Clean Energy Mandate
On May 7th, 2019, Governor Jay Inslee signed into law the Clean Energy Transformation ACT (CETA), which commits Washington State to achieve an electricity supply that is 100% greenhouse gas emissions free by 2045. Grant PUD is required by this law to create a Clean Energy Implementation Plan (CEIP) every four years.
What is the CEIP
Every four years, Grant PUD is mandated to create a roadmap for how we will provide our customers with an electric supply from renewable and non- greenhouse gas emitting resources by 2045. In 2021, we developed our first roadmap – Read the 2022-2025 CEIP Report here.
This plan proposed the steps Grant PUD needs to take to be greenhouse gas neutral by 2030 and have 100% clean energy by 2045. The steps in the plan included energy efficiency, demand response, and renewable energy goals and the actions we need to take to ensure all Grant PUD customers benefit from the transition to clean electricity.
Grant PUD’s next four-year roadmap is due January 1, 2026. This roadmap will describe how Grant PUD will make sure the transition to clean electricity is equitable across the County and does not unintentionally harm highly impacted communities or vulnerable populations.
What are highly impacted communities and vulnerable populations?
A highly impacted community is a community residing in a geographic area identified by the Washington State Department of Health’s Environmental Health Disparities map as having inequalities being highly impacted by fossil fuel pollution and climate change in Washington. These inequalities include an assessment of the threat of fossil fuel pollution, and a vulnerability based upon socioeconomic factors and sensitive populations that results in an elevated risk of environmental health disparities.
Vulnerable populations are communities that experience uneven and increasing risks from job, food, and health care insecurities, high housing and transportation costs relative to income, language and cultural barriers, and health factors such as low birth weight and higher rates of hospitalization.

Public Process
To make sure the switch to clean electricity doesn’t unintentionally harm and promote equal opportunities for highly impacted communities and vulnerable populations, we want to hear from you.
Your thoughts and ideas are valuable and can help guide the development of our four-year roadmap. Below are Grant PUD’s outlined steps to our public process.

Community Survey
The community survey seeks your opinion on a variety of topics such as challenges your community faces today, important values when planning for clean electricity in our community, and how we can help you (and others) participate in clean energy programs.
Your answers are anonymous and only used to help us develop our 2026 four-year roadmap. The survey should take about five minutes to complete. Your input is valuable to us, and Grant PUD wants your opinion to help us shape our energy future. Click on the survey link below to start the survey.
Community Workshops & Engagement Opportunities
In addition to our community survey, we will be scheduling opportunities for the public, service providers, and community organizations to participate in workshops and/or focus groups. These events will be structured to allow participants to share their expertise and knowledge.

To encourage customer engagement in developing its CEIP, Grant PUD conducted a virtual workshop to discuss and take public comment on its CEIP. Attendees were invited to participate virtually during the 1 p.m. session.
