About the Statewide Ener­gy Effi­cien­cy Col­lab­o­ra­tive (SEEC)

ICLEI-Local Gov­ern­ments for Sus­tain­abil­i­ty USA is a proud part­ner in the Statewide Ener­gy Effi­cien­cy Col­lab­o­ra­tive (SEEC). SEEC is a new alliance to help cities and coun­ties reduce green­house gas emis­sions and save ener­gy. It is a col­lab­o­ra­tion between three statewide non-prof­it orga­ni­za­tions and California’s four Investor Owned Utilities.

SEEC Mem­bers are:

• ICLEI–Local Gov­ern­ments for Sus­tain­abil­i­ty USA
• The Insti­tute for Local Government
• The Local Gov­ern­ment Commission
• Pacif­ic Gas and Elec­tric Company
• San Diego Gas and Elec­tric Company
• South­ern Cal­i­for­nia Edi­son Company
• South­ern Cal­i­for­nia Gas Company

SEEC pro­vides edu­ca­tion and tools for cli­mate action plan­ning, venues for peer-to-peer net­work­ing, tech­ni­cal assis­tance and recog­ni­tion for local agen­cies that reduce green­house gas emis­sions and ener­gy use.  The col­lab­o­ra­tive effort is designed to build upon the unique resources, exper­tise and local agency rela­tion­ships of each non-prof­it orga­ni­za­tion, as well as those of the four investor owned utilities.

The pro­gram is fund­ed by Cal­i­for­nia util­i­ty ratepay­ers and admin­is­tered by Pacif­ic Gas and Elec­tric Com­pa­ny, San Diego Gas and Elec­tric Com­pa­ny, South­ern Cal­i­for­nia Edi­son, and South­ern Cal­i­for­nia Gas Com­pa­ny under the aus­pices of the Cal­i­for­nia Pub­lic Util­i­ties Commission.
