PowerOptions Connect
Powering Communities Together
PowerOptions Connect (PO Connect) empowers communities to fully participate in the clean energy transition. Our programs are designed to help New England nonprofits and public entities, regardless of size or budget, participate affordably in the clean energy transition.
Building upon the over 25 years of expertise of our sister organization, PowerOptions, we are committed to reducing the cost, carbon and complexity of energy so the organizations we serve can focus on advancing their own missions.
Our Goal: Equity in the Energy Transition
At PowerOptions Connect, we believe that a cleaner future must be an inclusive one. Our core goal is to ensure that under-resourced and vulnerable communities are included in the energy transition. To achieve this, we provide the strategic framework and funding necessary to actualize ambitious sustainability goals through three pillars:
Community-Led Strategies
We deploy programs that are built around local priorities and designed in collaboration with the municipalities and community partners they serve.
Accelerated Funding
By using using a combination of grants and philanthropic funding, we help organizations overcome capital hurdles.
Implementation Support
We work hand in hand with our partners to deliver successful energy transitions that create lasting results for the communities they serve.

Decarbonization and Energy Resilience Support
Clean energy goals shouldn't stall at the starting line.
Nonprofits and public entities throughout New England are ready to decarbonize, reduce costs and build resilience. The barrier isn't ambition, it's access. We put expert planning, funding navigation, and implementation support within reach of every community, regardless of size or budget.
