CRES provides education, policy advocacy, and community engagement that accelerate the adoption of all forms of renewable energy, energy efficiency, high-performance building, energy storage, and emerging technologies that will help Colorado achieve a clean energy future.

Background Statement

CRES was established in 1996 in the Denver area as a statewide organization to advance renewable energy development. Today, CRES maintains five chapters in Boulder County, Jefferson County, Northern Colorado, Metro Denver, and Southeastern Colorado, as well as an active Policy Committee.

CRES draws its strength from its member volunteers, who contribute thousands of hours each year in support of our programs and events. Our membership spans a broad range of knowledge and experience and includes recognized experts in research and development; residential, commercial, and utility-scale applications; finance and economic analysis; public policy and legal issues; community development and sustainability; rural, agricultural operations; and environmental and climate change issues.
