  7. A strong settlement for Constellation-Exelon merger

    Gov. Martin O'Malley may not have gotten Exelon to bump up the $100 rate credit it promised to Baltimore Gas and Electric customers as part of its proposed merger with Constellation Energy, but he secured concessions that will be far more valuable to Maryland ratepayers in the long run. The settlement the governor plans to announce  Thursday includes a vastly greater commitment to renewable energy and other new power generation than Exelon had ever agreed to before. It contains millions to help improve energy efficiency and assist low-income customers who have trouble paying their bills. And it is likely to produce substantially more short-term and permanent jobs than the energy company's initial proposal.

  9. Farm energy programs do double duty

    The Senate and House agriculture committees' attempt to integrate a "secret" $250 billion Farm Bill within the supercommittee's package of recommendations collapsed last  month with the deficit panel's failure to reach agreement on how to cut federal spending and raise new revenues. As a result, agriculture policymakers are  back to square one in crafting a new Farm Bill that will determine much of our nation's food, fiber, conservation and energy policies for the next five years, if not longer.

  11. O'Malley: Benefits of Exelon-CEG merger go beyond rate credit

    While Maryland business, labor and environmental groups backed a $1 billion settlement between Gov. Martin O'Malley and Exelon Corp. related to the Chicago company's buyout of Constellation Energy Group, not everyone was satisfied.

  13. State needs wind energy to reach its goals

    Much of the attention paid to Gov.Martin O'Malley's second offshore wind proposal has centered around the cost of building and maintaining an offshore wind farm and its effect on ratepayers. That is a very important discussion, and the governor has his work cut out for him convincing Marylanders that his plan won't unduly increase their monthly electric bills. But it is only part of the story. Inaction on the plan would mean failure to follow through on the state's goal to meet 20 percent of electricity demand with renewable sources by 2022. The offshore wind proposal should be viewed within the context of Maryland's long-term energy growth plan.

  15. Natural gas exports eyed through Calvert County

    — It's quiet these days at Dominion's liquefied natural gas terminal in the Chesapeake Bay. Only five tankers docked last year at the pier a mile off the Calvert County shoreline, and not much traffic is expected this year, either.

    Can politics ever be subordinated for the public good? Anyone watching Democrats and Republicans bicker today might believe that impossible. Certainly, Washington has had plenty of opportunities in the past two years on matters of budget and taxes and...
