到2050年，明尼苏达州大部分能源将来自风能和太阳能

Most of Minnesota’s Energy Could Come from Wind, Solar by 2050

来自明尼苏达州的一项新研究发现,到2050年,该州70%的电力将来自风能和太阳能——其成本将与天然气大致相当。州政府计划利用明尼苏达州商务部委托的这份研究报告,因为它考虑到了未来的能源政策决定。自2007年共和党人蒂姆·波伦蒂实施了法令,以增加可再生能源的使用,并减少温室气体的排放以来,该州一直是全美推动可再生能源的引领者。

A new study out of Minnesota found that 70 percent of the state's electricity could come from wind and solar energy by 2050-and it would cost about the same as natural gas.State officials plan to use the report,which was commissioned by the Minnesota Department of Commersce.
