Solar Rights For Texas Property Owners, Sara C. Bronin
Solar Rights For Texas Property Owners, Sara C. Bronin
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
In response to Jamie France's note, A Proposed Solar Access Law for the State of Texas, Professor Bronin urges future commentators to focus on three additional areas of inquiry related to proposed solar rights regimes. Bronin argues that such proposals would be strengthened by discussion of potential legal challenges to the proposals, related political issues, and renewable energy microgrids. Ms. France’s proposal for the State of Texas includes the elimination of preexisting private property restrictions that negatively affect solar access. Bronin argues that this proposal would be strengthened by a discussion of potential challenges under federal and state takings clauses. …
Constitutional Contours For The Design And Implementation Of Multistate Renewable Energy Programs And Projects, Robin Kundis Craig
Constitutional Contours For The Design And Implementation Of Multistate Renewable Energy Programs And Projects, Robin Kundis Craig
University of Colorado Law Review
States are increasingly considering multistate efforts to promote the production, sale, and use of renewable energy. For example, in August 2009, policymakers and stakeholders gathered to consider joint renewable energy (specifically, wind energy) transmission projects among Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. This Article explores a number of constitutional issues that multistate efforts to encourage, market, transmit, or distribute renewable energy could raise. It reflects the reality that for energy, as for many other issues, multistate creativity in establishing new governance regimes or in implementing interstate projects often creates constitutional ambiguities. Many of these ambiguities center on the constitutional status-private …
Siting Transmission Lines In A Changed Milieu: Evolving Notions Of The "Public Interest" In Balancing State And Regional Considerations, Ashley C. Brown, Jim Rossi
Siting Transmission Lines In A Changed Milieu: Evolving Notions Of The "Public Interest" In Balancing State And Regional Considerations, Ashley C. Brown, Jim Rossi
University of Colorado Law Review
This Article discusses how state public utility law presents a barrier to the siting of new high-voltage transmission lines to serve renewable resources, and how states can approach the law's evolution in order to preserve a role for state regulators in a new energy economy in which renewable energy will play a significant role. The traditional approach to determining the "public interest" in siting transmission lines is well on its way to obsolescence. Two developments over the past fifteen years have begun to challenge this paradigm. First, policies at the federal level and in many states have encouraged increased competition …
Trust And The Green Consumer: The Fight For Accountability In Renewable Energy Credits, Kelly Crandall
Trust And The Green Consumer: The Fight For Accountability In Renewable Energy Credits, Kelly Crandall
University of Colorado Law Review
Renewable energy credits ("RECs")--commodities representing a megawatt-hour of renewable electricity but tradable separately from the electricity itself-developed to encourage renewable energy investment and to allow individuals and corporations without direct access to renewable energy to subsidize its construction. RECs can be sold voluntarily or applied to state-imposed renewable energy purchase obligations. These state mandates, known as renewable portfolio standards, have contributed dramatically to the demand for RECs. Yet, despite their popularity, RECs are regulated inconsistently: neither federal nor state consumer protection law fully mitigates the opportunities they create for deceptive advertising. This Comment critiques the existing regulatory scheme (or lack …
