The Community Power Plan is our five-year strategic roadmap for designing and delivering local energy programs that meet the unique needs of our communities. These programs support energy education, electrification of buildings and transportation as well as increased energy efficiency.
By identifying program gaps and prioritizing what matters most to residents and businesses, the Community Power Plan helps Community Power deliver high-impact, equitable solutions.
To ensure accessibility, the full Community Power Plan is available in three languages:
The development of the Community Power Plan took place between July 2022 and May 2023. From the beginning, Community Power focused on engaging community members to better understand local priorities, needs and barriers to participation.
This input was combined with a market assessment and a review of potential programs to identify strategies that fill existing gaps. After a program prioritization process and funding analysis, a draft plan was created and shared publicly for community feedback.
