"If of thy mortal goods Thou art bereft,
And from thy slender store
two loaves alone to thee are left,
sell one, and with the dole
buy Hyacinths to feed thy soul.".

The very first Energy Plan for Georgia has been published and submitted to the Legislature and the Governor. You can read all 8 Chapters at www.georgiaenergyplan.org. The Plan recommends that the state set a goal for reducing energy needs, support the increased use of renewable energy and encourage increased production from cleaner coal-fired and nuclear plants. Our energy needs are actually two pronged—fuel to move our vehicles and electricity to heat/cool our homes and run our industry.
