Energy Future Coalition

What We're Doing

The Energy Future Coalition's strength is its ability to bring together diverse stakeholder groups to effect meaningful change in the energy sector. From its inception, the Coalition has built successful partnerships to promote clean energy, developed innovative business approaches to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and promoted high-level stakeholder engagement in the clean energy sector, as described further below.

Projects

Energy Efficiency

Energy efficiency is a golden opportunity for the United States to embark on a new clean energy path in a way that boosts the economy, creates jobs, and helps the environment at half the cost of building new power plants. But we need to change the rules to incentivize energy efficiency to make it the first fuel of choice.  Learn why investments in energy efficiency are a vital component of national energy policy.

The Smart Grid

The U.S. power grid—our system for moving electricity from power plants to homes and offices—needs to be digitized and modernized.  Revamping the grid should be a national priority to enhance its security, enable large scale renewable energy deployment, and reduce efficiency losses. Learn more about how national, state, and local policies can bring about a secure, efficient, and intelligent digital grid.

Renewable Energy: 25x'25

America's farms, forests, and ranches can provide 25% of America's energy by 2025. Renewable energy can reduce our use of imported oil, is better for the environment, and creates new jobs in rural and manufacturing communities. Learn how plants can be turned into transportation fuels, how the sun can power homes, and how wind is already making a difference in states like Texas and Florida.

Clean Energy Development

More than two billion people worldwide live without access to modern energy services that they desperately need to improve their lives. New financing mechanisms could help bridge the energy divide and bring vital energy resources to these underserved populations. Find out about the Coalition's innovative financing proposal and the role it could play in delivering energy services to the developing world.
