&lt;p&gt;The Washington Clean Energy Coalition has submitted formal comments to the
Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission on Puget Sound Energy’s
most recent resource proposal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id=&quot;what-we-asked-for&quot;&gt;What we asked for&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our comments make three points:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;New natural gas capacity is incompatible with the state’s 2045
carbon-free electricity mandate.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Clean alternatives — wind, solar, storage, and efficiency — can meet
the same reliability needs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ratepayers should not be left holding the cost of stranded fossil-fuel
assets.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;h2 id=&quot;what-happens-next&quot;&gt;What happens next&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Commission will review comments from all stakeholders before issuing
its decision. We will continue to track the docket and report back here.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
