What about the ethical aspects of the govemment's allow- ance for these plants to continue polluting the atmosphere with the emissions that may cause health problems for citizens and further the effects of global warming? What types of regulations, if any, should be developed for PEC (and other generators) to follow in the future? 3. You developed an interest in the LEC relation and the publicized cost of electricity of 10.27e/kWh for this year. You wonder if the addition of 60 MW of wind-sourced electricity will make any difference in the LEC value for this next year.
