01What it does

What The National Energy and Utility Affordability Coalition does

Mission

The National Energy and Utility Affordability Coalition (neuac) is a broad-based coalition of diverse members dedicated to heightening awareness of the energy and utility affordability needs of vulnerable households, fostering public-private partnerships, and engaging in advocacy, education, and other activities to help address these needs.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Education and training: The National Energy and Utility Affordability Coalition (neuac) has hosted an annual conference to provide education and training for utility assistance stakeholders for more than 30 years. Up to 800 attendees participate annually, spanning the country from nonprofit organizations, government, tribal and utility sectors. Topics include energy insecurity, serving vulnerable populations, energy efficiency and renewables, water affordability, understanding federal assistance programs, and community outreach and education. Neuac provides additional education opportunities throughout the year through webinars, briefings, and technical assistance for its members and other interested stakeholders. Neuac bridges the gap between states, social service organizations and utilities to empower them to work together and learn from each other in times of energy and poverty crisis. The organization also responds to media requests for information on utility assistance policy and programming.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
