COATESVILLEā€”Coatesville was once a local industry leader, but the steel industry only employs a fraction of the employees that it once did. Communities like Coatesville are now turning to solar to grow economies.

There will be a Time to Invest in Local Solar Jobs! rally on Tuesday, July 16, at 3:30 p.m. at the Exelon Power Labs location at 157 North Caln Road, Coatesville.

Featured speakers include state Rep. Dan Williams, Stephen Reynolds from Solar City and Alvin Herring from Family Service of Chester County.
