This webinar will discuss the Senate’s draft climate and clean energy legislation, the Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act (CEJAPA). Following a quick summary of the House’s American Clean Energy and Security Act (ACES) of 2009, we will provide an overview of CEJAPA. CEJAPA includes a pollution reduction and investment plan designed to reduce economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions 20 percent by 2020. Other provisions include energy efficiency incentives, support for renewable energy, and grants for green jobs. CEJAPA is supported by the Obama Administration. The Senate is now reviewing the draft, and businesses like yours have a powerful voice to impact the contents of the final bill! Greg Nelson, White House Office of Public Liaison Associate Director of Energy, Environment, and Technology, along with industry experts will discuss the contents of the Senate bill; compare it to the House bill, with a focus on key energy efficiency and renewable provisions; discuss potential alternatives; and outline the expected timeline for legislative action. Industry representatives will also explain the importance of the legislation to the industry and invite participants to show their support and tell them how.
