$11 trillion investment over the next few decades!

Minnesota and New Mexico make headlines with 100% clean energy pledges, and utilities spanning state lines are setting their own carbon-reduction goals.

So, what's next? Community Energy Inc. (CEI) is celebrating its 20th anniversary as a leading clean energy project developer. The company is responsible for many of the largest and "first-ever" wind and solar projects across the country. In the process, CEI has developed best practices and strategies for how to effectively deliver renewable energy to utility, commercial and residential customers.

Brent Alderfer, CEO and Co-Founder of CEI speaks to that simple yet essential question of "what's next", as stakeholders across sectors and geographies work towards the decarbonization of our energy systems.
