Looking Up at the Future of Clean Energy

A wide, overhead group photo on the New York Stock Exchange trading floor shows ACORE board members, staff, and guests gathered beneath the NYSE and CNBC broadcast booths. ACORE branding is displayed on large digital screens throughout the trading floor as attendees look up and smile at the camera, commemorating ACORE's 25th anniversary and Opening Bell ceremony.

We at ACORE have a very positive view on the state of clean energy after watching our President and CEO, Ray Long, and several members of our Board ring the Opening Bell to open the New York Stock Exchange on July 29.

Being on the trading floor, walking up to the podium, and pushing the button to ring that iconic Bell was a huge milestone for ACORE, our members, and the clean energy industry.

The people on the podium represent the diversity of the ACORE membership – representatives of clean energy producers, financial institutions, energy buyers, startups, planners, and builders.

For 25 years, ACORE has brought pragmatism, conversations, and solutions that have helped clean energy become such an important part of our economy. It was an honor to celebrate our 25th anniversary at the NYSE. 

This week, we rang the Bell. Next week and onward, we keep pushing for our vision of an electrified economy powered by clean energy that supports an improved quality of life for all. 

We hope you’ll join us!
