Clean Energy Group (CEG) is a non-profit organization dedicated to greater use of cleaner energy technologies, such as fuel cells and solar, in newly restructured energy markets.

CEG was organized in January 1998. CEG promotes policies and programs that support replacement of the existing electricity generation system with new, less polluting clean energy technologies in the U.S. and abroad through creative financing, business partnerships, public policy and advocacy.

Lewis Milford, president and founder of CEG, was formerly a vice-president of Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) and headed its energy project during the restructuring negotiations in New England.

CEG works with nonprofit officials from around the U.S. that are responsible for over $3.5 billion in new clean energy funds. CEG now manages the Clean Energy States Alliance (CESA) (www.cleanenergystates.org), a new nonprofit organization assisting these funds in multi-state strategies. It also manages the International Initiative on Climate Technology Policy (IICTP), a new consortium of public officials, NGOs, academics, business and financial leaders in the U.S. and Europe interested in trans-Atlantic efforts to build clean energy markets and developing low carbon technoloiges.
