Create a federal clean-energy standard for power companies

DeGette authored the Clean Energy Innovation and Deployment Act, which would require U.S. power companies to eliminate their net carbon emissions by as early as 2035. The bill would offer incentives for power plants ready to switch to net-zero emissions and support development of technologies to lower emissions. It also would provide assistance to train current fossil-fuel-industry workers for future jobs.

Context: The source presents the bill as proposed and says the deadline could be as early as 2035; it does not give details about incentive levels or worker-assistance eligibility.
