Clean Air

Wind energy provides a zero emissions energy source and can provide the country with cost-effective emission reductions. AWEA seeks recognition for wind energy in clean air and climate change policies.

AWEA seeks recognition by:

  • Advocating the development of wind energy as a mechanism to displace emissions in order to reach state, regional, and national emission reduction policy goals.
  • Supporting and encouraging the inclusion of wind energy in market-based emission reduction policies, such as cap and trade programs, through allocation of allowance value.
