A RESOLUTION to encourage the State of Tennessee to develop an energy production plan in an effort to become an energy exporter.
Impact
The resolution highlights Tennessee's potential to leverage its existing resources, such as the Tennessee River for hydroelectric power and its nuclear capabilities centered around Oak Ridge. By proactively utilizing these resources, the state could support its growing industries, particularly in the automotive sector, and improve the quality of life for its residents. This shift toward energy exportation is positioned as a means of achieving economic growth and sustaining essential services.
