Act 129 was signed by Gov. Ed Rendell in October of 2008. Learn what that can mean for your home or business.
Changing how we use and make energy are essential to restoring our environment and growing our economy.
That’s the job of the Center for Energy, Enterprise and the Environment at PennFuture. It’s a job we know and do well, with staff expertise that is unmatched.
Since our formation, PennFuture has been the leader – advocating for renewable energy, building the market and creating the public will to move the renewable industry forward. When there was no renewable energy industry in Pennsylvania, we assisted at its birth, helping build wind farms, solar arrays, methane digesters and more. We worked with policy makers across the state and across the nation, helping change public policy to make renewable energy Pennsylvania ’s energy leader. We led educational campaigns to convince large institutions, businesses and individual consumers to buy green, and we
helped spread the word through the media about those purchases and the industry behind them.
We work toward broad legislative and regulatory changes that will be felt long term. Staffed by nationally respected energy experts, and as the leader in gaining passage of the first state law to expressly promote renewable energy, the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act, PennFuture and the Center find that each new public policy initiative that we sponsor enjoys immediate credibility.
We now stand ready to do more. Please join us.
