Tell TVA to Act on Climate!

November 3, 2021 by Ted Jackson

Tell TVA to Act on Climate!

Solar Photovoltaics

Submit a Comment below to the November 10th Tennessee Valley Authority Board Meeting.

As world leaders gather in Glasgow for the UN Climate Conference, it is clear that we need to rapidly transition from fossil fuels.

Our efforts have had an impact in Tennessee – TVA has recently announced it will be closing all of its coal plants before 2035.  Unfortunately, they are currently favoring replacing these plants with natural gas – rather than the solar option.

The TVA Board will meet on November 10. Since the beginning of the pandemic they have not been hosting listening sessions. So, instead we are gathering comments to submit to TVA. These comments will also be submitted to TVA’s federal oversight bodies – the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works.

Please consider taking a moment and submit a brief comment to TVA – using the button. We are collecting comments through the Tennessee Energy Democracy coalition.
