable energy (rest). This still marks a setback for the progress of the state in investments in clean energy. The rest rules were adopted in 2006 by a majority of the Republican Commission and require utilities that at least 15% of their electricity will come from renewable energy sources by 2025. This requirement was the key to the progress from Arizona to a clean and modernized grid. Today’s vote (5-0) To initiate the withdrawal of the residual rules, endangers the continuous…
