At NEEP, collaboration is more than a principle — it’s our foundation. Our work has never been a single voice — it’s the chorus. The “us” is every partner, every community, and every leader ready to drive our region toward an affordable, clean, and resilient energy system. For more than three decades, that collective force has brought together practitioners, policymakers, utilities, businesses, and community voices to advance energy efficiency and strengthen our regional economy.
Today, rising energy costs, accelerating load growth, and intensifying climate pressures have put our region at a true inflection point. The fundamentals of energy efficiency matter more than ever. Summit 2026 is where collaboration turns to action — a place for us to share insights, align strategies and power progress towards meeting the next era of energy challenges.
Through interactive sessions, panel conversations, and opportunities to build lasting partnerships, attendees will explore tangible, actionable solutions that strengthen affordability, accelerate efficiency, and support a modern, equitable, and resilient energy system. Together, we will examine what it takes to scale what works, unlock solutions, and build the relationships needed to keep our region moving forward.
