What Matters to Us
Every Minnesotan should be able to afford their basic needs. For too many low-income residents, the cost of energy burdens their household budgets and keeps them locked in poverty. We work every day to fight for safe, affordable and reliable utility service for all Minnesotans.
Our Focus Issues
Affordability
All Minnesotans have a right to utility service they can afford. ECC advocates for investments in energy assistance to help lower the percent of their income that low- and fixed-income Minnesotans spend on utilities.
Weatherization
The best way to lower an energy bill is to lower energy consumption. ECC advocates for investment in energy efficiency upgrades for low-income residential utility customers to help them save money and lower their environmental footprint.
Just Transition
As Minnesota transitions to a 100% carbon free future, ECC advocates to ensure that transition is just by promoting investment in low-income communities through renewable energy and workforce development.
