Oregon enacted a law requiring the state’s two electric utilities to produce 100 percent “clean energy” by 2040.
The law will boost the state’s utilities reliance on intermittent wind and solar power and require the construction of new transmission lines.
The law sets interim timelines and goal for “clean energy” adoption. Eighty percent of the electricity delivered by Oregon’s two largest utilities will have to come from sources that emit no carbon dioxide during power generation by 2030, 90 percent by 2035, and 100 percent by 2040.
