I think I can sum up Courtney’s response from IPL, “No”
Lots of posturing on both sides here. Renewable energy is indeed getting cheaper and the technology more and more efficient, but ask the folks up at MISO in Carmel (the electrical grid operator): we’re already tight on capacity. Thankfully, MISO has the last word here anyway. It would be ironic if IPL were to bow to Council pressure, and shut down Petersburg, and the following summer downtown Indy experiences a brownout during a Council meeting. Not saying that to fear-monger, but if the politicians had their way, all bets would be off.
Hmmm…this seems to be at odds with the state Legislature’s attempt to buoy up coal. (By forcing IPL to not shutter coal-fired plants)
Typical, Indiana drags it’s feet on moving forward. Renewable energy is just too complicated for most Hoosiers.
You’re full of it. Indiana has lots of examples of renewable energy facilities.
No surprise that Indy Council, run by goofy Dems, sticks their nose into something that is none of their business.
