In 2004, voters overwhelmingly passed Colorado's Renewable Energy Standards, which requires ten percent of all power generated by Xcel Energy (Colorado's energy provider) to be from renewable sources by 2015. Colorado took a huge leap toward that goal by recently breaking ground on a $60 million solar energy plant, the largest in the U.S. The electricity from this plant is expected to power 1,500 homes and reduce CO2 emissions by 14,000 tons.
Kudos to Colorado
