SEEA:

Mission & Goals

Mission Statement

The Southeast Energy Efficiency Alliance promotes energy efficiency for a cleaner environment, a more prosperous economy, and a higher quality of life in the Southeastern region of the United States.

Goals

• Position energy efficiency as a viable tool for strengthening the regional economy and protecting the environment.
• Promote energy efficiency to increase electric reliability.
• Empower consumers at all income levels through education on the benefits of energy efficiency, including energy savings and quality of life.
• Promote the development of a vibrant energy services industry throughout the Southeast, and growing markets for energy efficient products.

SEEA can be of assistance to the region since the organization can help moderate some of the expected increases in energy consumption from the region’s population growth.  SEEA can also help gain greater acceptance of energy efficiency as a legitimate energy resource, along with continued generation and transmission additions, in meeting energy demand.  In addition, SEEA can help increase market penetration of ENERGY STAR^® products and help ensure that low-income residents are able to take part in energy efficiency initiatives.  SEEA, through its programs, would also improve air quality and stimulate job and economic development in the region.
