Draft NC Energy Plan released for public comment.

The NC Clean Energy plan https://deq.nc.gov/cleanenergyplan is now open for public comment until September 7, 2019. DEQ produced the plan with broad statewide participation. I am honored to have been a stakeholder in this process. I encourage you to ride the wave, review the plan and provide feedback to help North Carolina attract more economic growth, reduces carbon emissions, lower energy burden and make our state more resilient!

Governor Cooper’s Executive Order 80 tasked the Department of Environmental Quality with producing the state’s Clean Energy Plan. Once public comments have been reviewed, the final plan will be presented to Governor Cooper by October 1, the deadline set by EO80.
