The Renewables Council of Louisiana and the Louisiana Renewable Energy Industries Association joined together to form this statewide non-profit to support the development of a new economic engine for our state.

The Louisiana CleanTech Network works with all stakeholders to promote the growth of clean technology businesses in Louisiana and to encourage environmentally responsible economic development.

Our mission is to facilitate the formation and growth of new companies, as well as the retooling of existing businesses, to capitalize on the rapidly expanding market for clean technologies, whether in research and development, manufacturing, distribution, sales, or maintenance.
