摘要

The Governors' Wind Energy Coalition published a report March 28 stating that state renewable energy standards, also called renewable portfolio standards, have led to billions of dollars in investment and the creation of thousands of jobs. The state standards have led to $25 billion investment in wind energy alone, according to Renewable Electricity Standards: State Success Stories. The coalition, which includes 23 states, describes itself as a "bipartisan group of governors who are dedicated to the development of the nation's wind energy resources."
