Michael Killen, radio/TV talk show host and artist, on KZSU Stanford Radio 90.1 fm interviewe with Gene Nelson, PhD and Government Liaison for Californians for Green Nuclear Power.

Responding to a request from KZSU Stanford Radio host, Michael Killen, Gene Nelson, PhD resonded ‘Yes. PacifiCorp has been laboring to create what they call a “Regional Energy Imbalance Market” or “Regional Load Balancing Authority” to sell PacifiCorp’s surplus dirty fossil-fired electricity to California since about 2003. CGNP’s written testimony to the CPUC in A.16-08-006 covered this topic extensively. Also, with the encouragement of Governor Brown’s office, Assemblyman Chris Holden (D-41) sneaked the PacifiCorp proposal into two pieces of noncontroversial legislation (AB 726 and AB 813) at the last minute during this year’s legislative session that ended on 15 September 2017. A firestorm of protests ensued, so Assemblyman Holden withdrew the sneaky legislation. Holden also prevented passage of Senate Pro-Tem Kevin DeLeon’s SB 100, a clean-energy bill which would have prohibited the importation of dirty fossil-fired electricity into California. More details on request.’ Dr. Gene Nelson –Government Liaison for Californians for Green Nuclear Power.

Michael Killen produced the interview with Dr. James L. Sweeney, Hoover Fellow, and head of the famed research organization -Precourt Energy Efficiency Center at Stanford; during a live broadcast at KZSU Stanford Radio 90.1 FM. The interview also addressed a controversial study that concluded that water, wind, solar and hydrogen was all that was needed to meet the US energy requirements.
