Clean Energy Advisory Board

In order to build public support for the Plan from a diversity of stakeholders and to leverage local expertise on clean energy issues, the City has established a Clean Energy Atlanta Advisory Board.

The Board is composed of local and regional experts, who will act as a sounding board for strategies being considered for the Plan, contribute analytical and research support, and help the City analyze and select the initiatives for the Plan.
