 The American Public Power Association (APPA) is the service organization for the nation's more than 2,000 community-owned electric utilities that serve more than 40 million Americans. It was created in 1940 as a non-profit, non-partisan organization. Its purpose is to advance the public policy interests of its members and their consumers, and provide member services to ensure adequate, reliable electricity at a reasonable price with the proper protection of the environment.
More than 550 APPA members are members of DEED, the Demonstration of Energy-Efficient Developments Program, which offers grants for energy-efficiency projects. DEED members stay abreast of R&D issues through a quarterly newsletter, the DEED Digest, and have access to important research and reports from DEED funded projects. DEED offers awards for energy efficiency achievements. For more information, contact Michele Ghosh at 202/467-2960
APPA's Energy Services Committee focuses on utility efforts to match energy use, consumer needs, and utility costs in the most efficient manner. Members deal with the full spectrum of energy services, including energy efficiency and load management programs, marketing, integrated resources planning, and product and service issues.
