Dear Governor Northam,

I hope that the Commonwealt's new Energy Plan will do the following:

Eliminate barriers to customer owned and third party financing of solar power

Encourage customer owned battery storage

Develop proposed hydroelectric storage facilities to store wind and solar power (NOT fossil fuel generated power), and build on brownfields NOT greenfields

Require utilities and regulators to work harder to reduce retail electric consumption 10% by 2020

Place a moratorium on new fracked gas pipelines; the existing infrastructure can already meet our needs
