The NC GreenPower Speakers Bureau was created to help carry the message
of our mission to all corners of North Carolina. Comprising more
than 75 speakers statewide, the Bureau provides free presentations
to any group, business or organization that has an interest in learning
more about clean energy alternatives, carbon offsets and their benefits to the people
of this state. The Bureau also strives to increase participation in
the NC GreenPower program and thus provide economic, environmental
and health benefits to all citizens of North Carolina. The NC GreenPower Speakers Bureau was created to help meet the demands for presentations to various groups throughout North Carolina. The purpose of the Speakers Bureau is to educate North Carolinians about renewable energy, carbon offsets and their availability through NC GreenPower. It also generates participation in NC GreenPower through corporate and residential contributions.
Who are the speakers?
The speakers include NC GreenPower representatives, economists, environmentalists, electric utility representatives, renewable energy advocates and generators, government officials, and others. Anyone may be trained to serve as a volunteer for the Speakers Bureau. The group was recruited to help meet the demands
for presentations to various groups throughout North Carolina, including:
- Civic groups
- Environmental groups
- Schools
- Faith-based organizations
- Government and policy groups
- Professional organizations and advocacy groups
- Small business and non-profit organizations
- Outdoor interest groups
- Healthcare organizations
- Utility memberships
- and many more
How does the Speakers Bureau work?
When approached by an individual or organization wishing to host a presentation, NC GreenPower will contact the appropriate speaker(s) to check on availability and to schedule that speaker. The presenter will then contact the host to determine specific logistics, audio-visual needs, etc.
How much does a speaker cost?
There is no cost to secure a speaker.
