Pathway to Prosperity: How the Best State Energy Policies Capitalize on
New Energy Economics
presented by
Glen Andersen, Energy Policy Specialist
National Conference of State Legislatures
Wednesday, April 29 - 7:00 p.m
Hardin Hall, Auditorium 107
University of Nebraska-Lincoln East Campus
The utility industry touches nearly every aspect of our economy and our quality of life. As renewable energy moves to forefront of national attention, state governments must redesign policies and incentives to take advantage of emerging opportunities while ensuring affordable, reliable power. This lecture will focus on the hallmarks of the best state policies to promote comprehensive and integrated renewable energy development.
Glen Andersen has reviewed and evaluated state policy on climate change, energy efficiency and renewable energy for more than 8 years. As staff for the National Conference of State Legislators, he has conducted research and analysis for state legislators across the nation, and facilitated communication between legislators, regulators, industry and advocates on best practices. Mr. Andersen is the author of numerous publications on environmental and energy policy.
With the introduction of LR 83 by the Unicameral's Natural Resources, an interim study to analyze issues relating to expanded development of wind energy in Nebraska, this lecture will be essential to any citizen hoping to see Nebraska take its rightful place in the renewable energy economy.
