Currently there are discussions revolving around an acceptable technology resource mix. Advanced Energy and the state's electric utilities filed a set of proposals with the North Carolina Utilities Commission May 31, 2002 seeking approval to give electric customers the option to pay a small monthly premium to ensure that part of their electric power is generated from resources that are renewable and cleaner than traditional ones, such as coal. The NC GreenPower program would be designed to boost the production of "green power" - electric power generated from renewable sources of electricity, such as wind, solar energy, water and biomass - by creating a market and an incentive for companies to develop and sell it. Current market conditions make it too expensive for companies to profitably develop and sell such alternative sources of electricity. "With this NC GreenPower plan, we have an opportunity to help meet our state's present and future energy needs in sustainable ways," said Larry Shirley, director of the State Energy Office and a member of the NC GreenPower advisory committee. The State Energy Office supports and promotes energy efficiency programs and renewable energy technologies and has a key role in the development of NC GreenPower. Under Advanced Energy's NC GreenPower plan, electric customers could elect to pay an extra $4 a month for blocks of electricity produced from renewable resources. The electric utilities, under special "tariffs" (applications for green power rates), would agree to purchase that amount of electricity from N.C. companies that produce electricity from renewable resources. The voluntary premiums collected from NC GreenPower consumers would be used to offset the higher costs of developing and producing such power. Advanced Energy would disburse the funds using a formula designed to promote facilities that produce power using new and cleaner technologies, such as solar, wind and various forms of biomass generation. It also would help keep some current producers - mostly hydroelectric energy producers - in business. The state currently has minimal sources of solar and wind power, two of the most desirable for long-term use. The NC GreenPower program would focus, in particular, on promoting the development and use of these renewable resources. The Utilities Commission will receive public comments on the plan and tariffs before deciding whether to approve them. The NC GreenPower program could launch within six months of approval. If NC GreenPower is approved, North Carolina will become the first state in the nation to offer a statewide green pricing program, available to all electric consumers with participation from all of the state's electric utilities - Carolina Power & Light (CP&L), Duke Power, and Dominion North Carolina Power. Some ElectriCities and North Carolina electric cooperatives will also participate. The proposal culminates more than a year of work by a broad spectrum of stakeholders invited by Advanced Energy to help craft a green power pricing plan. Last year, the Utilities Commission asked Advanced Energy to develop and implement such a program. Advanced Energy formed an advisory committee of environmentalists and other consumer advocates, electric utilities, green power suppliers, state regulatory staff, the State Energy Office, the State Attorney General's office, and energy scientists to develop the proposal. Committee members represented widely divergent views on how the state should proceed with the program. The final proposal represents what most agree would be an important first step toward achieving the goal of generating significant renewable energy for the state. Once the program is approved, the committee will help market it and continue advising on its implementation. Advanced Energy will form a separate nonprofit entity named NC GreenPower; it will be governed by a board of directors and will administer the program.

On Thursday, June 20, Governor Easley signed S1078, also known as the "Clean Smokestacks" bill. http://www.ncga.state.nc.us The legislation requires the 14 coal fired power plants in the state to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide by more than 70 percent. NOx emissions will fall from 245,000 tons in 1998 to 60,000 tons in 2007 and 56,000 tons by 2009. SO2 emissions will fall from 489,000 tons in 1998 to 250,000 tons in 2009 and 130,000 tons by 2013. The utilities that own these plants, Duke and Progress Energy/CP&L, will cap their rates for five years during which time they will collect at least 70 percent of the capital improvement costs. (Other items are coming out of the rate base.) After five years, an evaluation will determine the extent of over billing or under charging to date. With the 13th worst air quality in the country, this is good news for all Triangle residents. It is especially good news for the asthma and other respiratory sufferers among us. Many thanks to the multiple groups that have worked long and hard to push through this agreement.
