Hagan: The case for energy efficiency in S.C.

In this mention

Colin Hagan, federal policy associate for the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, argues in this op-ed that energy efficiency and carbon cap-and-trade policies with auctioned credits will benefit South Carolina's economy and consumers. He counters utility industry claims about rate increases, noting that South Carolina ranks fourth nationally in energy waste and could save $3 billion through efficiency measures while creating 4,500 jobs.
