How We Can Help

Accessible, credible data is imperative for lawmakers, elected officials, and society to make sound decisions about complex energy policy.

AOER believes every resident in every state has the right to know how much energy policy passed at local, state, and federal levels will cost them in terms of standard of living, including monetary and reliability.

We offer a suite of services to make complicated energy policy digestible to everyone—from lawmakers to voters who don’t have the time to study lengthy integrated resource plans or Federal Energy Regulatory Commission orders and the impact they will have on their communities.
