The Energy Democracy Scorecard was developed through a collaborative process to help activists, policy wonks, and community leaders rate how well they are doing in achieving energy democracy in their own communities.

This flipbook was written from the perspective of frontline communities to help leaders evaluate four themes of energy democracy within their own communities: social justice, regenerative energy, moral economy, and governance assistance.

How did the alliance behind the Portland Clean Energy Fund (PCEF) move a visionary idea from concept to groundbreaking reality? In this webinar, the Climate Advocacy Lab was joined in conversation with members of the PCEF Steering Committee for an “under the hood” look at the campaign’s insights, challenges, and lessons learned –– also captured in a new, interview-based report that captures the “anatomy” of the campaign. This campaign secured a landslide ballot measure victory in Portland in November 2018, establishing a multi-million dollar municipal fund that will address climate, economic, and racial justice by providing funding for renewable energy projects, job training and apprenticeship programs, and regenerative agriculture.
