Q3 2025 Quarterly Report

The last quarter has been a busy one with staff focused on developing NEEA’s annual 2026 Operations Plan. The plan outlines key activities over the next year, highlighting opportunities across existing work to accelerate market impact.

It also identifies some new and innovative ways to break down barriers like affordability, availability, and customer choice across both electric and natural gas, so that every household and business in the region can benefit from efficiency.

NEEA’s recent activities to accelerate efficiency have included foundational work to advance building codes in Idaho and Montana, dual-fuel pilots in Oregon and Washington to better understand how to optimize heating loads, and a regional consumer awareness campaign to promote heat pump water heaters, with a specific focus on rural communities. NEEA also launched the second phase of its Northwest Marketplace pilot, an online platform designed to raise awareness, increase action and track purchases of efficient consumer products across the region. Since its debut in November 2024, over 35,000 Northwest residents have used the site to search over 30 categories of energy-efficient products and appliances.
