Everybody wants cleaner energy – but not everybody is going to be happy about how much clean energy is going to cost them.
Our host, DJ Summers, Director of Policy and Research at the Common Sense Institute, draws on CSI's recent report, The Future of Energy Prices in Colorado, to break down the state's emission reduction laws. These laws mandate zero carbon emissions from the electric sector by 2040, promote increased electrification for buildings, and accelerate the retirement of coal and natural gas plants. Ambitious carbon reduction goals are a noble pursuit, but how much will it cost businesses and consumers? The total numbers are likely to shock you. Find out how much you'll be paying on this episode of Colorado Clarity.
