All companies hoping to be successful in the ever-changing renewable industry must build strong relationships with a wide variety of internal and external stakeholders. Smart, multi-faceted programs are key for the success of renewable energy communications. Diane Cherry Consulting facilitates stakeholder dialogue in environmental, renewable energy, and energy efficiency topics and communicates that information to multiple audiences across different platforms. Our project work has included creation of websites for clean energy business organizations; a multi-day facilitation with environmental advocates on policy options for coastal resilience; and facilitation and communication of an 18-month working group on North Carolina energy storage policy.
