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.

Congressman Patrick McHenry, a Republican representing North Carolina's 10th Congressional District, received a federal clean energy champion award for his long-standing support of clean-energy policies and innovation.
ABB E-mobility received a clean energy champion award for its sustained efforts to inform North Carolina's legislators, governor, state agency heads, and other decision makers about the importance of pro-electric transportation policies and programs.

"Year after year, North Carolina has been one of the top states in the country for clean energy jobs and economic investment," said Ryan Evans, Executive Director of Chambers for Innovation and Clean Energy.
