"Obama to Feds: Bulk up on Green Power"

"President Obama on Thursday will order the federal government to use renewables for 20 percent of its electricity needs by 2020."



"The Associated Press first reported the news and obtained a copy of the executive order to be released Thursday.

The White House confirmed the report to The Hill.

It will nearly triple the use of the federal government's renewable sources and apply to all federal agencies, civilian and military."

Laura Barron-Lopez reports for The Hill's E2 Wire blog December 5, 2013.
