Current renewable energy goals often create a perverse disincentive, leading organizations to purchase ineffective renewable energy certificates rather than deploying local rooftop or community solar. This approach fails to physically clean the electric grid.

These funds should be reallocated to solutions that enable a physically 100% renewable electric grid and decarbonization, fostering local workforce development, utility savings, and resilient infrastructure.

Jonathan Rogers, Denver's Renewable Energy Specialist, spearheads these efforts, guiding the city towards its 2030 goal for 100% renewable electricity. This talk was presented at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.
