Editorial: TVA executes sharp electric rate increase amid lack of transparency
“Only in an Orwellian world of misinformation do we see our nation's largest 'public' power utility pass a massive rate increase while providing the public the least amount of information compared to 'private' utilities. It's highly unusual for a utility the size of TVA to issue a rate increase with zero independent review. This is a broken process, and every ratepayer in the Tennessee Valley is literally paying the price.”

SACE sees many silver linings in Senate climate bill; House passage expected
“Change is coming. This bill is a historic commitment by the United States to regain a leadership position not only in addressing climate disruption but also in leading the clean energy technology revolution that is being unleashed. While no single entity can take credit for the rollercoaster ride that led to the Senate passing this significant legislation, much credit must be given to the voters in Georgia. By electing not one, but two climate-focused Senate leaders in a run-off election in early 2021, these two Southern senators were absolutely necessary for creating this moment in history and shepherding the bill through the political tightrope in the Senate. We look forward to swift passage by the House of Representatives and the President's signature.”
