Energy Emergency Assurance Coordinators

The Energy Emergency Assurance Coordinators (EEAC) program is a cooperative effort between the National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO), the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC), the National Governors Association (NGA), the National Emergency Management Association (NEMA), and the DOE’s Office of Cybersecurity Energy Security and Energy Restoration (CESER), Infrastructure Security and Energy Restoration (ISER) Division. It serves as a means to share, and exchange, information on planning for, and responding to, energy emergencies. It supports a secure cooperative communications environment for state and local government personnel with access to information on energy supply, demand, pricing, and infrastructure. Designated members have expertise in electricity, petroleum, and natural gas. The current membership of nearly 200 professionals is made up of representatives from State Energy Offices, Public Utility Commissions, state legislators, emergency management agencies, homeland security agencies, local governments, and Governors’ offices.
