Beneficial Electrification Resources

The Beneficial Electrification League's programs aim to accelerate the switch to electric end-uses where doing so advances one of the following objectives without counteracting the others: 1) reducing greenhouse gas emissions, 2) lowering costs for consumers, 3) improving quality of life, and/or 4) strengthening the grid.

We are grateful to the Environmental and Energy Studies Institute for creating the Beneficial Electrification Toolkit, a compendium of analysis and program models. This is a living document, so check back often!

Some of the original research on Beneficial Electrification authored by BEL President Keith Dennis are available here:
