On May 13--14, 1997, DOE, EPRI, and EEI, in association with Central and South West Services, Inc., organized and conducted the second national green power conference in Corpus Christi, TX to: (1) provide an update and overview of existing and new green-pricing programs, (2) discuss lessons learned from selling green power in retail access pilot programs, and (3) hear perspectives on market facilitating issues such as green power certification and information disclosure. From a policy perspective, there was a general feeling that total reliance on market forces to foster greater renewables deployment is not desirable, particularly in the short term as the rules of the competitive market are being developed. Policies that establish a minimum public obligation to fund renewables, such as universal system benefits charges and a renewables portfolio standard, should still be considered.
