“A copy of the 2013 form 990 was provided in final draft form to the board upon receipt from our independent accounting firm. The board will be provided an opportunity to review the 990 and discuss it at a regular or special board meeting. Ene will then file the 990 after board comment and review.”
“Ene has a conflict of interest policy in our personnel handbook that bars employees, including key employees, from activities that could either be real or perceived conflicts of interest. We take that policy very seriously and monitor it by requiring staff to provide information on any potential conflict to the management team. Ene has not required annual written declarations of potential conflicts; we have felt that given the small size of the board that such a procedure is not necessary to discover or disclose potential conflicts. The board may revisit this procedure in the future.”
“The president's salary level was reviewed by the board in closed session. Information comparing the salary level to other non-profits of comparable size and skill were researched by ene management and provided in summary form. For other employees, ene's procedure is for the president to establish individual compensation levels. Ene reviews compensation levels of employees of comparable non-profits and government positions through information available in 990 filings, guidestar, conversations with other organizations and salary surveys when available.”
“Ene provides access to organization materials upon request. Audits, financial statements and governing documents are routinely provided to foundations and other donors upon request. Ene form 990's are posted on guidestar and charity navigator websites or links.”
“Consulting: program service expenses 306,388. Management and general expenses 6,585. Fundraising expenses 4,694. Total expenses 317,667. Other: program service expenses 1,603. Management and general expenses 138. Fundraising expenses 138. Total expenses 1,879.”
“The process has not changed.”
“The organization follows the provisions of accounting for uncertainty in income taxes as provided for in the income taxes topic of the fasb accounting standards codification. This statement clarifies the criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in an entity's financial statements. It also prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely-than-not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. There were no liabilities (or reduction in amounts refundable) for unrecognized tax benefits at december 31, 2013 and 2012 and no interest or penalties were accrued. The organization is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the internal revenue service and state taxing authorities for the years ended december 31, 2010 through 2013.”

