We started in 2004 when Mark Udall and the Republican Speaker of the House Lola Spradley ran the first renewable portfolio standard ballot initiative in the country. The initial goal was 10% by 2015, which we achieved. The percentage has been raised several times. We have almost no coal plants left.

Xcel Energy has a single generator in Pueblo, Comanche 3, which is the thermal capacity of a nuclear reactor. It’s absolutely enormous. It’s been a boondoggle since the beginning, but it is scheduled for shutdown. The area just needs more solar and wind capacity to power the steel mill.
