Otmane El Rhazi : Hawaii and Vermont set high renewable portfolio standard targets

Otmane El Rhazi from Today in Energy.

Two states recently passed legislation that would require significant increases in renewable electricity generation. On June 8, Hawaii updated legislation setting a 100% renewable portfolio standard (RPS) by 2045. On June 11, Vermont passed a bill creating a 75% RPS by 2032. Both of these RPS target percentages are higher than any other RPS target in the United States.
