Our Mission
LEAN Energy US (Local Energy Aggregation Network) is a national 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded in 2011 and dedicated to the accelerated expansion and competitive success of Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) programs nationwide. Bringing clarity and direction to a complex arena, we provide support, information resources and market expertise on CCAs to a national network of local, state, and federal governments, commercial and non-profit organizations, advocacy groups and individuals.

As the nation's premier hub for information, resources, networking, data, and education on CCA activities nationwide, LEAN represents nearly 20 million residential, commercial, and industrial electricity customer accounts served by Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) programs in California, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Rhode Island.

What We Do​

We advance Community Choice Aggregation nationwide by:

  • Serving as the national hub for CCA data, research, education, and networking

  • Supporting state and local governments in launching, expanding, and strengthening CCA programs

  • Engaging federal and state policymakers to elevate CCAs as drivers of the clean energy transition

  • Maintaining a robust national network of CCAs, advocates, industry partners, and policymakers

  • Tracking and analyzing CCA markets through comprehensive data and research publications
