Power Utility Execs Anticipate Sweeping Changes

Unread postby skiptamali » Wed 28 May 2008, 20:02:44

In an article originally from Matter Network, author Carrie Schluter describes a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers that seems to indicate big changes a comin'.

The annual survey of senior power utility executives shows anticipation of much greater future impact by distributed generation and solar power. In addition, Schluter writes, "Respondents see a carbon emissions cap that creates genuine scarcity in allowances as key to any trading scheme that addresses emissions. They view energy efficiency and energy savings as the responsibility of governments rather than utility companies."

Passing the buck? Time to press government even harder on utility companies?
