CDEAC
The Clean and Diversified Energy Committee (CDEAC) consisted of 31 members that represented a wide range of interests from WGA member states and provinces. The CDEAC was charged with the task of identifying incentive-based, non-mandatory recommendations that would facilitate 30,000 megawatts of new clean and diverse energy by 2015, a 20 percent increase in energy efficiency by 2020 and adequate transmission for the region. With the help of its task forces, white paper authors, and public comments, the CDEAC presented its report to the Western Governors at their 2006 Annual Meeting in Sedona, AZ. The Governors adopted a policy resolution that incorporated many of these recommendations.
