A quote from the article: "Senator Jeff Bingaman, Democrat of New Mexico and chairman of the Senate energy committee, said that if too many new technologies beyond core renewable sources like wind and solar were to be included, “the whole purpose of the renewable electricity standard is defeated.”
The goal, he said, is “to encourage the development of some of these newer technologies and bring the price down.”
He added, “If you throw in everything else” and call it renewable, “then your numbers get way out of whack."'
