Boldly inclusive conversations for a brighter energy future

Common Spark Consulting works to advance boldly inclusive policymaking as the foundation for a clean energy future for all.

We are facilitators, energy policy experts, and advocates for a just future.

What We Offer

Facilitation

Through facilitation designed to reverse models that prioritize privileged and resourced voices, Common Spark supports conversations that elevate the perspectives of those most impacted by policy. From inclusive planning to thoughtful execution, we curate spaces designed to foster trust, partnership, and collaboration that result in outcomes that serve more of our communities. Learn more.

Energy Policy Expertise

Common Spark’s energy policy experience extends across local, state, and national issues of energy efficiency, clean energy, electric and gas distribution infrastructure, resource planning, electrification and decarbonization, and rates and affordability. We are fluent in regulatory, legislative, and agency advocacy . Learn more.

Energy (in)Equity Trainings

Energy (in)Equity is a professional training that examines how the energy industry perpetuates systemic and racial injustice and what each participant can do to address injustices through individual and collective policy work. The training can serve as a starting point or a reminder to how we as individuals can learn and innovate together for a just, clean, and healthy future for all communities. Learn more.

Just Outcomes

Through our work, we acknowledge our individual responsibility to act within an unjust system. Common Spark recognizes that the energy system itself is unjust, that current processes have not and do not produce policy that support community priorities, and that the impacts of the energy system and policies disproportionately harm and burden low-income and BIPOC communities

Our work is intended to be reparative. We are committed to advancing just outcomes in our work. We seek a more equitable future that recognizes and addresses wrongs of the past. Learn more.
