REORDERING

• Look through "best practice" publications (ACEEE, Governors, others?) to identify where our states excel.
• Use DSIRE to describe other RE & EE regulations and incentives.
• Look for anecdotal RE information: Sterzinger's bits on NV and MI, Greener Pathways report on PA wind manufacturing, OH governor piece on energy and jobs?
• Make spreadsheet of information that will be same for every state: energy mix, energy prices, projected energy use, imports/exports, how many major electric utilities, resource potential for RE, potential for RE manufacturing jobs, # cooling/heating degree days,
• Choose 2-3 most important environmental issues/Use ranking of environmental quality by states.
• Compile State of the State reports; Read SoS reports and identify 2-3 important points.
