About Us

The Nebraska Energy Forum is a growing community of concerned citizens committed to two goals – achieving energy security for our country and holding our elected officials more accountable in shaping energy policies.

We have come together to better educate ourselves about energy issues and to support a balanced approach to increasing American supplies of energy.

We support expanded conservation efforts, development of renewable energy sources and increased domestic exploration of traditional, non-renewable energy sources.

If you believe strongly that we must address the growing challenge of energy security through a non-partisan comprehensive, balanced approach, then the Nebraska Energy Forum is your community.

Nebraska Energy Quick Facts:

Nebraska is one of the nation's top producers of corn-based ethanol. 

Coal-fired plants generate most of the state's electricity, with nuclear and hydroelectric power generating the remainder. 

Nebraska has small crude oil reserves, and is investing in more renewable energy, such as solar, wind and biofuel.

Nebraska's total energy consumption is the 13th lowest in the nation, although natural gas is used in 2/3 of the households for heating.  

If you believe strongly that our elected officials must address the growing challenge of energy security, set aside partisanship and get the job done, then the Nebraska Energy Forum is your community.
