Tags: Issue, Quite, StateThey're the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and they will not do that. They will not pull the trigger.
Tags: Energy, Pull, TriggerWe're going to march on Washington with a host of Republicans, Democrats, business leaders, legislators.
Tags: Business, Leaders, MarchDuke came to us. They volunteered to come to us and made a number of suggestions to some people on my staff. I don't know how I would characterize them, but there have been some discussions going back and forth between Duke and members of my staff.
Tags: Between, Number, StaffHere is my general approach to the energy companies. You have already charged the utilities a 50 percent credit penalty for the power they were buying from you. You're charging us a penalty. You're not going to get two bites of the apple here.
Tags: Energy, Here, PowerI don't know why they're doing it. I have to assume that their motives are positive, not negative. But they don't understand the severity of the problem in this state.
Tags: Positive, Understand, WhyI know that Duke made a number of demands, including that the attorney general drop its investigation. We have no intention of asking the attorney general to do that.
Tags: Asking, General, NumberI'm doing my part, building plants at a record rate, having historic conservation levels. The only people not doing their part is the federal government that is siding with the energy companies against the interests of the people of California.
Tags: Against, Energy, GovernmentMeanwhile, people have to join us and fight back against the federal government that has dropped the ball, that is in bed with these energy companies, that wants them to make more money than they've made before.
Tags: Fight, Government, MoneyNow, in the space of a year, we've spent 450 percent more for power than we did the year before, and bought essentially the same amount of power. This year, that number's likely to go up. That can't go on forever and have us continue to be the economic engine for America.
Tags: America, Power, YearSo it was flawed in that it didn't require California to have a first claim on the power plants. It deregulated part of the market, but not all of the market.
Tags: Market, Plants, PowerThere are so many scenarios here. We tried to prepare for the worst summer in 40 years and build assumptions based on that. We're preparing for the worst, but we're hoping for the best. And I've told people the end is in sight.
Tags: Best, End, HereThere's no question that California, in the last three or four years, has been privileged to add disproportionately to the economic growth of America, and to contribute to its technological productivity.
Tags: America, Last, QuestionWe believe you will not have to pay more than the current rate structure proposes - which is, for 50 percent of the public, nothing; for another 25 percent, only a 10 percent increase; and for the remaining 25 percent, a 34 percent increase.
Tags: Another, Pay, PublicWe started focusing on this in earnest late summer and early fall. I can build more power plants. In the 12 years before us, not a single plant of major consequence was built.
