Argus Media is reporting:
President Barack Obama directed federal agencies to obtain 20 percent of their electricity from renewables by fiscal year 2020, a move that could make the government a buyer of renewable energy certificates (RECs).
The new target, included in a presidential memorandum, would almost triple the government renewable energy usage from the current 7 percent.That's less than 8 years from now.
Presidents come and go.
It's interesting that the president has this much power -- Congress not even involved in such a massive shift.
I guess that's why the US Navy is spending $26/gallon on algae-bio-diesel.
