Nonprofit policy advocacy accelerating clean energy, carbon-neutral economies, and renewable energy in Minnesota and the Midwest.
Fresh Energy is a Saint Paul, Minnesota-based nonprofit policy advocacy organization that works to accelerate the transition to clean energy and carbon-neutral economies across the Midwest. Operating as a 501(c)(3) entity, the group utilizes data-driven research and market-based strategies to advance renewable electricity, energy efficiency, and building decarbonization initiatives. Funded primarily through grants and donations, the organization scaled its operations to a workforce of more than 30 staff members by 2022. The group provides crucial policy leadership for initiatives supported by Governor Tim Walz and recently spun out the Midwest Building Decarbonization Coalition under Marnese Jackson.
