About Philadelphia Energy Authority
The Philadelphia Energy Authority is a leading organization in the clean energy sector, providing innovative solutions for a sustainable future. With its Philadelphia Energy Campaign, the Authority aims to reduce Philadelphia’s carbon footprint by leveraging $1 billion in public and private financing to invest in clean energy and energy efficiency projects in four key sectors: public schools, small businesses, city buildings, and affordable residential.
The Authority offers a range of programs, including Solarize Philly, a citywide program that helps all Philadelphians embrace solar energy. Through the program, the Authority makes the process of installing solar easy and affordable.
Additionally, the Authority operates the Water and Sewer Line Protection Program that offers unlimited coverage for water and sewer lines for a low monthly cost of $9. 89 per month.
The Authority works with established companies, investors, and entrepreneurs to bring about sustainable economic development. The clean energy jobs provided by the Authority are already outpacing the number of fossil fuel jobs, advancing its goal of alleviating poverty and improving public health as well as offering solar consultation, and education programs.
