Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo) presented its plans and financial results at an analyst meeting. PSCo's resource plan aims to reduce carbon emissions 10% by 2017 and 20% by 2020 through increased renewable energy, demand-side management, and natural gas generation. The plan calls for adding 800 MW of wind, 225 MW of solar, and 980 MW of natural gas generation between 2007-2015. Environmental groups praised the plan for establishing precedents in reducing carbon emissions and supporting Colorado's clean energy economy in a cost-effective manner for ratepayers.
