ABOUT THIS EVENT
As the clean energy transition accelerates, communities that have borne the brunt of pollution and high energy prices from fossil fuels are increasingly taking part — building small-scale solar projects, installing microgrids, training the local workforce for clean energy jobs and more. Across the U.S., people are finding ways to access clean, affordable and reliable energy.
Join Canary Media for a conversation with three grassroots leaders who are helping to democratize the clean energy revolution in their communities.
