Government Communities
The Energy Coalition (TEC) partners with cities, counties, special districts and other government communities to implement a broad spectrum of energy-related policies and practices. These innovative efforts create energy-related jobs, save money and improve the health and quality of life for all members of the community.
Our energy architects help you custom design strategies that target the specific needs of your community. To ensure success, we bring a wealth of policy leadership and practical tools and strategies that generate savings and create accountable energy communities.
When needed, TEC attracts energy funding opportunities to benefit your community and taps its network of energy stakeholder to create innovative cross-sector partnerships.
