Abstract
Nebraska has the 3rd highest potential for wind energy in the country but ranks 12th in installed wind capacity. Our reliance on fossil fuels and lagging investment in generation technologies of the future mean that our beloved low cost of electricity will increase in the near future. We need a renewable portfolio standard.
