2013 - The Year of Clean Air

      The single most important thing you can do to help fight air pollution and help the Black and Gold City go Green is switch to clean, renewable energy.

      PennFuture has teamed up with Community Energy to create a special program Duquesne Light customers - Sign up for 100% Pennsylvania-generated clean, renewable energy  and Community Energy will make a donation to PennFuture.

      PennFuture and Community Energy have worked together creating the programs and policies that built the wind and solar farms that have made our state a leader in clean energy. Now you can join that team, by choosing 100% locally-made Pennsylvania wind and solar power.

      Sign up now!

      You will be making a great choice for the environment and you'll also:

    -  Help create jobs for Pennsylvanian's
    -  Support family farmers who host renewable energy projects
    -  Make our energy grid more secure, and
    -  Build our green energy economy

      Remember, reducing your energy usage is one of the most important things you can do to mitigate climate change and improve our air quality, plus it helps you save money!


Energy Stealers: Change how you use energy!
Changing how you use energy and where you get your energy from are the two most important actions we can take to mitigate climate change. We want to help you save as much energy as possible. Some appliances and electronics in your home continue to steal energy even after they've been turned OFF. Tackle these Energy Stealers by unplugging appliances with clocks and lights that remain on. And while we've got you thinking about Energy Stealers, watch THIS VIDEO from last year's Tackle-A-Stealer Competition.
