In order to drive sustained emissions reductions, we must set bold and aggressive sector specific clean energy standards.
- Enact a bold national 100% Clean Electricity Standard requiring utilities to achieve 100% carbon-neutral electricity by 2030, and all-clean, renewable and zero-emission energy in power generation by 2035.
- Support the use of existing federal authorities to ensure that by 2030 all new vehicles sold in the U.S. are zero-emission vehicles (ZEF).
- Establish a national Energy Efficiency Resource Standard to improve efficiency in energy use in existing buildings. And use strong consumer incentives, utility requirements, and direct public investments in an ambitious new Rebuild America energy retrofit program.
