National City, CA--Knight & Carver Wind Group salutes the U.S. House of Representatives for last week’s passage of the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009.

Commonly known as the Clean Energy Act (H.R. 2454), the legislation promises to bring significant progress to the nation’s energy needs, led by an increased commitment to the renewable energy sources of wind and solar.

The bill was passed June 26, on a vote of 219 to 212.

“We believe this bill represents the first big step toward ending America’s long dependence on foreign oil,” said Knight & Carver president/CEO Sampson A. Brown.

“While not perfect in its current form, the Clean Energy Act provides a guiding light toward the goal of reducing the nation’s carbon output.

"It also addresses concerns of global climate change and, most importantly, provides reachable goals for increasing renewable energy production for the future.”

Working closely with the American Wind Energy Association, the wind industry’s leading trade group, Knight & Carver will continue to seek refinements and improvement to the bill as it moves to the Senate for final consideration.

“Our industry needs the definitive road map to a cleaner, more energy-efficient future that this bill provides,” added Brown.

“We intend to take an industry leadership role in that process.”
