If you are looking for a reason to vote for Joan Hartmann as 3d
District Supervisor, you need look no further than the county’s progress on
clean energy since Joan joined the Board of Supervisors in 2017.
With Joan as a leading proponent, the county joined Monterey Bay
Community Power, which will enable us to achieve 100 percent carbon-free
electricity throughout the county.
Joan
has been a strong advocate for the Strauss Wind Energy Project, which will double
renewable electricity generation in the county, providing energy for 30
percent of the county’s households. Wind is a high performing clean energy
producer. It generates more power per nameplate capacity than solar: While a
solar plant produces about 25 percent of the time, wind produces 33 percent.
