Shaheen's Energy Objectives

Berlin agrees in essence. Political clout is what we have.

End subsidies to big oil, make a serious commitment to energy efficiency and alternative energy. The long term answer to our energy needs and future economic prosperity is energy efficiency and clean alternative energy. The world is on the verge of the most significant economic transformation since the Industrial Revolution. Millions of new jobs will be created in alternative energy, energy efficiency and environmental remediation. These jobs will go to the first nations to invest seriously in clean energy.


Jeanne Shaheen wants those jobs, that prosperity, and that economic security to come to New Hampshire.

Jeanne Shaheen wants to redirect the billions of dollars in tax breaks Washington is giving to the oil companies – they don’t need them, they’re making the largest profits in the history of business – and instead use that money to expand tax credits for energy efficiency and alternative energy like solar, wind and forest byproducts, invest in research and development of new energy technologies, and build a 21st century transmission system.

New Hampshire has abundant timber resources and an entrepreneurial spirit second to none. Our goal should be to make New Hampshire the alternative energy capital of New England, and that’s what Jeanne Shaheen will fight for in the United States Senate.