| IRS990/Desc | 0 | CLEAN ENERGY INITIATIVE - ENE ADVOCATES AND DESIGNS MARKET-BASED STRATEGIES AND OTHER POLICIES THAT FOSTER CLEANER ENERGY SUPPLIES ACROSS ALL SECTORS.ENERGY PRODUCTION HAS BEEN ONE OF THE LEADING CONTRIBUTORS TO CLIMATE CHANGE. MEANWHILE, THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL RENEWABLE ENERGY IN THE REGION IS ENORMOUS - BOTH FOR LARGER GENERATING STATIONS LIKE WIND FARMS TO SMALL, DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS LIKE ROOFTOP SOLAR. THE COSTS OF RENEWABLE ENERGY ARE DROPPING RAPIDLY, MAKING RENEWABLES MORE AFFORDABLE AND VIABLE FOR THE CONSUMER MARKET.ENE ADVANCES POLICIES THAT LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD SO RENEWABLE POWER CAN FAIRLY COMPETE AND FLOURISH. POLICIES LIKE RENEWABLE PORTFOLIO STANDARDS (RPS) CREATE INCENTIVES THAT GIVE CLEAN ENERGY OPTIONS A BOOST SO THEY CAN COMPETE WITH THE TRADITIONAL FOSSIL SUPPLIES THAT HAVE TRADITIONALLY HELD THE MARKET ADVANTAGE.ENE ALSO ADVOCATES MARKET-BASED SOLUTIONS THAT ACCOUNT FOR THE REAL COST OF POLLUTING FUELS AND CHARGE A FEE FOR THE RIGHT TO DISPOSE OF CARBON POLLUTION IN THE ATMOSPHERE, SUCH AS THE REGIONAL GREENHOUSE GAS INITIATIVE (RGGI). RGGI'S EFFECTIVE MODEL HAS HELPED NORTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC STATES REDUCE POWER PLANT EMISSIONS SIGNIFICANTLY WHILE GENERATING ECONOMIC AND HEALTH BENEFITS IN THE REGION, AND THIS EFFECTIVE MODEL CAN AND SHOULD BE EXPORTED TO OTHER STATES. IN OTHER SECTORS OF THE ECONOMY PLACING A DIRECT PRICE ON POLLUTION THROUGH A CARBON TAX CAN REDUCE EMISSIONS BY PROMOTING CHANGES IN BEHAVIOR AND LEVELING THE PLAYING FIELD FOR CLEANER ENERGY SUPPLIES.AT EVERY LEVEL OF PLANNING, FROM TRANSNATIONAL TO HOUSEHOLD LEVELS, CONSUMERS NEED TO BE SMARTER ABOUT ENERGY CHOICES. LEADERS NEED TO COMMIT TO USING THE CLEANEST AFFORDABLE OPTIONS, ESPECIALLY BEFORE COMMITTING MAJOR PUBLIC FUNDS TO NEW INFRASTRUCTURE THAT COULD LOCK US IN TO THE OLD, POLLUTING SYSTEM FOR DECADES. THAT MEANS CONSIDERING ALL OF OUR ENERGY OPTIONS RATHER THAN DEFAULTING TO LARGE, SUPPLY-SIDE INFRASTRUCTURE. IT ALSO MEANS FULLY ACCOUNTING FOR LIFECYCLE EMISSIONS, SUCH AS FUGITIVE EMISSIONS FROM NATURAL GAS, AND ASSESSING HOW EFFICIENCY CAN REDUCE DEMAND. IN HOMES AND BUSINESSES, INCREASING ACCESS TO ADVANCED RENEWABLE THERMAL TECHNOLOGIES THROUGH ENERGY EFFICIENCY RETROFITS AND BUILDING CODES WILL MAKE IT EASIER FOR CONSUMERS TO ADOPT CLEAN FUELS AND SAVE ON THEIR ENERGY BILLS. ADVANCED COLD-CLIMATE HEAT PUMPS, SOLAR THERMAL, AND LOW-EMISSION, SUSTAINABLY SOURCED BIOMASS CAN REDUCE GHG EMISSIONS AND DECREASE OUR RELIANCE ON IMPORTED FOSSIL FUELS.CUTTING EMISSIONS FROM VEHICLES, TRAVEL AND FREIGHT IS CLOSELY RELATED TO CLEAN ENERGY SUPPLY STRATEGIES. SEE OUR TRANSPORTATION INITIATIVE FOR MORE. