During this call, the discussion will focus on the content of state’s comprehensive energy plans. NASEO’s Melissa Savage, Senior Program Director, will offer a national perspective on general and sector-specific recommendations and trends that are common in energy plans, and review NASEO's on-line database of state plans. Additionally, two NASEO Affiliates, the American Gas Association and The Weidt Group, and the Nebraska Energy Office will discuss share priorities, insights, and approaches that states may wish to consider during the planning process. The call will include ample time for Affiliates to raise important issues that NASEO should consider in researching and developing recommendations and guidelines for state energy planning.
