普力士的EDGE议案启动了太阳能行业在美国的投资和扩张

科罗拉多州议员杰瑞德.普力士和女议员琳达.桑澈继续着他们的事业――推动该州的新能源增长以及创造新的工作机会。同时他们也联合推出了H.R.5763，（太阳能扩张和分散发电指数增长议案）该议案启动了美国小规模分散发电太阳能项目，并且推动了该太阳能行业长期工作职位的增多。“科罗拉多州是美国发展新能源科技和绿色经济的领头羊，”议员普力士讲道，“但是不幸的是，在科罗拉多州太阳能电力多被定义为需要为电力并网花费巨大建设资金的大型项目。
但是太阳能可以也应该是每个家庭或者小企业的选择，每一个光秃的屋顶都是一个浪费的机会。ESGE太阳能议案将推动美国太阳能工业并保持我们曾创造的美国在科技上的领先地位，而其该议案也将能够产生大批的投资和工作机会，并且最终减低最终客户的能源消费负担。

21.07.2010: Continuing his push to create jobs and support Colorado’s growing clean energy industry, Colorado Congressman Jared Polis (D-CO), joined by Congresswoman Linda Sanchez (D-CA), has introduced H.R. 5763, the Solar Expansion of Distributed Generation Exponentially (EDGE) Act, to help spark investment in small scale “distributed generation” solar projects across the U.S. and encourage long-term job growth in the solar industry. “Colorado is a national leader in developing innovative clean energy technologies and our growing green economy,” said Congressman Polis. “Unfortunately, new solar power has been mostly confined to states like Colorado with solar-friendly regulations or large-scale projects that require expensive transmission infrastructure. 
Solar could and should be an easy choice for every household or small business; every empty rooftop is a wasted opportunity.  The Solar EDGE Act will boost the American solar industry, maintain America’s leadership in a technology we created, and promote a surge of new clean energy investment that will fuel job creation and drive down consumer energy prices.” …
