Philadelphia Green Power Community Challenge Launch

You are invited to the launch of the Philadelphia Green Power Community Challenge!  

The City of Philadelphia, local green power purchasers, and green power providers have embarked on a campaign to dramatically increase voluntary use of renewable energy within the City of Philadelphia.  On Wednesday, June 20th, EPA’s Green Power Partnership will be making an important announcement about the City of Philadelphia’s tremendous success in calling on residents, businesses and organizations to partner with the City in leading the way in renewable energy use.  As the fifth largest city in the U.S., Philadelphia is sending a powerful message to its neighbors—that using green power is a smart choice for our environment and our economy.
 
Also on the 20th, the City of Philadelphia will launch its 2012 Green Power Community Challenge to encourage citizens and organizations to help Philadelphia become the largest EPA Green Power Community in America!  EPA Regional Administrator Shawn Garvin, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, Philadelphia Deputy Mayor of Transportation and Utilities Rina Cutler, and Phillies President David Montgomery will be speaking at the event, and we hope to see you there.
 
Please join us for this exciting announcement and reception, hosted by the Philadelphia Phillies organization, along with other Philadelphia-area Green Power Partners, green power providers and local business leaders on Wednesday, June 20th, at 11:00 am.
