Missouri State Energy Planning (MoSEP) Process Stakeholder Groups

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources will hold stakeholder meetings as part of the Division of Energy’s Missouri State Energy Planning (MoSEP) process. The MoSEP process will identify and address topics critical to Missouri's current and future energy needs through an ongoing series of stakeholder engagement workshops. The first Summary and Action Report for the MoSEP process summarizes activity that occurred in association with the Oct. 29, 2020 kickoff meeting of the MoSEP process, as well as our plan for additional engagement.

Cycle 1 Initiative Development

The department held two rounds of virtual meetings for each of the six regions of the state. Based on stakeholder feedback at these meetings, the department identified stakeholder-suggested initiatives for Cycle 1 of the MoSEP process based on criteria presented during the regional meetings. These criteria include the relation of initiatives to the six statewide core values for the MoSEP process, having an initiative “champion” to partner with the department, and being regionally relevant, consensus-based (to the greatest extent possible), actionable, time-bound, and measurable. Formal workgroups will address some of these initiatives in order to create Summary and Action Reports for Cycle 1, while exploratory workgroups will further develop other initiatives in preparation for their consideration during Cycle 2.
