2010 gubernatorial press release: on Energy & Oil


Phil Scott: Supports renewable energy investment

In keeping with his strong support of renewable energy investment, Lieutenant Governor candidate Phil Scott will participate in several green energy conferences and forums this month that offer opportunities for an exchange of ideas and expertise about ways to decrease Vermont's reliance on fossil fuels.

"Asserting our independence and self-reliance, taking responsibility for our future energy needs and revitalizing the state's economy and business climate are the principal themes of my candidacy," Scott said. "I see the renewable energy sector as offering a lot of potential to help us accomplish all of these goals, and these conferences provide an invaluable exchange of ideas and information between entrepreneurs, scientists, consumers and state leaders."

The Renewable Energy Future Conference is designed for members of the general public looking for renewable energy options for home or business and for those working in the renewable energy and general energy sector.

Scott Walker: Supports using traditional energy sources

It's inexcusable that at the same time high taxes are driving jobs and people from our state, Governor Doyle and Mayor Barrett are championing global warming legislation that would mandate billions of dollars in new spending to produce the exact same energy we use today. Wisconsin families will pay a steep price for these costly new regulations in higher utility bills.
