The Access and Equity Advisory Committee (AEAC) was created to bring together a collective of Black, Indigenous, and experts of color together to create innovative best practices and policy solutions that enable equitable participation and benefit from clean energy. Each year, the AEAC members rotate & meet together to explore and provide equity-centered recommendations to address the most pressing barriers to clean energy access for frontline, low-wealth, and BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, persons of color) communities.
The AEAC will come together in June 2024 for a two-day in-person workshop to learn and discuss electric infrastructure inequity fueled by the discriminatory practice of redlining and recommend policy solutions rooted in equity.
