America’s Electric Grid: Growing Cleaner, Cheaper and Stronger

Electricity is illuminating, but its generation, transmission, and distribution have long been opaque. Cleaner, Cheaper, Stronger: Industrial Efficiency in the Changing Utility Landscape reports on how the once stat-ic utility industry is becoming a dynamic and transformative opportunity for the nation’s economic, environmental, and energy future. An array of technological, competitive, and market forces are changing how the U.S. generates power and the ways that Americans interact with the electric grid. A century-old centralized system is yielding to advanced, distributed-energy generation capabilities—in which power is produced at or near the place where it is consumed—that allow the industry to respond to new market opportunities and evolving consumer desires.

7 Ways To Convince Your State To Make The Most Of The Clean Power Plan

Now that the final Clean Power Plan has been released and posted in the Federal Register, it’s time to get to work. By including energy efficiency in their compliance plans, states can reduce emissions and compliance costs while boosting local economies and reducing household utility bills. Many states are already benefiting from energy efficiency policies and programs, while others are just getting started. Regardless of the past, it is now up to people in states to ensure that their state officials plan for a fu-ture where these benefits can be achieved. Here are some ideas for how to get involved.

PA Governor Touts Budget Progress, No Talk of Gas Severance Tax

It appears a resolution to Pennsylvania’s months-long budget impasse is in sight, and so far it doesn’t include a new severance tax on the state’s natural gas industry. Multiple Pennsylvania news outlets reported late Monday and early Tuesday that Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf and Republicans in the Pennsylvania General Assembly had agreed on the framework for a deal that could end a stalemate that has pushed the state four months past its deadline to adopt a budget.

About AEE National

The Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) is a nonprofit professional society of 16,000

members in 89 countries. The mission of AEE is “to promote the scientific and education-

al interests of those engaged in the energy industry and to foster action for Sustainable Devel-

opment.” AEE's network of 82 local chapters meet regularly to discuss regional issues.

AEE's roster of corporate members is a veritable “who's who” from the commercial, in-

dustrial, institutional, governmental, energy services, and utility sectors.

AEE offers a full array of informational outreach programs including seminars, confer-

ences, journals, books, and certification programs.

The AEE Energy, Facility, Power News is a high-quality online newsletter that focuses on the

accomplishment of the Association and its members. AEE also publishes three technical

journals: Energy Engineering, Strategic Planning for Energy & the Environment, and Cogeneration &

Distributed Generation Journal. Distributed Energy focuses on the advantages of diversifying

your energy portfolio with onsite power and distributed generation in order to efficiently

increase the security and stability of your power systems. Sustainable Facility, a new publica-

tion from the publishers of Energy & Power Management magazine replaces the former

publication to AEE members. These publications are complimentary to all AEE members.

Additional benefits include continuing education & book discounts, invitations to industry

surveys, job referrals, and special member discounts.
