Arizona’s renewable energy requirements were last set in 2006 at 15% by 2025, and since then utilities in the state have set goals that match, or in some cases exceed, staff’s new proposed pace.
In June, Tucson Electric Power (TEP) proposed using solar, wind and energy storage systems to reach 70% renewables by 2035. Arizona Public Service (APS) plans to deliver 100% carbon-free energy by 2050, with a near-term target of 45% renewables by 2030.
