Resource Assessment
NWCC advises the Utility Wind
Interest Group and the U.S. Department of Energy on wind resource assessment for their
Utility Wind Resource Assessment Program, Utility Value Analysis Program, and Prospective
Forecasting Work.
State Policy Options
Major changes are sweeping across the electric utility
industry nationwide. As the entire structure of the industry is being reevaluated, state
lawmakers and regulators are revisiting the policies that have historically spurred
renewable energy development. Decisions being made now to restructure the electricity
industry constitute a window of opportunity for legislators and regulators to incorporate
policies and market rules that support renewable energy policies.
