This report analyzes three questions to assess how the sources of electric power in the Miami area may affect the city’s competitive position for attracting new businesses:
1. Are Fortune 500 companies increasingly prioritizing climate and clean energy factors into their economic development decisions?
2. How do the climate and renewable electricity plans of the Miami-area grid compare to the plans of power providers for six similarly sized cities with whom Miami competes for new businesses (competitor cities)?
3. To what extent will the electricity generation plans for the Miami-area make it less attractive as companies consider expanding, relocating, or siting new facilities?
