The way we power the world is changing.

Our energy system is rapidly evolving.

At Pleiades, we bridge the technological, economic, and policy trends that are reshaping the power sector to support an equitable transition to the clean energy future.

Local Leadership

Federal Investment

The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, CHIPs ACT, and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law represent an historic investment in American industry, people and clean energy. Today, local leaders across sectors are stepping up to build projects that deliver for people and planet. 

Pleiades has helped clients and partners navigate this first-in-a-lifetime Federal investment in climate action to deliver real climate and economic benefits.

Rural Development

& Clean Energy


Rural communities have a significant role to play in the clean energy transition — and now have the incredible opportunity to harness Federal investments to drive local jobs, grow economic opportunity, and build shared prosperity.

Pleiades supports rural leaders working to ensure the energy transition delivers real, tangible benefits for their communities, including through supporting the leadership of rural electric cooperatives.

Pleiades founder, Frances Sawyer, was named a 2023 Elemental Excelerator Policy Fellow — supporting her and Pleiades’ work connecting rural electric cooperatives with the opportunities unlocked by new energy technologies and transformative Federal funding.

Innovation and Technology

Technology and innovation are key drivers of the clean energy transition. New technologies are dropping the cost of power, supporting building and transportation electrification, and fostering a more resilient grid.

Pleiades works to support the deployment of new clean energy technologies and investment in place-based industrial policies to grow the clean energy economy.
