'Hoosiers Homegrown' includes more flex fuel, ethanol vehicles, coal

Continuing our post on Indiana's energy policy, state governor Mitch Daniels announced his plans to the media last week. Calling it the "Hoosiers Homegrown" energy policy, his plans include the purchase of more alternative fuel vehicles by government agencies as well as ways to power such agencies with alternative fuels. Daniels wants more pursuit into clean coal technology not only to support his alternative energy plans but also to improve the state economy and employment as well. Said Daniels, "We're going to need thousands of coal miners because we're going to use a lot more Indiana coal. We're going to produce more of our power here at home."
