Indiana governor calls for 'homegrown' solution to state's growing energy needs

摘要

Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels wants the state to embrace "homegrown" solutions based heavily on clean coal and biofuels to meet its energy needs. But the Republican governor's critics contend his complex energy plan unveiled last week relies too heavily on greater energy production and not enough on energy efficiency and conservation. They also accuse Daniels, former White House budget director for President George W. Bush, of shortchanging the state's wind energy potential.
