This policy playbook looks from port to plug to identify strategic spots in the full energy system to intervene for transformational change.The goal: end the era of fossil fuels and supplant it with a future of energy democracy and justice.

The playbook first looks at the ports as a strategic pinch-point in the Texas fossil fuel system. We focus on how to stop the increasing number of exports outside the United States and how port communities could reorganize the port ecology that focuses on renewables and restoration. We move to the electricity grid to contend with one of the most marketized grids in the United States. Second, we provide a framework for organizing around the right to energy and safe homes, as well as offer strategies to make energy a public good—controlled by the community, not by the elite or capital.
