State Representative Marcus C. Evans, Jr.

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending the Clean Energy Leadership Institute (CELI) Bright Spots Meeting, hosted by Nexamp.

It was a great opportunity to connect with leaders across the energy sector and discuss the future of clean energy innovation and workforce development.

Thank You to Zaid Ashai, CEO of Nexamp, and Jessica Collingsworth, Central Policy Director at Nexamp, for the invitation. I also appreciate the insights shared by an outstanding panel of experts: Mark Frigo, VP of Energy Storage at Nexamp; Kavi Chintam, Illinois Campaign Manager at Vote Solar; and JC Kibbey, Climate Advisor for the State of Illinois.

Illinois continues to lead the way in the clean energy transition. Through landmark legislation like the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA) and the Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability Act (CRGA), we're expanding economic opportunity, creating good-paying jobs, strengthening our energy future, and helping lower costs for families across the 33rd District and throughout our state. ⚡️🔌🔋💡💨🍃

Together, we're building a cleaner, stronger, and more affordable energy future for Illinois.

I love the people of my community and proud to serve them!!
