Sane Energy Project

Our mission is to replace fracked gas infrastructure with 100% democratically controlled, renewable energy in New York State. We build every campaign through a lens of racial, social, and economic justice.

We believe that the transition to a renewable and democratic energy system requires a powerful grassroots movement of skilled, informed, and diverse people. Our style of organizing builds a knowledgeable and engaged base and creates strong bonds within and across communities battling fossil fuel projects across New York State. 

Sane Energy has built genuine, joyful relationships with grassroots groups across the state. Our strategy of organizing hyper-local grassroots campaigns to stop fossil fuel projects and to work in coalition with neighborhood groups has stopped the construction of three pipelines, one LNG port, and three fracked gas power plants in New York. In other cases, when we haven’t permanently stopped a project, we’ve delayed construction, which burdens fossil fuel companies and utilities with added costs.
