About us
The climate, health, and economic benefits of clean energy are clear, but not everyone has the resources to make the upgrades. Clean Energy Works accelerates inclusive investments that open the clean energy economy to all. We envision a world with a 100% resilient clean energy economy that provides opportunities and benefits for everyone. We promote solutions that are inclusive and just. Racial and social equity are at the heart of our mission. We aim to assure all communities who have been excluded or disproportionately burdened by the energy sector are able to access clean energy upgrades. Clean Energy Works is committed to empowering marginalized communities and communities of color to lead the transition to a clean energy economy. We know that change is necessary at the systemic level which is why we champion solutions that can be replicated at scale for transformative impact. We value evidence-based decision making in order to inspire confidence that recommendations will have a high probability of producing targeted outcomes and benefiting everyone.

Our Board member, Dr. Destenie Nock, is the founder of Peoples Energy Analytics, an organization in the running for Emerging Company of the Year as recognized by the Northeast Clean Energy Council (NECEC). Peoples Energy Analytics has developed an algorithm capable of analyzing energy use data from millions of households which provides a unique understanding of the energy challenges of the people living in those homes. In short, their technology allows them to identify specific households at risk of having freezing pipes in the winter or at risk of heat stroke in the summer – BEFORE these issues arise. They will deliver this functionality through a DAaaS platform to electric and gas utilities, as well as to social service programs.
