RALEIGH, N.C. - ncarol.com -- North Carolina's 2023 Clean Energy Champions include a state legislator, a member of Congress, two economic development organizations, and two North Carolina businesses.
State Rep. Kyle Hall, a Republican representing Forsyth and Stokes counties, received a state legislative leader award, issued jointly by Conservatives for Clean Energy North Carolina and Chambers for Innovation and Clean Energy.
