Get Involved

We are delighted you made it to this page as the Local Clean Energy needs the help of individuals and organizations that want to advance clean renewable energy in the Bay Area. We hope that you will share your enthusiasm and expertise with us. Here is how you can get involved:

Join the Alliance

The Bay Area is incredibly well-positioned for a transition to a local clean energy economy, perhaps more so than any other region in this country. The Local Clean Energy Alliance (LCEA) welcomes organizational and inidividual members. Organizational members include nonprofits like Bay Localize, the Ecology Center, KyotoUSA, Pacific Environment, and the Sierra Club, and businesses like Sun Light & Power, SunEnergy, Nomad Café, and Crunchy Foods. We encourage both interested individuals and organizations to review our membership categories and join the alliance. 

Intern Positions

We have a limited number of intern positions open from time to time. These are a great opportunity to gain experience on energy policy advocacy while providing us needed assistance. Internships provide a very small stipend. Check here for any current openings.

Volunteer Positions

We always have a need for volunteers who would be interested in community outreach, research, organizing, membership development, and event staffing. Check out the following volunteer opportunities:

• Promotional Outreach Volunteer
• Researcher/Analyst Volunteer
• Membership Development Volunteer

Steering Committee Nominations

We are looking for new leadership at the LCEA: people who are committed to our goals and passionate about a clean energy future, and about the clean power, healthy communities perspective of the LCEA. To make a nomination for Steering Committee, click here.
