Your voice is needed to support solar projects!
Sierra Club Pennsylvania Chapter
Greetings,

Here comes the sun… but it needs your help!

Solar energy projects have been proposed across Pennsylvania at the utility-scale level, meaning that they are large enough to send power to our electric grid. Unfortunately, these promising projects are often stopped at the local level, sometimes after planning and permitting processes have already made significant progress. Even well-intentioned local municipalities can be a barrier to renewable energy adoption since they can control local land use. Much of this resistance is driven by misinformation.

The good news is that you can play a role in ensuring that your neighbors know the facts and understand the benefits of bringing more clean energy to our communities! Learn how in the next episode of the Clean Energy for All series.

What: "Here Comes the Sun: How You Can Support Solar Projects in Pennsylvania" Webinar
When: Wednesday, February 25th @ 6:30 PM ET
Where: Virtual via Zoom
Zoom link & call-in number will be sent following registration.

We’ll discuss why solar energy projects are good for our communities, how to combat misinformation and work with local governments to secure project approvals, and highlight specific projects in the state that need your voice right now.
Bring the Sunshine. Register Today!
You will also hear about Sierra Club volunteers whose efforts advocating for a pending solar project had a direct impact on securing local government support. Learn more about the recent victory in Centre County from the Sierra Club Moshannon Group in this month’s issue of the Sylvanian newsletter.
