Reporter Tom Johnson Secure Prestigious Solar Awards

Trenton, NJ – The Mid-Atlantic Solar & Storage Industries Association (MSSIA)* is proud to announce two remarkable individuals — Tom Johnson of NJ Spotlight (and formally of the Star Ledger / nj.com) and the late NJBPU President Joseph L. Fiordaliso — have been awarded the prestigious Chapin, Fuller, Pearson Medal in recognition of their accomplishments as champions of solar and honest democratic dialogue.

“Whether it’s speaking truth to power or just the facts, these two champions of solar and informed debate have been awarded a rare distinction, their tireless dedication and exceptional contributions have helped shape New Jersey’s solar industry and set a standard for future progress,” said MSSIA President Lyle Rawlings.

The Chapin, Fuller, Pearson Medal Reception, celebrating extraordinary contributions to the advancement of solar energy, will take place on new date in December to be announced  and will honor the legacy of the three pioneering scientists—Daryl Chapin, Calvin Fuller, and Gerald Pearson—who, in 1954 at Bell Laboratories in Berkeley Heights, NJ, invented the modern photovoltaic cell, forever changing the landscape of energy.

The Chapin, Fuller, Pearson Medal, named in their honor, has been awarded sparingly over the past twelve years to those who have made transformative impacts on the solar industry in the Mid-Atlantic Region. Previous recipients of the Medal include Assemblyman Upendra Chivukula (later NJBPU Commissioner), Senator Bob Smith, and NJBPU President Jeanne Fox.

“This event is not just about honoring past achievements; it’s about inspiring future innovations in solar energy,” added Rawlings. “Tom Johnson and President Fiordaliso have been instrumental in advancing solar initiatives, and we are thrilled to celebrate their legacy.”

The event will be held at Jasna Polana in Princeton, offering a unique opportunity for industry leaders, policymakers, and community members to come together and celebrate these champions of solar energy. Attendees will also have the chance to network with key figures in the renewable energy sector and explore opportunities for furthering solar innovation in the region.

MSSIA extends its deep gratitude to the event’s sponsors, including Advanced Solar Products, IBEW Local 400, Ecological Systems, ConnectDER, Greenskies Clean Focus, and NJPACE. Additional sponsorship opportunities are still available for those who wish to be part of this momentous occasion. Sponsorship packages start at just $250. Don’t miss this chance to be part of an inspiring evening that honors the past and looks towards a brighter, solar-powered future. Register today at www.mssia.org
