The American Energy Alliance (“AEA”) is a not-for-profit organization formed to engage in public policy advocacy and debate, and legislative and executive-branch advocacy, concerning the function, operation and government regulation of global energy markets.

AEA’s position is that freely-functioning energy markets provide the most efficient and effective solutions to today’s global energy and environmental challenges and, as such, are critical to the well-being of individuals and society. AEA believes that government policies should be predictable, simple and technology neutral.
