NJPEEC
New Jersey Progressive Equitable Energy Coalition (NJPEEC) advocates for a 100% clean energy transition that keeps energy affordable and accessible for all New Jersey families, while creating good jobs and protecting the health of systematically marginalized and overburdened low income populations and communities of color.


ABOUT US
As a Black and Brown led coalition we work to bridge the equity gap in energy and climate justice arenas to ensure inclusivity from the inception to implementation of policies and proposed energy reforms. We engage stakeholders in utilizing an “Equity Lens” to understand the impact, sense of urgency, and landscape of proposed policies on local communities statewide. We advocate for and educate the local community so that they are at the forefront of energy conversations that impact health, affordability and opportunity.
