The Oregon Department of Energy is a statewide agency created in 1975.
We have four core agency divisions:
Nuclear Safety and Emergency Preparedness
Energy Planning and Innovation
Energy Facility Siting
Energy Development Services
We help homeowners and renters across the state.
ODOE has helped hundreds of thousands of Oregonians heat and cool their homes more efficiently, weatherize their homes, and move to more efficient devices. With our guidance, cutting edge energy efficient options have become commonplace. Since 1978, our residential programs have saved or displaced enough energy in the state to serve about 400,000 households for one year.
We help local, regional, and state public agencies and schools.
We’ve helped state of Oregon agencies reduce energy use and meet efficiency goals ahead of schedule. Programs designed specifically for K-12 schools have helped more than 100 districts implement energy efficiency projects, resulting in more comfortable classrooms and better learning environments for students and educators.
We help businesses, farmers, nonprofits, and tribes.
Our technical expertise and financial programs help support energy conservation, al
...ternative fuel vehicles, and renewable energy development for businesses, ranchers, farmers, nonprofits, and others who want to save energy and generate clean power.
We’re ready to serve Oregon in the future.
Across the state, we’re advancing energy innovation and accessibility – from energy storage to facility siting and oversight. We prioritize diversifying Oregon’s energy mix, successfully integrating new energy sources into the grid, and overseeing nuclear energy safety. We also support statewide efforts to meet Oregon’s future energy needs and responsibilities, including pressing issues like climate change.
