To celebrate the 50th episode of the Squeaky Clean Energy Podcast, we’re sitting down with Governor Roy Cooper to discuss his ongoing support for clean energy throughout the years, starting with his time at the North Carolina General Assembly (NCGA). We dig deep into Executive Order 80 and the progress we’ve made, while re-emphasizing the need for a strong legislative commitment to reach our state’s goals. We also chat briefly on the plans for offshore wind development in North Carolina as it is central to Cooper’s latest Executive Order 218 which was issued yesterday. Also mentioned in this episode is NCSEA’s 2021 report with RTI International featuring data on the economic impact of clean energy in North Carolina. The report will be released later this month and can be found at www.energync.org/publication Presented by NC Sustainable Energy Association.
