Our Mission
GridEquity advances energy and environmental equity by ensuring individuals, nonprofits, and communities have the knowledge and resources to make their own informed decisions and turn their priorities into practical solutions. Because policies and markets in one part of the world shape communities in another, our work crosses borders too. We provide nonpartisan, evidence based research, policy analysis, and support for securing funding, guided by the people most affected by energy and environmental decisions.
Our Vision
We envision a future where all communities, wherever they are, have the knowledge, resources, and meaningful voice they need in the energy and environmental decisions that affect their lives.
In this future, community knowledge carries weight alongside rigorous research, and policies are built on sound evidence. People can independently evaluate proposed solutions, understand their benefits and risks, and help determine the path forward.
Former industrial sites and other places harmed in the past become home to non-combustion energy systems. Energy is affordable, pollution is reduced, communities already facing high costs and health risks are protected from new harm, and the benefits reach the people who need them most.
