They like to appear green.
I like how they generally refuse to build power plants instate.
But have no problem buying from out of state. They like to forget or just don't realize the losses associated with transmitting power long distance, which can be up to 10%.
So there for any "green" efficiency boosting rules or laws they mandate will never make up for the power transmission losses they self inflicted.
