Community Energy Association facilitates peer networks that address a spectrum of high-priority climate action topics and foster regional collaboration and alignment.
The broad mandate of each Peer Network is to support community-based climate action through peer learning and knowledge sharing for local government staff and elected officials.
In simple terms, peer networks exist to get the best information about a topic into the hands of elected officials who provide high-level direction and staff who are responsible for implementing in their community. By coming together with their peers, network members can find ways to advance their priorities by replicating what has already been done, adapt solutions for their context and collaborate for amplified impact.
The peer network ecosystem convenes local government staff around specific topics and has networks to bring people together within distinct regions. There are also networks specifically for elected officials.
