Box 2359, Honolulu, Hawaii 96804 Fax: (808) 586-2377 Web site: www.hawaii.gov/dbedt Statement of REVISED 3/20/12 RICHARD C. LIM Director Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism before the SENATE COMMITTEE ON ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT Tuesday, March 20, 2012 2:50PM State Capitol, Senate Conference Room 225 in consideration of HB2417 HD 2 Proposed SDI RELATING TO RENEWABLE ENERGY. Chair Gabbard, Vice English, and Members of the Committee. The Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism (DBEDT) opposes HB2417 Proposed SD 1, which removes the Renewable Energy Technology System Tax Credit cap and changes the incentive structure for utility scale systems to a ten year production credit. DBEDT supports the HD2 version of this measure and requests that version be passed instead. The proposed SD 1 is likely to increase costs to the State and create conditions for a spike in short-term growth that may not be in the best long-term interests of the State. Assuming that solar capacity follows recent trends and doubles to 70 MW in 2012 for non-utility scale projects, and that an additional 67 MW of utility scale projects are completed within the next several years, the proposed SDI would cost the State roughly $597 million.

  • How Does Your State Make Electricity? by NADJA POPOVICH DEC
    How Does Your State Make Electricity? By NADJA POPOVICH DEC. 24, 2018 America isn’t making electricity the way it did two decades ago: Natural gas has edged out coal as the country’s leading generation source … … and renewables like wind and solar have made small yet speedy gains. But, each state has its own story. In Nevada, natural gas surpassed coal as the top source of electricity generation in 2005, earlier than in many other states. Coal’s role in the state’s power mix has continued to decline since then. In Iowa, wind power has taken off over the past decade. It now makes up nearly 40 percent of the electricity produced in the state. But in West Virginia, coal still fuels nearly allelectricity generation. Overall, fossil fuels still dominate electricity generation in the United States. But the shift from coal to natural gas has helped to lower carbon dioxide emissions and other pollution. Last year, coal was the main source of electricity generation for 18 states, down from 32 states in 2001. But experts warn that a shift to natural gas alone won’t be enough to curb emissions and avoid dangerous global warming. “Switching from coal to gas is a fine thing to do in the short run, but it’s not a solution in the longer run,” said Severin Borenstein, Director of the Energy Institute at the University of California, Berkeley’s Haas School of Business. “Gas still produces a lot of greenhouse gases. We can’t stay on gas and solve this problem. Ultimately we’re going to have to go to much lower or zero-carbon sources.” We charted every state’s electricity generation mix between 2001 and 2017 using data from the United States Energy Information Administration.
