William
S. Cohen Papers Forum
Held Wednesday, October 5, 2005
at Buchanan Alumni House
Energy policy continues to confound us as it did in the 1970s
when then Representative Bill Cohen began promoting energy
conservation and alternative fuels research to reduce dependence
on foreign oil. Now, thirty years later, what compromises are
needed to fuel the future and gain energy security for Maine
and the nation? Our distinguished speakers shared their knowledge
and led discussion of issues such as reliable energy, biomass
development, and LNG terminal siting.
