A message to elected leaders of this country from Ray Pilcher (president of Raven Ridge Resources, Incorporated): America cannot remain competitive and secure without the contributions that renewable energy provides.

The longer we rely on fossil fuels, the greater the chance that America faces even more billion-dollar disasters each year. And it's our businesses and consumers who bear the costs of rebuilding after these climate catastrophes.

An energy crisis looms over the U.S. as Julian Spector wrote for Canary Media Inc. earlier this week. And the answer to meeting unparalleled energy demand could lie in another clean energy technology; 🔋batteries!

CRGA is law!🎉 Today, @GovPritzker signed the Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability (CRGA) Act into law, officially cementing Illinois as the state with the STRONGEST response yet to the rollback of federal climate protections.

Clean energy can be deployed quicker than fossil fuels. And it's cheaper. The answer to fast-rising energy demand is to build more capacity; not hamper businesses from making the smart decision to build renewable energy. But that was one of the headlines in 2025. www.fastcompany.com/91465818/mor...

In 2026, we want to see Congress listen to their constituents like Michelle Knox, owner of WindSolarUSA, Inc.

Last month, she helped us advocate for a fair business environment for clean energy with members of the House & Senate on Capitol Hill. Solar & wind continue to dominate the market.

The Department of Defense has been analyzing the impact renewable energy, like offshore wind, has on America's military operations since E2 Chapter Director Dave Belote helped stand up the siting clearinghouse. It's purpose: ensure renewable energy projects were compatible with military operations.

The Trump administration says it halted construction of five projects for national security. Here’s what wind developers had already agreed to with the Pentagon.

When we say #cleanenergy jobs are good for the economy, this is what we mean. Clean energy is American energy.

The clean economy employs more than 3.5 million Americans while creating a more sustainable environment for everyone in this country (and the world): cleanjobsamerica.e2.org

For the holidays, we're wishing for bipartisan support for the #cleanenergy economy next year.

In 2026, it's time to restart a fair market where the cheapest and fastest energy we can deploy -- like solar, wind, and battery storage -- can compete on a level playing field with fossil fuels.

Spreading holiday cheer by sharing an uplifting piece of news.

"Through November, 92% of new power capacity added to the grid in 2025 came in the form of solar, wind, or storage, according to Cleanview analysis of U.S. Energy Information Administration data shared with Canary Media."

Trump spent much of 2025 boosting fossil fuels and blocking renewables, but 92% of new power additions through November were solar, wind, or batteries.

A #cleanenergy economy story in two parts:

Picture 1 = Despite the policy uncertainty, 2025 has seen nearly as many #cleanenergy project announcements as 2024. Proof that momentum for progress continues.
December 19, 2025 at 3:03 PM
Instead of "red" vs "blue" the only thing we want to see in 2026 is green, clean energy; a proven sector generating quality jobs for communities across America.

Investing in clean energy means investing in domestic industrial power and quality jobs for millions of Americans. #WednesdayWisdom

Last week, Michelle Knox, the owner of WindSolarUSA, Inc. who's helping bring affordable, clean energy to Illinois, joined E2 to show members of the House and Senate that clean energy is good for the economy and environment in every state, city, and town in America.
December 16, 2025 at 2:31 PM
Through November, we've seen nearly 3x more private sector project cancellations compared to announcements in the #cleanenergy economy in 2025.

Despite seeing the fewest cancellations of any month, a negative policy environment continues the trend of economic losses outweighing potential gains.

ICYMI, last week, the Trump administration announced their decision to make 🚗 & 🛻 less fuel efficient. Driving up the cost of...driving for millions of Americans.

Backing clean energy is not a "left" or "right" policy issue. Democratic and Republican districts will both suffer if we continue to pull back from the clean economy.

A message to lawmakers: Don't leave the United States behind as the rest of the world 🌍 shifts to a clean energy future.

@CanaryMediaInc covered the rise in grid storage over the last 8 years.

But did you know that as of last year, there are nearly 170,000 workers employed in the storage and grid sector? That's more than all the painters working in the U.S., according to our annual Clean Jobs America report.
