As we near the end of 2025 and SACE’s 40th anniversary, we’re reflecting on four decades of working together to secure a future with safer, cleaner, more affordable energy for all. We’re filled with gratitude for every supporter who has walked alongside us, turning vision into reality and persistence into progress.

These 40 years haven’t always been easy. We’ve faced threats, navigated rollbacks, and weathered political storms – as we’re doing again now. Yet through it all, clean energy has continued to advance – a testament to the power of dedicated supporters and advocates like you and the undeniable momentum of the Clean Energy Generation movement. Today, your partnership is more important than ever as we work to bring safe, reliable, and affordable clean energy to communities across the Southeast.

In this season of gratitude, we pause to thank you for being part of our mission. Your support has helped transform what once seemed impossible into everyday reality: solar panels gleaming on Southern rooftops, communities taking control of their energy futures, and a growing chorus of voices demanding better for our region.

The five features that follow showcase the reality of this ongoing work – from pushing against utility plans that reward investors at the expense of families and small businesses, to celebrating hard-won victories in rural communities and across our states, to accelerating the growth of clean transportation. Each battle fought and each win secured brings us closer to the future we’re building together.

Now, imagine with us what the next 40 years can bring. Picture thriving coastal communities protected from rising seas. Envision Southeastern cities and small towns powered by the sun, where clean air is a given and energy bills don’t force impossible choices. See what we see – the new generation of energy champions, of all ages and abilities, stepping up, equipped and empowered to carry this work forward. This isn’t just a dream – it’s the tangible future we are already building together.

Please join us in celebrating our past and powering our future. Consider making a gift today to be a force in turning the next 40 years of possibility into reality.
