Earlier today, we released the latest addition of our State of Renewable Energy Report. Unfortunately, we found that Pennsylvania ranks 47th in the Nation for growth of clean, renewable energy over the past decade. And we only get 5% of our electricity from renewable sources.

"Pennsylvanians want and need a cleaner, healthier future, powered by abundant renewable resources,” said Belle Sherwood, Climate and Clean Energy advocate with PennEnvironment. “Clearly Pennsylvania isn’t doing enough to tap into the benefits of clean energy at the rate of most other states.”

Thank you so much to Rep. David Madsen, Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler, Will Hoover from McClure Company, David Scholnick from Solar States, and PennEnvironment member Ted Fallon for joining us to speak at today's events and for all you do for our planet!
