This Republican Campaigned on Renewables and Won [Special Episode from Energy News Network]

This week, we present a special episode brought to you by the Energy News Network.

We profile State Senator Bob Steinburg, a local North Carolina politician who spent a lot of time in his republican primary campaign talking about the benefits of renewable energy. 

We also talk with Elizabeth Outzs, a journalist at the Energy News Network, who covered Steinburg’s campaign.

“What we’re seeing in the way politicians are behaving and the way that people are responding to these polls is that clean energy is increasingly like mom and apple pie,” says Ouzts.

Read Elizabeth’s story about the campaign here.
