Published | Video Starts at 12:16

We have our roadmap. We are looking at meeting all of our goals. In Colorado, we did pass regulations around creating guidelines for geothermal, for hydrogen. We fought to be part of the hydrogen hub efforts. We didn't get that, but our standards are the federal standards. And in Colorado, we also passed a law to do a study on what small nuclear reactors would, if that would work for us here in the western slope, as we see, or just transition away from coal. (12:16–12:26)
