Senate Passes Bill Requiring Renewables
LCG, Mar. 22, 2002--A bill preceding more comprehensive energy legislation has been passed 58-40 by the Senate, and would require utilities serving the public to provide 10 percent of electricity from renewable resources by 2020.Sen.

Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., said the primary beneficiary of increased use of renewables would be "a few wind generators," while consumers would pay more for energy, he said.Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., said drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge was no longer a serious possibility.