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc | 0 | CLIMATE AND ENERGY ANALYSIS CENTER (CLEAN) - EVIDENCE FOR SMART SOLUTIONSENE CLEAN BRIDGES THE GAP BETWEEN CHALLENGES AND ACTION. THE CLEAN CENTER BRINGS TOP-QUALITY ANALYSIS TO ANSWER PRESSING QUESTIONS, SUPPORT GOOD IDEAS, FIGHT MISINFORMATION, AND FIND FIRM, COMMON GROUND FOR DIVERSE STAKEHOLDERS.ENE CLEAN MAINTAINS ONE OF THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE COLLECTIONS OF ENERGY AND EMISSIONS INFORMATION IN THE REGION. IT DRAWS ON MULTIPLE SOURCES WHICH ARE CROSS-REFERENCED AND UPDATED REGULARLY TO ENSURE ANALYSES ARE IN-DEPTH, ACCURATE AND TIMELY. WHAT WE PROVIDE-DATA ON ECONOMIC IMPACTS AND BENEFITS, EMISSION TRENDS, COMPARATIVE COSTS-IS A POWERFUL TOOL TO ADVANCE CLIMATE AND ENERGY INITIATIVES.THE CLEAN CENTER PRESENTS DATA IN ACCESSIBLE, TARGETED MATERIALS. ENE'S STAFF ENGAGES WITH A WIDE RANGE OF AUDIENCES AND ISSUES, SO THEY KNOW WHAT INFORMATION IS NEEDED, AND THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAYS TO PRESENT IT. THE CLEAN CENTER MAINTAINS UP-TO-DATE DATA SETS ON ENERGY USAGE, FUEL PRICES, WEATHER TRENDS, AND MANY OTHER CRITICAL VARIABLES. OUTPUTS INCLUDE: VISUALIZATIONS, GRAPHS, REPORTS, TRACKERS FOR EMISSIONS AND CONSUMPTION TRENDS, ANALYSES, MAPS AND MORE. STAFF ARE CONSTANTLY IMPROVING AND RE-SHAPING THE ANALYSES AND WORK PRODUCTS TO MEET THE LATEST NEEDS. ENE'S CLEAN CENTER FIELDS REQUESTS FROM OTHER ADVOCATES AND COMMUNITY GROUPS, MEDIA, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT, BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY REPS, AND MORE. OUR MATERIALS HAVE A STRONG REPUTATION FOR BEING FAIR, CREDIBLE AND EFFECTIVE.ENE CLEAN CENTER MATERIALS ANSWER QUESTIONS LIKE: HOW CAN WE GET TO 80% EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS BY 2050? WHAT ARE THE COMPARATIVE EMISSIONS AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF IMPORTING TAR SANDS DERIVED OIL VERSUS CLEANER ALTERNATIVES? HOW MUCH MONEY AND FUEL IS SAVED BY DRIVING ELECTRIC VEHICLES? WHAT DOES BUSINESS AS USUAL MEAN FOR THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND, WITH THE CURRENT ENERGY MIX? |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc | 0 | TRANSPORTATION - MOVING FROM OIL TO A LOW-CARBON FUTURETHE TRANSPORTATION SECTOR IS THE SECOND LARGEST SOURCE OF U.S. GHG EMISSIONS, RESPONSIBLE FOR 28% OF EMISSIONS NATIONALLY, AND NEARLY 40% IN NORTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC STATES. TRANSPORTATION FUELS, NOTABLY GASOLINE AND DIESEL, MUST BE PRICED IN A WAY THAT REFLECTS THE COST OF THESE EMISSIONS, EITHER THROUGH A CARBON TAX OR THE REGIONAL GREENHOUSE GAS INITIATIVE (RGGI), WHICH CURRENTLY REGULATES POWER PLANT EMISSIONS.POLICIES NEED TO ACCOUNT FOR THE FULL LIFECYCLE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS OF FUELS. GASOLINE REFINED FROM TAR SANDS, FOR EXAMPLE, HAS VERY HIGH EXTRACTION EMISSIONS. A POLICY LIKE THE LOW CARBON FUEL STANDARD PROGRAM IN CALIFORNIA COULD ADDRESS THESE UPSTREAM EMISSIONS. THIS TYPE OF POLICY SETS TARGETS FOR LOWERING THE LIFECYCLE CARBON INTENSITY OF FUELS AND ALLOW THE MARKET TO DETERMINE THE MOST COST-EFFECTIVE FUELS AND STRATEGIES FOR ACHIEVING THOSE TARGETS.ELECTRIFICATIONELECTRIFICATION OF THE VEHICLE FLEET IS ONE OF THE KEY PATHWAYS TO CLEANING UP THE TRANSPORTATION SECTOR. SWITCHING FROM A