Abstract:
Progressive policies and abundant resources have secured Colorado’s position in the West as a leader in clean energy investment, generation, and use. Colorado helped pioneer the transition of our regional economy to one powered rapidly and effectively by sustainable energy sources, acting upon Coloradans’ demand that our state government be proactive, protect consumers, stimulate our economy, and preserve our natural resources. Our action on renewable energy over the past four years proves that good economic development practices go hand in hand with good sustainable energy practices.
