Online, February 23, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Join the Renewable Energy Markets Association (REMA) on March 6 at 12PM ET (9AM PT) for the webinar, Renewable Portfolio Standards Update: 2012's Compliance Modifications, Progress, and Prognostications. This complimentary webinar will feature two renewable energy experts and their insights into generation technologies, sourcing requirements, and other revisions changing the face of renewable energy in the states.

Registration is open and is available online now (https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/679695666). Space is limited, and the presentation will be shared with all registrants following the event.

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory has estimated that by the year 2015, mandated electrical generation from state renewable portfolio standards (RPS) will exceed 150 million Mwh. At a time of seemingly stalled federal energy legislation, state RPS mandates are contributing to increased generation capacity nationwide from renewable sources like geothermal, biomass, wind, solar, and hydrogen.

Whether due to statute or new legislation, many state RPS mandates are in transition in 2012 and 2013, and following these updates can often make the difference in new project development.

Attend the webinar and learn:

--A summary of 2012's increased RPS requirements
--Major tier and sourcing requirements changes
--Trends and concerns in RPS modifications in 2012 and 2013
--How state and regional RPS trends may influence national energy --policy discussions
--Additional insights during a Question and Answer session with the speakers