TRADITIONAL CAR BURNING GASOLINE TO A FULLY ELECTRIC VEHICLE CAN REDUCE GHG EMISSIONS BY 60% IN THE NORTHEAST. AS CLEANER SOURCES POWER THE ELECTRIC GRID, THESE BENEFITS WILL INCREASE. IN ADDITION, VEHICLES RUNNING ON ELECTRICITY DON'T EMIT ANY OF THE LOCAL POLLUTANTS THAT COME FROM GAS ENGINES.EVS SAVE MONEY, TOO. SWITCHING FROM GASOLINE TO ELECTRICITY CAN CUT PER-MILE COSTS BY ABOUT ONE-HALF AND ALLOW CONSUMERS TO SPEND MORE OF THEIR HARD-EARNED DOLLARS IN LOCAL ECONOMIES. TIME-OF-USE RATES WILL ALLOW EV OWNERS TO SAVE EVEN MORE MONEY BY CHARGING AT NIGHT WHEN THE COST OF GENERATING ELECTRICITY IS LOW.TO SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY OF EVS, THE TOP PRIORITIES ARE TO EXPLORE AND ADDRESS POTENTIAL IMPACTS ON THE POWER GRID, AND MAXIMIZE THE ABILITY OF EVS TO SERVE AS A GRID RESOURCE. ENE IS ALSO ADVANCING SOLUTIONS TO HELP 1) REDUCE THE UPFRONT COST OF EVS; 2) BUILD OUT CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE; AND 3) EDUCATE CONSUMERS ON THE BENEFITS OF EVS. IT IS POSSIBLE TO DRAMATICALLY INCREASE THE ADOPTION OF EVS OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 0 | ENE CLIMATE AND ENERGY ANALYSIS CENTER (ENE-CLEAN): ENE'S CLIMATE AND ENERGY ANALYSIS (ENE-CLEAN) CENTER HAS ONE OF THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE DATABASES ON ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND EMISSION TRENDS. ENE DEPLOYS THIS INFORMATION TO PROVIDE CREDIBLE INFORMATION ON WAYS TO REDUCE EMISSIONS AND ADOPT POLICIES THAT WILL SPUR A CLEANER ECONOMIC FUTURE. ENE'S CLIMATE WORK EXTENDS TO FORESTS AND LAND USE, ESPECIALLY IN TERMS OF GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) EMISSIONS OR ABSORPTION. ENE DEVELOPS REPORTS AND OTHER MATERIALS FOR PUBLIC INFORMATION. THIS YEAR, ENE IS COMPLETING A MACROECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF THE BENEFITS OF INVESTING IN ENERGY EFFICIENCY FOR CANADA. ENE IS WORKING WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND TO PROVIDE ENERGY AND EMISSIONS INFORMATION FOR THE RHODE ISLAND STATE ENERGY WEBSITE. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 1 | ENERGY EFFICIENCY INITIATIVE - ENERGY EFFICIENCY IS THE LOWEST COST, CLEANEST AND MOST CONSUMER-FRIENDLY ENERGY CHOICE AVAILABLE.ENERGY EFFICIENCY IS A CORE PART OF AN EFFECTIVE CLIMATE STRATEGY. ENE PROMOTES POLICY MODELS THAT YIELD NATION-LEADING INVESTMENTS, INSTITUTIONALIZE EFFICIENCY AS A TOP RESOURCE AND ENSURE THAT EFFICIENCY INVESTMENTS THRIVE AND EXPAND OVER TIME.ENERGY EFFICIENCY IS A CORNERSTONE OF STATE AND REGIONAL ENERGY SUPPLY AND POLICY. INVESTMENTS IN EFFICIENT EQUIPMENT LIKE LIGHTING, APPLIANCES AND INDUSTRIAL MOTORS REDUCE CONSUMER ENERGY BILLS AND ALSO REDUCE THE NEED FOR EXPENSIVE ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE LIKE TRANSMISSION LINES AND POWER PLANTS. ENE WORKS TO ENSURE THAT PROGRAMS ARE EFFECTIVE, WELL-FUNDED AND REACH AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE WITH DEEPEST POSSIBLE