Renewable Energy Task Force

NASEO’s Renewable Energy Task Force facilitates coordination among the state energy offices, members of the Association of State Energy Research and Technology Transfer Institutions, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the national laboratories to expand economic development opportunities for the private sector in renewable energy commercialization and deployment.  The committee provides a forum to catalyze and accelerate renewable energy market transformation policies and programs.
