Clean Energy & Climate

Our Top Priorities for State Legislatures in 2026

We advocate for public policies

that fight climate change across our region and beyond.

NATIONAL

Should we reflect sunlight away from the Earth? With global temperatures spiking ever higher, CCAN supports careful research into geoengineering, following the lead of the world's top scientists. 

DC

The Public Service Commission regulates the District’s utilities – Pepco and Washington Gas – and has the power to make or break our climate commitments. Check CCAN’s Docket Dispatch to see if PSC is keeping up with the task.

MARYLAND

Solar energy is the fastest and most cost effective way to build new electricity generation. Solar energy has the ability to lower utility bills, stabilize costs, and provide clean energy for a decarbonized future.

VIRGINIA

A new statewide poll conducted by Global Strategy Group shows that a whopping 92% of likely voters in Virginia believe state lawmakers are failing to properly manage the rapid growth of data centers in the Commonwealth. They want action!
