Join the First Unitarian Church of Salt Lake and HEAL Utah for the presentation Boosting Renewables: eUtah and CCA.
Only 4% of electricity produced in Utah comes from renewable energy sources. This ranks us seventh out of eight Western States. Idaho and Wyoming are at 15% and 13%. Utah, despite its bountiful wind, sunshine and geothermal resources, lags behind the region and nation.
According to polls, 80-85% of Utahns want to get more of our electricity from renewable sources.
One possible solution is the community-based energy buying mechanism called Community Choice Aggregation. Learn about CCA and how it could help bring renewable energy to Utah at an affordable price.
