Ohio Recognizes Clean Energy Week 2023

COLUMBUS, Ohio – In conjunction with the 7th Annual National Clean Energy Week (NCEW), Governor Mike DeWine issued a proclamation celebrating September 25-29, 2023, as Clean Energy Week in the state of Ohio.  

“Thank you, Governor Mike DeWine, for joining us in celebrating National Clean Energy Week 2023,” said Heather Reams, chair of NCEW and president of Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) Forum. “Affordable, reliable, and clean energy has become an issue on the minds of Americans across the country, from Main Street to Wall Street. In Ohio, clean energy is creating jobs, reducing emissions, and having a positive community impact. Clean Energy Week is an opportunity to celebrate the advancements made by industry leaders and advocates in Ohio and across the country.”   

“National Clean Energy Week encourages increased organizational and individual support of solutions that address America’s economic and energy needs in the 21st Century,” said Governor Mike DeWine in his proclamation. “Energy use is a necessity for all people, businesses, and organizations across the Buckeye State, and Ohio’s clean energy sources can assure low-cost, reliable energy.” 

In the proclamation, Governor DeWine recognizes that the clean energy sector provides over 103,000 jobs in Ohio. The governor also notes that the solar industry invested $250 million just in 2020.  

Last year, Governor DeWine joined nearly three quarters of the nation’s governors in issuing proclamations to recognize NCEW in their respective states. Learn more about the state proclamations here. 

NCEW was founded in 2017 as a bipartisan forum to recognize the numerous advantages clean energy production provides to local communities, from economic growth and job creation to lower emissions and a healthier environment. The week contains engaging educational programming such as the Policymakers Symposium—three days of programming—convening elected officials, business leaders, advocates, policymakers, investors, and trade associations from all perspectives who are dedicated to advancing clean energy. Journalists can register for the NCEW Policymakers Symposium HERE.
