Developers’ Roundtable Series
In December 2009 and March 2010, the Council convened two full-day meetings of clean energy developers where participants engaged in facilitated discussions about the challenges facing developers in New England. The Council solicited feedback from the dozens of developers participating and compiled a list of policy priorities which has been used to shape the Council’s federal and state advocacy efforts. Already, the Council has, among other actions, submitted comments to FERC regarding the subsidization of power lines from the Midwest; and discussed regulatory compliance with key state actors in Massachusetts. Dialogue with developers has continued since then, informing the Council’s policy efforts.
