Energy Future Coalition

National Clean Energy Smart Grid

The U.S. needs to make major investments in our electricity grid if we hope to mitigate climate change, revitalize our economy, and strengthen our national security. We have 50 year-old grid technology that is incapable of managing large-scale variable power supplies from important renewable energy sources, like wind and solar farms. The way we plan, site, and pay for grid investments has to be changed.
