The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is a giant wake-up call that we need to put state and federal policies in place to transition away from fossil fuels and end our reliance on oil.

The Clean Energy Congress will bring ideas and policy recommendations to the forefront by bringing together a collaboration of businesses and non-governmental organizations advancing the low carbon economy by fostering the clean tech sector and clean energy alternatives.

Our goal is to grow Florida’s economy by:

  • Positioning Florida as a national and international leader in clean technologies:
  • Creating Good Paying Jobs
  • Providing Educational Opportunities and Worker Retraining
  • Making Florida Universities important Centers for Research
  • Make our Economy more Efficient by Conserving Energy and Water Resources
