British Columbia Proposes Legislation To Promote Clean Energy Development

摘要

British Columbia's proposed Clean Energy Act, introduced April 28 in the Canadian province's Legislature, provides for unprecedented investments in renewable energy production and new conservation targets, Premier Gordon Campbell said.rnIf approved, the measure (Bill 17) would significantly reduce the province's greenhouse gas emissions, Campbell said in an April 28 statement. Passage is likely, as the government has a healthy legislative majority.
