Speaker Introduces House
Energy Bill
Yesterday, July 31, 2007, Speaker Nancy Pelosi introduced the
long awaited House energy bill. It is a very far reaching bill with a
number of pending and potentially controversial amendments. The bill
will be taken up by the full House in two days for debate. ASERTTI has
not completed a summary of the lengthy bill, but there are many
provisions of interest ranging from building and lighting efficiency to
plug-in hybrid demonstrations to authorization of ARPA-E – a new federal
technology transfer and break through research entity. ASERTTI will
update members on the bill's progress early next week. To access a copy
