The nonprofit Center for Resource Solutions (CRS) presented the 2024 Green Power Leadership Awards today, awarding two organizations and two individuals for their roles in promoting and expanding the use of clean, renewable energy. The awards were presented during the Renewable Energy Markets 2024 conference in Denver in the categories of Market Development, Leadership in Education, and Leader of the Year.
“This year’s Green Power Leadership Award winners are helping ensure communities close to home and globally are benefitting from increased energy equity,” said Jennifer Martin, executive director of CRS, which co-presents the annual awards with the U.S. EPA. “These leaders are promoting the benefits of clean energy for underserved communities, while also ensuring that the largest corporate buyers are doing their share to increase renewable procurement and drive increased adoption.”
