Join Paul and Guy on Friday at Four today at 4 PM via YouTube, Facebook and X to learn more about the startling new cost estimates for the Legislature’s Clean Heat Standard.
As reported today in the Vermont Daily Chronicle, a report commissioned by the State of Vermont indicates that the cost of implementing the Clean Heat Standard could cost $4 dollars per gallon MORE than you’re paying now for heating fuel.
That means an added cost of about $1000 per fill up of a 250 gallon heating fuel tank that right now already costs $1000 to fill.
Furthermore, the report projects total costs of implementing a Clean Heat Standard at about $9.6 billion. The report also claims a total benefit of $11.7 billion, for a claimed $2.1 billion benefit.
We’ll work through all of these numbers on Friday at Four with Matt Cota, former president of the Vermont Fuel Dealers.
