Our work

The NextGen Highways Oregon coalition is a diverse coalition of organizations representing energy, transportation electrification, business, environmental, and wildlife interests who share a common goal in opening existing infrastructure corridors for transmission siting.

Legislative and Other Priorities

• Coordinating with sponsors of a significant transmission legislative package currently under consideration in 2025. Exploring opportunities to promote the concept of co-location.
• Tracking and informing efforts to update Oregon’s Energy Strategy to support the timely development of new transmission.
• Working directly with the Oregon Department of Transportation to support understanding of NextGen Highway objectives and identifying ways we may be able to work together to promote co-location where appropriate.
