Empower Our Future

A Boulder-based coalition of organizations and individuals in support of local clean power.

The mission of Empower Our Future is to work towards 100% renewable electricity by 2030 in an electrical system that is more democratic, decentralized, competitive and equitable than is currently provided by Xcel's monopoly in Colorado. We also support other efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our primary focus is on Boulder, but we work at the local, state and national levels and collaborate with and assist other communities as appropriate

Stay tuned. Get on the Empower our future mailing list.
