Environmental advocates applaud APS’ carbon-free commitment: Conservation and consumer groups today welcomed Arizona Public Service’s (APS) announcement that will set the utility on a path toward 45 percent renewable energy by 2030 and 100 percent carbon-free electricity by midcentury. “APS’ commitment to 100 percent carbon-free electricity is great news for Arizonans, who overwhelmingly support clean energy,” said Art Terrazas, Interior West Director for Vote Solar. “But corporate commitments must also be enforced, and may not benefit everyone equitably. Now, the Arizona Corporation Commission must adopt a statewide, 100 percent carbon-free standard that ensures all Arizonans can benefit from clean energy.” Source: Vote Solar
