1/ 🚨 Big news! Today we officially launched the Public Renewables Project -- a new climate org calling for publicly financed, publicly developed renewable energy. I’m honored to serve as Executive Director. 🌞⚡️

4/ Check out our new report: Public Option Solar for K-12 Schools, coauthored w @climaterealityproject.org and @generation180.bsky.social. The Connecticut Green Bank's public developer model is a high-impact, scalable opportunity that all 50 states can replicate.

3/ Built to serve the public good, public renewables lower energy bills, create good union jobs, and invest in communities — empowering public developers to equitably decarbonize society. And there’s precedent: public finance agencies have built water + sewage infrastructure for over a century.

2/ Public renewables can be built by green banks & development finance agencies who have access to low-cost capital. Free from profit-seeking constraints, public developers can pool projects, cut costs, and plan comprehensively for rapid decarbonization.

📣 Launching the Public Renewables Project! 📣
1/ We’re a new climate organization advancing publicly financed, publicly developed clean energy to accelerate the renewables transition, lower costs, and increase worker power.
