Northwest's Energy Needs Can be Met with Efficiency, Saving Money

While I spent yesterday in meetings about Rep. Jules Bailey's EEAST program, which encourages investments in energy retrofitting paid back over time on utility bills, the Northwest Power Planning Council released a report demonstrating that 85% of the Northwest's future energy needs can met through energy efficiency, and the rest with wind and other renewables.  In the long term, such investments will mean lower energy bills for residents and businesses alike.

From today's article in The Oregonian:

"The Northwest can meet 85 percent of its new electricity needs over the next 20 years solely through conservation, and do so at half the cost of building power plants, according to the Northwest Power Planning and Conservation Council."
