Energy and Climate Change

Some of the biggest marketers of such deals are stripping the "green" benefits out of them and selling them elsewhere, leaving homeowners with a small discount on the same electricity they were using before.

A growing body of research suggests that the ability of the tax credits to slow climate change would have been still greater had the value of the subsidies been instead linked to the amount of GHG emissions displaced by installing renewable energy.

The future of the solar power sector depends on the leadership of Montana policymakers.

Evolving renewable energy technologies such as solar and wind could some day mean consumers no longer need utilities to provide them with electricity, allowing consumers to drop them.

Electric utility pushed effort to sour economics of rooftop solar.

The move is building a global movement to reduce the huge amount of waste from the billion-dollar plastic bottle industry which is taking a toll on the environment.

Or maybe the next generation of energy will come from river or ocean tides, from "windmills" floating 2,000 feet high in the sky, or from spent nuclear waste. Or the answer might lie with removing carbon from the air and reusing it.

Wyoming’s largest utility is continuing its transition from coal.

In meeting a new federal initiative’s ambitious goals for reducing carbon emissions, states should focus on never emitting them in the first place.

The governor implored the council to focus not on their differences and divisions, but the future. "As Montanans, value the perspective of folks who may not always see things the way that we do," he said.
