Now more than ever before, clean energy is powering homes and businesses across Utah. Recognizing this, Gov. Spencer Cox recently issued a proclamation celebrating Sept. 25-29 as Clean Energy Week in the state of Utah.
Utah embraces an all-of-the-above energy portfolio: renewable sources produce 16% of the state’s electricity generation, and Utah is home to the nation’s only uranium ore mill still in operation. The governor recognizes the economic opportunity, job creation and healthier environment that comes from embracing clean energy.
The governor’s proclamation is part of a larger celebration happening across the United States.
In the nation’s capital, clean energy leaders and advocates from all perspectives will be convening to celebrate National Clean Energy Week (NCEW) and discuss innovations and policy solutions that empower America to lead the pack in reducing global emissions and securing affordable, reliable energy for all.
Thanks to Gov. Cox, Utah is an active participant in this national celebration and continues to invest in critical clean energy initiatives.
