Baker push for hydropower a boost for N.E.
To the editor:
I read with interest your recent story on hydropower (Aug. 3, Critics: Baker hydropower bill could harm energy market). Contrary to what was said in your story about hydropower and clean energy's impact on the marketplace, the use of hydropower and wind energy will help our region's power users and will help meet climate change goals. Even more important, the combination of new onshore wind energy, backed up with hydropower for when the wind doesn't blow, is a clean energy “two-fer” that would be a boost to our region.
We commend the Baker administration for moving the clean energy discussion along and we look forward to competing in the new requests for clean power in a way that will be cost-effective for the region's electricity users while reducing the greenhouse gases our power produces.
