New York, NY – Today, ACORE celebrated 25 years by ringing The Opening Bell at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), marking an important milestone and sending a clear message that clean energy is a foundational economic engine of the 21st century.

“When ACORE was founded 25 years ago, our goal was to prove the economic case for clean power. Today, as we ring the bell at the New York Stock Exchange, we are celebrating the reality that clean energy is now the cheapest, most reliable, and most scalable source of power available,” said ACORE President and CEO Ray Long. “Our focus remains on the future. We are facing unprecedented electricity demand growth, and we need to deploy capital faster than ever before to build the grid of tomorrow. The financial momentum is here, and the clean energy economy is ready to deliver the abundant, low-cost power our nation demands.”

Founded in 2001, ACORE was the first organization dedicated to expanding the pan-renewable economy in the United States. For 25 years, ACORE has worked toward its vision of an electrified economy powered by clean energy that supports an improved quality of life for all. Today, ACORE members are the investment engine behind the massive clean energy deployment that is helping ensure that Americans’ energy needs are met.

Can’t swear that this is true but hoping so.

We must never forget.

The more visibility and the more frequent reminders we can get on this catastrophe in U.S. history the better.

It’s almost funny when we hear that California is a socialist state, or a police state (due to our environmental restrictions), or that people are leaving in droves to go to Texas or Florida.  When I come across people who say this, I wonder: have you ever actually been to California?

Do you know that the garden-variety 3 BR, 2 BA house here lists at about $1.2 million, where, if it were moved to, say, the Midwest, it would be worth perhaps $2500,000?  Why do you think that could possibly be?  Maybe the law of supply and demand doesn’t apply to the Marxist part of the nation?

Perhaps it’s because Californians are offered fantastic economic opportunities. We develop and implement ideas that improve the lives of everyone on Earth, and that we profit greatly from our undertakings.

Something for the MAGA crowd to consider.
