AFFORDABLE ENERGY: It’s time to address the fact that Virginians pay some of the highest electric bills in the nation. High energy burdens are linked with greater health risks, increased stress and economic hardship, and difficulty moving out of poverty. Our energy future should include affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy for all Virginians.
CLEAN ENERGY: We’re up against a climate emergency, but Virginia can lead the way towards a liveable future by investing in energy efficiency and renewable and distributed energy sources like rooftop solar. We need to get to reduce our carbon intensity and get to Net Zero at the earliest. No goal is ambitious enough, the time to address these problems was yesterday.
CONSUMER PROTECTION: As our energy system changes, we need to ensure consumers, especially those already burdened by energy expenses and the climate crisis, are not the ones footing the bill.
