MUSCATINE -- The planning continues at Muscatine Power and Water to switch from coal fired to natural gas fired power generation, and some local residents continue to press for more reliance on renewable energy.
Muscatine resident Jean Clark told Tuesday evening's meeting of the Board of Water, Electric, and Communications Trustees that she is particularly concerned because of the recent energy disaster in Texas.
"Texas has been on the news a lot," said Clark. "The grid is the concern I have, especially the transmission line, as you go to a natural gas plant. Might we be better off for the community if we invest in more renewables?"
