Florida legislators revived the debate over renewable energy and a bill that will provide tax incentives to homeowners or businesses that invest in renewable energy technology. The state of Florida is greatly dependant on natural gas as its primary source of energy. This makes Florida very dependent on foreign energy sources and transportation. Many believe that this is as important step in converting the state to renewable energies. Solar panels, wind turbines, and bio fuels are some of the technologies that can receive the tax incentives. The bill also allows companies to install charging stations for electric cars to encourage more people to buy and use them. Lastly, the bill requires electric companies to be judges on their fuel diversity if they want to build a new power plant. I believe that, if passed, this bill will motivate people to begin to use renewable energy and will be a small step in reducing the need for natural gas and oil.
