Power to the People: Advancing Energy Equity in North Carolina and Beyond

Join us on Thursday, March 30, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern for a Campaign for Energy Justice webinar on advancing energy equity in North Carolina and beyond. We will explore how customer-owned solar power generation can create equity for low-wealth communities as the country transitions to a clean energy economy.

Reliable access to clean, affordable electricity is a matter of equity and justice. Yet communities of color, rural communities, and low-wealth communities are more likely to lack access to this basic life necessity. One critical antidote to this disparate effect is energy equity, and one tool to get there is customer-owned generation. This means electric generation via rooftop and community solar as opposed to renewable energy produced and supplied by a utility.

In this webinar, advocates and experts will discuss the state and national landscape around customer-owned generation and the corresponding policy and regulatory challenges to achieving a more equitable energy system. The Center for Progressive Reform's forthcoming policy brief on the topic will serve as a springboard for the discussion.

Even if you cannot attend, please register below and we'll send you a recording afterward.
