Why renewable energy policy advocates should lobby state lawmakers later in the legislative process
By: Srinivas Parinandi
Abstract:
Under the federalist system, US states have a great deal of decision-making power over a wide range of policy areas. In new research, Srinivas 鈥淐hinnu鈥 Parinandi looks at how states can be encouraged to enact renewable energy development policies. Looking at the diffusion of state renewable energy development policy legislation over decades, he finds that state legislators are more likely to be influenced by the actions of other states and approve similar legislation at home when they are voting on it, rather than when bills are being developed.
