We are Idaho Energy Freedom and we’ll be in the Second Floor Rotunda of the Idaho State Capitol building from 11 a.m. - 1:30 p.m, January 23, 2024. Come and see us if you can. Just like last year’s inaugural event, this year, we will take a few hours to educate the public and lawmakers the facts about clean energy, from the experts, so Idahoans can make choices about their energy production and consumption based on truthful information.

We are passionate about countering misinformation about clean energy such as wind power, solar power, hydro power, and nuclear power, and how they can generate more revenue for Idaho communities and protect the environment by lowering our greenhouse gas emissions, which are the biggest contributor to climate change and global warming.

Last year, we saw a lot of excitement from elected officials, partner organizations, and curious passersby for our clean energy presentations. This year, we anticipate it to be even bigger and more exciting. If you are interested in hosting a table at the event, please let me know!
