Got to love all these new “Advisory Boards”. All of this under the umbrella of green energy. I love how they have to back door all of this green stuff, or subsidize it heavily.
Four areas they are going to influence:
1. Subsidies for private-sector green energy projects
2. Subsidies for special tax incentives for green energy projects
3. Subsidies for low-interest government-backed loans for green energy projects
And drum roll please, the assistant secretary of energy’s favorite:
4. They mandate, issue regulations to force ‘Market Transformation’
Ah, global government is going to be such a happy place…

Energy Department Says It Has ‘Mandate’ to Force ‘Market Transformation’ for Household Appliances
Assistant Secretary of Energy Cathy Zoi said Thursday that the U.S. Department of Energy has a “mandate” to issue regulations to determine what household appliances are available to Americans in the future.
Speaking at the inaugural meeting of the recently reestablished Secretary of Energy Advisory Board (SEAB), Zoi pointed to four tactics the Obama administration intended use to advance the “deployment of clean energy.” The first three were government subsidies for private-sector green energy projects, special tax incentives for green energy projects and low-interest government-backed loans for green energy projects.
“The fourth one, which the secretary and I love,” said Zoi, “is where we have a mandate. Where we can actually just issue regulations and do market transformation.”
