Sen. Udall Calls for 25% Renewable Energy by 2025

Senator Tom Udall (D-CO) introduced Congress's first Senate bill last week that would establish a 6% renewable energy standard by 2012, gradually increasing to 25% by 2025. The bill's requirements are higher than the draft plan that Sen. Bingaman (D-NM) has shared with the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, which would establish a RES of 20% by 2021.  Udall's targets line up with those of Rep. Markey (D-MA) in the House, who introduced a measure that would also reach 25% renewable by 2025. Read more at E&E (sub'd. req.)
