Energizing a Brighter Resilient Future
Changing Times Require Steady Leadership
Help support NCSEA’s mission for clean, affordable energy solutions
As we look back on a year of both challenges and progress in our fight for policies that make clean energy more attainable for all, we are reminded of one thing: the power of community. Together, we have tackled policy issues, championed clean energy, and made strides toward a sustainable future. We need your support now more than ever.
This year, our goal is ambitious: to expand our clean energy initiatives, impact the lives of all North Carolinians, and advocate for stronger policies. These efforts are not just projects; they are lifelines for our members and North Carolinians. In 2025, NCSEA continued to fulfill our mission to drive public policy and economic development for sustainable energy through engagement with our individual and business members, advocacy efforts, our collection of data that helps inform decisionmakers, our partnerships with nonprofits and government entities, and through our commitment to telling the clean energy stories of North Carolina residents from all walks of life.
Why Your Support Matters:

Our mission is to drive policy and market development to create clean energy jobs, economic opportunities, and affordable energy that benefits all of North Carolina.
-
- Member Engagement: With your help, NCSEA will represent our members, from the large solar installers to the new energy efficient homebuilder in a small town, creating a sustainable environment for all.
-
- Advocacy and Education: We aim to empower more individuals with knowledge and tools to be effective stewards of clean energy. Your contribution supports our outreach and networking programs, including our Making Energy Work Conference.
We believe that a strong clean energy ecosystem in North Carolina is within reach, but we cannot do it alone. Together, we can make a meaningful difference. We invite you to be a part of the journey to help us power a more sustainable future for all.

It helps reduce the strain on the electrical grid and lasts for decades with little to no maintenance. 8M Solar is proud to be a leader in the North Carolina residential and commercial solar revolution and NCSEA has been a great partner in helping ensure policies stay favorable for continued proliferation of clean energy across the state and region."
