Regardless of our individual politics, the outcome of the US election this morning presents many risks to our industry. This has caused me, and many of you, a lot of anxiety over the past few days, weeks, months. But now we have certainty. And while there are serious risks to be navigated, the world still needs more energy, and we are building it. US states still need more electricity with predictable pricing, and in many regions wind is the best way to provide that. The US still wants more domestic manufacturing and high skilled jobs, and wind provides that. US on- and off-shore wind projects must and will move forward, and deserve bipartisan support. Let's keep working together on this shared vision.

Let's start calling this "modern energy," instead of renewable or alternative, and start calling fossil fuels "dirty energy" instead of conventional.

PG&E and NRDC made a plan to close Diablo Canyon Nuclear Plant. "Under the joint proposal, PG&E will withdraw its request for a 20-year extension of its Nuclear Regulatory Commission licenses for Diablo Canyon’s two generating units near San Luis Obispo" ... "The generation from California’s last remaining nuclear power plant, which began operating in 1985, will be replaced with wind and solar power; efficiency programs that reduce electricity needs; demand response; and increased amounts of capacity to store wind and solar energy for later use."

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) has signed a proposal with Pacific Gas & Electric Co. (PG&E), labor unions and various environmental groups to replace the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in California with zero-emissions energy – including wind and solar power – within nine years.