ENERGY AND COST SAVINGS FOR EACH PARTICIPANT.EFFICIENCY INVESTMENTS IN LEADING STATES HAVE FOR EXAMPLE DEFERRED THE NEEDS FOR NEARLY HALF A BILLION DOLLARS IN NEW ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS; PRODUCED $19.5 BILLION IN ECONOMIC BENEFITS, CUT FUEL USE BY 124,000 GWH AND AVOIDED 51.3 MILLION METRIC TONS OF CO2 POLLUTION. ENE'S MACROECONOMIC STUDIES SHOW THAT EFFICIENCY INVESTMENTS CREATE JOBS, KEEP ENERGY DOLLARS AT HOME, AND HELP TO GROW LOCAL ECONOMIES.THE CHALLENGE IS TO BUILD FROM THIS STRONG FOUNDATION TO REACH FOR EVEN GREATER SAVINGS, MAXIMIZING EFFICIENCY INVESTMENTS THAT ARE AVAILABLE AND COST EFFECTIVE. ENE HELPED CREATE THE POLICIES AND STAKEHOLDER BOARDS THAT HAVE LED STATES TO TOP-IN-THE-NATION INVESTMENTS IN ENERGY EFFICIENCY. ENE WORKS WITH BUSINESS, UTILITY, REGULATORS AND OTHERS TO MAKE SURE THAT PROGRAMS MEET THEIR GOALS AND REACH ALL CUSTOMERS. |
| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 2 | ENERGY GRID REFORM INITIATIVE - BUILDING A MODERN, CONSUMER-ORIENTED ENERGY GRIDENE IS WORKING TO REFORM THE PLANNING AND INVESTMENT POLICIES FOR THE POWER GRID TO HELP MODERNIZE THE ENERGY SYSTEM.THE TRADITIONAL UTILITY AND POWER GRID MODEL OF A ONE-WAY POWER FLOW FROM CENTRAL GENERATING STATIONS TO CONSUMERS IS RAPIDLY GIVING WAY TO AN EXCITING, CONSUMER-FRIENDLY ENERGY FUTURE. THE SYSTEM CAN BE MORE COST-EFFECTIVE, CLEANER, OFFER GREATER CONSUMER CONTROL OVER ENERGY COSTS AND HELP CLEAR THE PATHWAY TO VERY LOW CARBON EMISSIONS.IN ENE'S VISION OF A MODERN GRID, HOMES AND BUSINESSES BECOME THE CENTERPIECE OF THE ENERGY SYSTEM. CONSUMERS WILL HAVE GREATER CONTROL OVER ENERGY USE THROUGH TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS ROOFTOP SOLAR WATER HEATING AND PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEMS, ADVANCED METERS THAT HELP CONSUMERS CONTROL AND MONITOR POWER USAGE, AND TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS SMART APPLIANCES AND HEAT PUMPS. COMMUNITY ENERGY SYSTEMS- LOCAL WINDPOWER, SOLAR ARRAYS, AND COMBINED HEAT AND POWER- WILL ALSO PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE MODERN POWER GRID.TECHNOLOGY ADVANCEMENT IN THE ENERGY ARENA IS SPEEDING SO FAST THAT THE MARKET IS AHEAD OF THE REGULATORY STRUCTURE GOVERNING UTILITIES. TODAY'S GRID PLANNING AND INVESTMENT POLICIES WERE DEVELOPED IN AN EARLIER ERA, WHEN LARGE FOSSIL-FUELED POWER PLANTS WERE CONSTRUCTED TO ENERGIZE POPULATION CENTERS. LONGSTANDING POLICIES SKEW DECISIONS IN FAVOR OF LEGACY POWER GRID INVESTMENTS OVER NEWER, OFTEN LESS EXPENSIVE AND MORE ADVANCED SOLUTIONS. THE RULES NEED TO CHANGE SO THAT VIABLE, OFTEN LOWER-COST, ALTERNATIVES TO LARGE-SCALE TRANSMISSION PROJECTS ARE FULLY CONSIDERED. NEW REGULATIONS SHOULD ALSO REFLECT THE APPROPRIATE ROLE OF THE UTILITY IN AN INCREASINGLY DECENTRALIZED SYSTEM. ENE IS WORKING TO UPDATE POLICY MODELS SO THEY ALIGN UTILITIES' FINANCIAL INCENTIVES WITH THE PUBLIC'S CLEAN ENERGY, CARBON REDUCTION, AND ECONOMIC GOALS. |
