Subject: Sell surplus UTwind/solarpower energy to other states?

Answer to How can a country export their surplus wind and solar-powered energy they produce? by David Moe https://www.quora.com/How-can-a-country-export-their-surplus-wind-and-solar-powered-energy-they-produce/answer/David-Moe-9?ch=15&oid=242923932&share=80684649&srid=upgVvc&target_type=answer

Dear Utah State House Majority Leader Mike Schultz,

I am sure you and your legislative colleagues are all very aware that our great state of Utah has phenomenally enormous  potential as a Solar Power-Producing  and Wind Power-Producing state.

Do you or any of  your Utah State House colleagues support proposed state funding as soon as possible for a new outside consultant study to identify the potential annual contribution to the economy of Utah from the sale of surplus solar-power-generated and wind power-generated energy to neighboring or nearby states?

I am referring to states such as Idaho,  Nevada, Arizona,  Colorado, Wyoming,  New Mexico, and possibly Montana or Oregon or California.

Above is a link to a copyrighted recent "Quora.com" statement that refers to the current sale of excess energy from one state of the USA to another.

I hope this very  tentative brainstorming letter is helpful to you, your Utah House colleagues,  and to our entire beloved "Beehive State".

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

Nebraska native John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Ninth Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.

My cell phone: (512) 993-7305.

I am the youngest grandson of Murray (UT) butcher shop owner and LDS member  Parley Neal McMillan of Murray and his devoted LDS member wife, Mrs. Alice Mae Pugh (maiden surname) McMillan of Murray.
