Accelerating Clean Technologies and Smart Grid

Reducing global CO2 emissions at the speed and scale necessary requires a broad range of technologies working across all sectors of the economy.

The clean-tech industry is teeming with opportunities to revolutionize our energy sector. New technologies in storage, batteries, and an array of new devices will not only accelerate the integration of renewable energy into our grid, but will also make our grid flexible, resilient, and modern. Utah Clean Energy works with utilities, developers, and cities to pave the way for the rapid deployment of these new technologies.

NOTICE: WE ARE NOT A SOLAR COMPANY

We would like to clarify that Utah Clean Energy is not a solar company. We are a nonprofit organization that advocates for solar and other clean energy technologies, but we do not install or sell solar in any way.
 
Utah Clean Energy Association is not affiliated with our work. This is a sales group that despite our best efforts to get them to stop, continues to use our name in their advertising. We encourage you to report them to Google Ads as misleading. The company that reached out to you is likely a solar company that purchased your contact information as a lead. You may consider reporting that company to the Better Business Bureau for using misleading sales tactics also.
 
We apologize for any confusion this may have caused and appreciate your understanding.
 
Thank you,

The Utah Clean Energy team
