SUMMARY:SCDN Policy Connection: Solar Strategies for Local Governments
DESCRIPTION:Join Sustainable Pittsburgh for a timely webinar on how Pennsylvania communities can harness solar energy to strengthen budgets\, expand clean energy access\, and build local resilience. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWith rising energy costs and a shifting federal policy landscape\, municipalities across the state are seeking reliable\, cost-effective solutions to power essential services. Solar power presents a powerful opportunity. Not only to stabilize operating costs for schools\, libraries\, and municipal buildings\, but also to expand equity through community-scale projects that benefit renters and low-income households. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis webinar will explore how local governments can leverage Pennsylvania’s net metering policies\, state grant programs\, and technical assistance resources to make solar adoption more attainable. Experts will share practical models\, funding strategies\, and planning approaches that help municipalities lead on clean energy. We’ll highlight how solar can support a stronger\, more resilient\, and more equitable future for Pennsylvania communities. \n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers\n\n\n\n\nBethany Ayers Fisher\, Sustainability Manager | City of Reading\n\n\n\nLeo Kowalski\, Director of Transformation | Pennsylvania Solar Center\n\n\n\nEric Raabe\, Director of Infrastructure and Resilience | CONNECT\n\n\n\nACCESS SPEAKER BIOS\n\n\n\n\nWho Should Attend \n\n\n\n\nMunicipal staff\n\n\n\nLocal elected officials\n\n\n\nSustainability professionals\n\n\n\nOther stakeholders\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
