	Bruce Lisman on Energy & Oil

Moratorium on industrial scale solar and wind projects

Establish a temporary moratorium on industrial scale solar and wind projects. We need to improve the process for approving and siting large renewable energy installations. Local communities must have meaningful input into the process. We cannot continue to ignore the negative impacts on our environment and our neighbors. And in many parts of the state, we have reached capacity in terms of the ability to economically integrate additional renewable generation capacity into our grid. Let's slow down and make sure we put in place a more deliberate and balanced permitting process for industrial scale renewables, and ensure that the electric infrastructure can support these additions.
