Electricity usage is soaring across the U.S. To affordably meet demand without increasing pollution, state policymakers must take a leadership role in modernizing the electric grid. With Ceres’ support, leading companies across the country and the economy are urging state governors, lawmakers, and regulators to enact policies that modernize and upgrade the transmission infrastructure that businesses and residents depend on.
Recently, 16 major companies joined together, calling on policymakers across the country to prioritize upgrades and expansion of transmission lines. The business case is clear. By upgrading and modernizing transmission, companies will have access to affordable, reliable, and efficient energy to operate their businesses.
Now we’re working with leading businesses to advocate for state policy changes that invest in the power grid and build a more resilient economy.
