State regulators forced Georgia Power,
. . . to expand the amount of solar energy it generates.
Georgia Tea Party Patriots,
. . . which rallied conservatives behind the solar expansion,
. . . vowed to fight Georgia Power over a proposed 6% rate hike,
. . . designed to pay for new pollution controls on coal-burning power plants,
. . . would add about $8 to the typical residential customer’s monthly bill.
Environmentalists said they would step up pressure,
. . . over the rising costs and scheduling delays for the construction of
. . . 2 new nuclear reactors, millions of dollars in overruns.
Finally a Legislative proposal to create a new solar monopoly
. . . that could challenge Georgia Power’s grip on state utilities.
