heat, hot water, bio-fuels and electricity can create numerous opportunities for our residents, from economic benefits to energy independence, from job
creation to sustain growth of our communities, small renewable generation is a fundamental tool we must utilize to move Nebraska forward into
the future. Energize Nebraska believes in the potential of these resources and we are here to make sure those opportunities become a reality.

Small Renewable Generation Survey

Dear Friend of Energize Nebraska,

We’ve got an important decision to make together.

The future of renewable energy in Nebraska depends on you. It is of great concern when our elected officials and community leaders do not give much attention to the role of small renewable systems inside the entire clean energy picture. Lately, large wind turbines and wind farms is all we hear in the news, However, very little is said about developing small wind turbines, solar and biofuels solutions for consumers to generate their own power.

Also, small scale renewable energy means several hundred of new jobs in our state.

In planning for the coming year, we’d like to hear from you by filling out our short survey, the results will help us identify your renewable energy needs and work closely to meet those goals. The survey is the result of a joined effort between the University of Nebraska-Kearney Center for Rural Research and Development and Energize Nebraska.

This statewide effort will provide us with a better idea about creating training opportunities and establish a market for small scale renewable energy based on your needs. Can you spare us a couple of minutes to complete the survey?
