SUMMARY:National Drive Electric Week
DESCRIPTION:The number of electric cars registered in Pennsylvania increased 50 percent in 2018. Although electric vehicles are still a small fraction of registered vehicles\, the trend is clear: More Pennsylvanians want to drive electric vehicles for work and personal use. \nLocal governments\, businesses\, and residents are increasingly interested in the lifetime cost savings: Electric vehicles need less maintenance than gasoline or diesel vehicles and cost 50 – 70 percent less to fuel. Many want to drive these zero-emission vehicles to help improve air quality in their communities. Others want to do their part to reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and slow climate change. \nMost people have a lot of questions about driving electric vehicles: What are they like to drive? How far will they go on a charge? Where are the charging stations? Is there any financial assistance to buy an electric vehicle or install a charger? Are electric trucks available? \nJoin us for this free webinar series on the benefits and basics of driving electric in Pennsylvania. Our broad range of speakers\, including both experts and new converts\, will answer your questions\, share their knowledge and experiences\, and get you as close to driving electric as virtually possible!

SUMMARY:Clean and Renewable Energy is Essential to National Security with Dr. John Lehman\, Former Secretary of the Navy
DESCRIPTION:Dr. John Lehman\, former Secretary of the Navy will give a presentation on Clean and Renewable Energy is Essential to National Security! \nDr. John Lehman came to know that renewable energy sources were essential to the security of the United States as a result of the findings of the 9/11 Commission on which he served. \nThe findings indicated that our energy grid is open to enemy attack\, both physical and cyber. As we have gained energy independence\, our grid is more secure\, but still susceptible to attack. \nOur military bases and forces having the capability to provide energy independent of the grid will make them safer and have the ability to continue operations should the grid go down. \nDr. Lehman has not only talked the talked\, but walked the walk by installing a solar field on his property in eastern Pennsylvania. It has been an expensive and long process due to complaints from neighbors\, but he has prevailed and is looking to add additional solar in the future. \nDuring this Town Hall you will hear from the man Ronald Reagan trusted to build the U.S. Navy into a modern force which stood against our enemies during the Cold War and prevailed.
