Now, we are talking solar. It’s about time, too.
Believe it or not, alternative-energy legislation is popping up throughout the United States. Texas, the big oil producing state, started the trend in March with 50 legislative bills in support of solar energy were introduced. Yes, 50!
Now, Kansas, Utah and New Mexico have introduced legislation for supporting alternative energy.
In New Mexico a key package of legislation was passed that offers incentives to install solar systems to residential and commercial properties.
What started this trend? Obama’s stimulus package funding incentives sparked the need for alternative-energy incentives.
The stimulus package creating new alternative-energy jobs, too. Like in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin attracted 400 new jobs at an alternative-energy plant.
I think this trend in legislation is awesome and it’s about time.
