US elections: the morning after

Hallitusmuodosta saw net profit of 65 seats in the House and Senate six seats. GOP obtained control Congress one House, it was two seats in the Senate win shy.

Scott Sklar, Stella group and political commentator on this site says, the effect is still unclear.

"Party shifts to the medium-term elections have been routine in the United States, and this option is not an exception to the" Sklar says."The great concern is whether the new Republican electees lash pro-renewable energy policies to be paid to the covert, strong support that President Obama has adopted national on stage."

Hallitusmuodosta and Democrats have expressed their sincere support for renewable energy sources, have been Democrats. [1] [2] a lot of aggressive, suitable for pushing the long-term objectives of renewable energy sources, and the price of carbon. [1] [2] in case you missed it last month, our columnist Ardour Capital Investments Robert Lahey exposure by moving the political winds, presented in accordance with the most and the least amount of programs.

According to the programmes shall be adopted in accordance with Lahey, exposure in most elections, must include the following:

The proposed CAP and trade & renewable Portfolio Standard

The proposed natural gas vehicle incentives

$ 5b of the manufacturer or his authorized representative established within the proposed clean energy Tax Credit (MTC)

$ 60b DOE loan guarantee the lending authority ($ 35b already been revoked)

Tax credits extension (expired in 2010) biodesiel, biomass (expired in 2010) and ethanol (expires in 2011)

Investment Tax Credit (ITC), the money grant program (expires in 2011) and the Production Tax Credit (PTC) (ending in 2013) which are critical for wind and geothermal.

Democrats try to pass the key tax credits and the expansion of the Ministry of finance granted before the program closes the lame-duck session. renewable energy sources is a good idea to try to find the legislative vehicle (that is to say, the related Bill of materials), which may not be transported in these snap-ins. It is highly unlikely that a renewable energy standard get passed before the end of the year. And we've known for sometime, Cap and trade is completely dead for an indefinite period of time.

According to the programmes shall be adopted in accordance with Lahey, at least, the exposure of the elections, must include the following:

29 State-level RPSs

$ 25b for DOE stimulus funding

Renewable fuels Standard (RFS) biofuels mandates through 2022

2016 Through 30%, which is an important guarantee the ITC solar and

The case has been over the last decade, much of the State programs are driving the development of renewable energy sources.Because potentially slow operation of a broad range of policies at the national level, it is likely that continues.And that brings us to one of the leading State, California, which had to clean energy for vote relating to the type-approval of two or three very important ballot initiatives.

The first proposal 23, was confirmed and two Texas-based oil refiners, Valero Energy Corp. and Tesero Corp. Prop funded.23 has suspended its California's 2006 historic decarbonising the right, until the mode now the level of 12%, unemployment fell by less than 5,5% for four consecutive quarter.Since the State of low CO2 emissions in respect of the fuel standard and 33% of the renewable energy standard were also AB 32, clean energy backers said that the passage of the implementation of the initiative should actually killed in the industry. [1] [2] well, industry, press and hold the easy this morning: Prop. 23 had defeated the 60,4% 39.6%.

However, that it was not only related to renewable energy sources in the ballot initiative.

Even though California voters rejected the Prop 23., they passed the Proposal 26, which is a good idea to also say the renewable energy industry could be a blow to the clean energy Initiative programmes mode. re-defines California "fees" as "taxes", which means that a majority of 2/3 of the law shall be adopted in accordance with the fee structure changes.

How that does have an impact on the industry?

Vote solar system, CA headquarters explained recently in the land of the rising sun advocacy organization in the story, California, State and local governments rely on the "polluters" to finance environmental initiatives of the charges collected for the manufacturer of the oil, for example, the payment can be used to finance training, inspection and recycling programs in oil gas legislation setting. greenhouse gas emissions, also relies on AB 32 companies that send GHGs Fund execution and control of the charges collected.

Before Prop. 26, new fee structures was passed by majority vote. are now needed 2/3 majority. This means, it is more difficult to impose fees and charges which will be financed by the community of the environment programs and would be in line with the polluter-pays the fee. [1] [2] does not pass, the financing of such programmes is already overloaded state budget of the future and could arise is cut, all in one.

The picture is certainly a mixed state and federal level in the United States, But the new?., the industry has been able to uniformly scaled and dramatic cost, regardless of the nature of the policy peliohjaimilla rikkidioksidip??st?j?. Although there are a lot of uncertainty about moving into 2011, parts continue to be part of the place, slowly but surely.

As always, we are here to report it.
