I'm sorry to report that the backers of renewable energy tax credit legislation today failed to get enough votes to get a vote on the legislation itself, H.R. 6049, the Renewable Energy and Job Creation Act of 2008.  This is getting tired.  I reported yesterday on the continued blossoming of activity in renewables.  However, things are going to slow down if the production tax credits and other vehicles are not renewed.  See this today from the AP and my post on this from May 24.
