About Our Organization
Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) is a non-profit organization founded in 2013 to engage Republican policymakers and the public about responsible, conservative solutions to address our nation’s energy, economic and environmental security while increasing America’s competitive edge.

CRES policy goals include:
Reducing global emissions and growing the U.S. economy. Enacting policy that builds off historically successful approaches to affordable clean energy. Affordably reducing domestic emissions in a manner that can be leveraged globally.To further its mission, CRES established CRES Forum in 2017 to educate the public and influence the national conversation around clean energy solutions that are actionable, market-friendly and responsible.
