Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., is planning to offer an alternative-energy bill that could pull support away from a proposal by Sens. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., and Sam Brownback, R-Kan., to establish an economywide renewable-electricity standard. Graham's plan would require utilities to generate a portion of their power from clean-energy sources, including nuclear and clean coal. He said that the Bingaman-Brownback bill is "a bad proposal because it doesn't acknowledge nuclear power as being a low, carbon-free source of energy."
