Intro - NASEO Programs

“Programs In a Box” and “Policies In a Box” are real-life examples of how State Energy Offices can put federal funding to work and develop policies to address energy-related challenges and opportunities. Developed by NASEO, they help states access funds by offering replicable key aspects of successful state programs and policies.

How It Works: Simplify the process

States can better access federal funds by using examples of states’ successful past achievements. Drawing upon collective experience serves to enable increased impact. These examples are not prescriptive.

Each “Program In a Box” provides a guide for states considering a similar program.

Each “Policy In a Box” details the process for states developing a policy on a specific topical area.
