Our Campaigns
From humble beginnings a decade ago, AGREE has grown to be a major force in New York’s energy landscape, advocating for an equitable transition to a renewable-energy-based economy where everyone can thrive in harmony with Earth’s ecosystems. We work from the hands-on house by house level to utility rate cases and statewide policy.
Renewable Heat Now
Through our Renewable Heat Now Campaign, we work with organizations across NY to raise awareness about converting from fossil fuel heating to geothermal heat pumps, thermal energy networks, and cold climate heat pumps.
Utility Rate Cases
Utilities collect billions annually for the electricity grid, pipelines, and energy efficiency programs. Through our rate case trainings we advocate for affordable bills, improved energy efficiency, and alternatives to gas investments.
EnergySmart CNY
Our Energy Advisors are here to help you save energy, make homes more comfortable, and reduce fossil fuel use. We connect you with Federal, State, and local programs so you can be part of the climate solution.
