NASEO Committees and Task Forces

Committees

The National Association of State Energy Official’s (NASEO) committees are the formal mechanism for members to work on NASEO’s top priorities and ongoing issues. The primary role of the committees is to identify emerging issues that are relevant to the state and territory energy offices. The committees collect, analyze, and disseminate information about these emerging issues and work to educate members and others. The committees’ work helps to guide the association’s strategic direction and, where appropriate, builds consensus on issues.

Committees also play an integral role in setting NASEO’s annual Issues Agenda. The organization’s Issues Agenda defines NASEO’s top advocacy priorities and sets the tone for staff and organizational activities for the coming year. Committees work with the Issues Agenda Committee as part of the agenda development process. All NASEO committees have similar responsibilities.

Task Forces

While NASEO's committees identify and analyze emerging issues, task forces are the action arm of the association. Task forces may be formed by the Chair of the Board of Directors to research and develop special issues for a committee or for the board, and to deliver specific short-term services or products funded by grants or contracts. These activities must be consistent with NASEO’s current strategic direction, as determined by the members and published in the National Energy Issues Agenda. Task forces are discontinued when the product or service for which they were created has been delivered. All NASEO task forces have similar responsibilities.
