CRI urges Delaware to consider wood in energy strategy

CRI is urging Delaware to consider wood as one part of a broad energy strategy that evaluates multiple sources rather than relying on a single option.

What CRI is asking for

The group’s position is that wood should be included in Delaware’s discussion of an “all-of-the-above” energy approach. That phrase describes a strategy that considers a range of energy sources.

The request does not establish that Delaware has adopted a new energy policy. It identifies wood as an option CRI wants the state to consider.

What is known about the proposal

The announcement centers on whether wood belongs in Delaware’s broader energy discussion. It does not identify a state vote, a new law or a formal decision by a Delaware agency.

CRI’s request also does not, by itself, change how Delaware produces or uses energy. Any policy change would require action by the appropriate state officials or institutions.

What comes next

The issue would move forward through Delaware’s public policy process if state officials decide to examine the proposal. That could include further discussion of whether wood should be included among the energy options considered by the state.

For now, the development is CRI’s call for Delaware to include wood in an all-of-the-above strategy. No state action is identified in the announcement.
