Today, I want to highlight House Bill 470, “Responsible Wind Energy Implementation,” which in reality is a harmful wind energy bill. Here are some facts about what this bill would do to harm the wind energy economic potential in North Carolina:
Fact Sheet: Promoting Energy Independence and National Security by Harnessing Wind Energy
Fact Sheet: Why Are Wind Farm Setbacks “Bans in Disguise”?
Fact Sheet: Wind Turbine Decibel Limits: Sounds Like a Ban?
We need to be doing more to promote renewable energy, not less. Please vote “No” on HB 470.
