Gov. Gina M. Raimondo on Wednesday set a new clean energy goal for the state, calling for 1,000 megawatts of renewable energy generation by 2020.
The state now counts about 138 kilowatts of clean energy generated in the Ocean State, ranging from Deepwater Wind LLC’s 30-megawatt offshore wind farm to small-scale solar projects atop the sunnier parts of residential and commercial landscapes and rooftops.
