Looking at the Candidates Energy Policies - Edwards
Cleaner, More Efficient Cars
Edwards supports increased fuel efficiency standards for cars. He will also sharply increase research into alternative ways to power our cars—not just fuel cells, as the president proposes.

Renewable Energy
Edwards believes that we should set ambitious and achievable standards that will allow the country to move away from our dependence on fossil fuels. He has been a strong supporter of using cleaner-burning ethanol, and supports the creation of new biorefineries to transform agricultural wastes - like corn husks, rice straw and wood chips - into energy.

Empowered Consumers
Many Americans want to make more environmentally friendly choices—they just need information. Edwards will give consumers more information about total energy costs for particular products.

(I was unable to find anything more specific on the site. If anyone has access, by all means)
