The Energy Coalition (TEC) is a California-based non-profit 501(c)3 organization that empowers governments, businesses and schools to be energy-responsible communities.
The accountable energy community is a sustainable community, energy-smart in every way from policy to everyday practices.
How TEC Works
Engage – Collaborate – Capitalize
The energy architects at TEC are collaborators, forging cross-sector partnerships essential for enduring energy success.
We listen to local energy goals, articulate your specific energy challenges and architect community energy plans with solutions. TEC connects you with today’s energy innovators. If needed, we attract energy funding opportunities for you and your project.
TEC puts savvy, creative people with deep energy management experience on the ground. These experts are vital for effective program implementation and for activating accountable energy practices as a core community value.
We generate the working capital, social capital and thought capital that powers energy communities.
Sustaining Communities: Working Capital
TEC’s practical, visionary energy architects work in partnership with you, creating a blueprint for your unique accountable energy community. Together we identify, define and shape community-specific energy strategies, policies and practices. The direct results are reduced energy costs that translate into working capital available for reinvestment into other critical community needs and priorities.
Strengthening Communities: Social Capital
TEC identifies the energy interests within your community. Working on the ground, we activate a spirit of shared purpose that enriches and strengthens your community through local energy issues. Your community creates a story to share and gains its social capital.
Connecting the Dots: Thought Capital
Over 30 years of management experience and active energy leadership means TEC has accrued a network of utility and global energy partners and an unmatched reservoir of energy ideas and expertise. Working with TEC you connect your community to, and help build, the available store of thought capital that is needed to create energy accountable communities.
Being an accountable community is not a choice for modern living or for our earth – it is the only option.
