2023 Public Power Project Convening | Conference Video
On September 11th and 12th 2023, a virtual convening was held by The Public Power Project Steering Committee following the release of a new report, Coming Together for Equitable Public Power.
Coming Together For Equitable Public Power
A number of communities are taking action to explore what it would take to break from investor-owned utilities who are failing to meet community reliability, sustainability, and affordability expectations and instead form a new public power utilities. Over two years and across multiple states, the Public Power Project collaboration explored the perspective of campaigners, public officials, staff of existing municipal power utilities, and communities already served by public power. Through landscape analysis, interviews, and focus groups this report shares insights gained about how public power, in its incumbent and emergent forms, can be equitable, just, and democratic.
