Goal #1: Legislation

The strength of America's manufacturing sector can be renewed through the development of new energy technologies. But if we're to compete in this global marketplace, we need federal tax policies that support investment, innovation and energy independence.

Establish a broad federal legislative and regulatory package, designed to encourage the rapid growth of a viable renewable energy industry and to encourage consumer adoption.

Energy security legislation should include:

  • Permanent Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credit
  • Renewable Electricity Standards
  • Federal Interconnection and Net Metering Standards
  • Renewable Energy Payments (Feed-in Tariffs)
