Of course, CLF sees all these programs as closely linked: we want to close down old, dirty, polluting coal-fired power plants and replace them with clean renewable energy.

Specifically, CLF has been an active participant in both crafting the legal and statutory framework governing EE efforts in these states, and in the regulatory process of implementing efficiency efforts. CLF staff attorneys have been deeply involved in energy efficiency work in all six New England states. We can save money and create jobs while reducing the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change. Energy efficiency is the cleanest and cheapest way for New England to meet its energy needs. CLF staff attorneys have written many of the key laws governing and promoting renewable energy in several New England states, and our staff attorneys litigate frequently in state utilities commissions to make sure that those laws are properly carried out.

Supporting Renewable Energy. CLF is working actively to support renewable energy here in New England – projects such as Cape Wind.

Scientists and energy experts have concluded that the rapid phase out of coal is required to avoid the most devastating impacts of climate change, including sea level rise, a threat of particular concern in New England. In New England, emissions from coal-fired power plants make up a disproportionate share of the greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. Coal is the most carbon-intensive source of electricity.

Coal-Free New England. CLF is working – through lawsuits and other means – to permanently close all of the remaining coal-fired power plants in New England.

At least three of these programs dealing with climate change bring us into contact with ISO-New England.

Question: Why and how does CLF interact with ISO-New England?Īnswer: As New England’s leading environmental advocacy organization, CLF has multiple programs addressing the problem of climate change and greenhouse gas emissions. ISO-New England keeps the lights on here in New England. If you had to describe the task of the ISO-New England is just a few words you would say: They are the people who make sure that when you flip the switch in your living room, you actually get the electricity to turn on your lights. For example, ISO-New England determines when additional electricity generation plants have to be turned on during a summer heat wave to make sure that there is no blackout when lots of people all turn on their air conditioners at the same time.
