SHARE Partnership
Albany UU members helped found the Sheridan Hollow Alliance for Renewable Energy (SHARE) in 2017 in response to a proposed fossil fuel expansion project in Albany’s Sheridan Hollow neighborhood.
SHARE brings together community members and partners working for a renewable energy future and environmental justice in the Capital Region. Albany UU members remain actively involved in this ongoing work.
SHARE now focuses on advancing the Renewable Capital Act and supporting efforts to transition New York’s Capitol complex to clean, renewable energy.
