Clean Energy Advocacy

Energy is a highly regulated and policy-driven industry, in part because it affects the livelihood of each person who flips a switch, drives a car, or holds a cell phone.

In Iowa, energy policy is overseen largely by the Legislature and the Iowa Utilities Board, a governor-appointed board of 3 individuals. The mission of the IUB is to “regulate utilities to ensure that reasonably priced, reliable, environmentally responsible, and safe utility services are available to all Iowans.”

Your Energy District is a member of the the Clean Energy Districts of Iowa whose mission is to strengthen and spread the clean Energy District model by providing critical services to member districts, and creating a policy mechanism to authorize and fund clean energy districts at the state and federal levels. For updates on state energy policy, subscribe the Clean Energy Districts of Iowa newsletter.
