Action Plan
The Action Plan is crafted to provide a pioneering new energy community with three years of actions that put it on the path to achieve its 20-year objectives. The Action Plan is a tool to keep communities from getting mired in incremental processes. It distills the concepts and community input from the Workshop into a Roadmap for action—mapping the most important steps to take in the next three-six months, the following six-12 months, and subsequent 18-36 months. The Action Plan recommends program structure, policy options, capacity-building, community engagement, and finance strategies based on an understanding of what is needed in every community and tailored to the local context.
The core purpose of the Action Plan is to affirm the community’s ability to achieve this great challenge—long-term transition to a clean energy system that drives economic development, upgrades local infrastructure, attracts large-scale private investment, and attains needed greenhouse gas reductions and environmental performance.
