Community Engagement

RenUSA identifies community leaders and key stakeholders in project localities and helps clients build the relationships needed to get their energy projects approved. Our team cultivates partnerships and connections to foster trust and positive brand recognition on behalf of our clients.

RenUSA’s community engagement professionals have been deployed to build community support for new and ambitious public-private partnerships, multimillion-dollar infrastructure projects, economic development initiatives, as well as utility-scale renewable energy projects nationwide. Nobody knows ground operations better than RenUSA.

Local Government Relations

Our staffers have worked in statehouses, the US Capitol Building and for leaders in Congress and local governments throughout America. We have represented presidential candidates and worked with elected officials at the local, state and federal levels of government. Our team has experience advising and working with elected officials at every level of government; we know how government works… and doesn’t work.

If you need anything from government intel to federal, state or local approvals for your project, we have your back. RenUSA will make it happen.

Frontline Field Training

Getting yelled at? How do you handle it? How about media inquiries? Do you know when to defer or how to anticipate reporter questions and respond most effectively? When your personnel are in the field, they don’t always have an expert communications person at their side. Let RenUSA provide your field teams and personnel with this critical training.

RenUSA professionals have been providing energy industry clients with expert frontline communications training for decades. Now, RenUSA offers field training, media and crisis communications training and much more.

Risk Assessment and Due Diligence

Does your project initiative stand on solid ground or thin ice? RenUSA does opposition, political and other necessary research to assess risk and build strategies. We do the critical and often overlooked advance work.

Using a practiced, effective and experienced approach, our services include needed analyses of project area demographics, local business, government, political influences and locality revenue sources. We also identify project risks and opportunities by determining the potential for possible partnerships, alliances and coalitions.

Strategic Communications

Our team of communication professionals, including our talented writers, videographers and content specialists, will position your company’s renewable energy initiatives and projects for success.

We create and utilize YouTube videos, Instagram content, Facebook ads and other digital assets to target project-related marketing by zip codes — to reach specific regional stakeholders and elected officials. RenUSA communications experts have managed social media campaigns since the advent of the medium. We also specialize in conventional media (television / print) as well as in media relations and earned media initiatives.
