38: Renewable Energy
Encourage the cost-effective development of renewable energy. Other Information:
We encourage the cost-effective development of renewable energy, but the taxpayers should not serve as venture capitalists
for risky endeavors. It is important to create a pathway toward a market-based approach for renewable energy sources and to
aggressively develop alternative sources for electricity generation such as wind, hydro, solar, biomass, geothermal, and tidal
energy. Partnerships between traditional energy industries and emerging renewable industries can be a central component in
meeting the nation’s long-term needs. Alternative forms of energy are part of our action agenda to power the homes and workplaces
of the nation.
