Who We Are

Milepost collaborates with organizations who share our deepest values — to do right by people and our planet by building an equitable, resilient, and lasting energy future.

To advance the future of energy, we pull from one resource more than any other: people. After all, people are the key to any real change. Which is why we partner closely with Public Power utilities and government agencies on every level, building strategies, designing programs, and forging alliances that get people excited, aligned, and invested in powering progress.

As a certified B Corp and a Social Purpose Corporation, we put our hearts into our work, partnering with clients to anticipate and solve today’s most pressing energy challenges and drive meaningful and measurable change for them and society.

We're a diverse mix of technical consultants, businesses strategists, people experts, researchers, marketers, and creatives. When working with us, you get a strategy consultancy, creative agency, and energy expert all in one.

Our expertise means that our clients have an experienced partner by their side. No need to catch us up; we understand the current energy challenges, the political landscape, and the right way to appeal to customers. In fact, many of us have served in key energy roles before joining the Milepost team.

Our approach is just that, approachable. We guide clients through an efficient and effective workflow, weaving a bit of fun into every step. In fact, that’s how we got our name. If you’ve ever travelled the Alaska Highway, you’re probably familiar with the Milepost Guidebook. Spanning 1,390 mileposts, it is the source for taking the most efficient route, finding the best views, and locating the nearest stop.

We consider ourselves an equally indispensable guide. Which is why clients across the U.S. turn to us daily to steer them toward maximum impact. If building an equitable, resilient, and lasting energy future is on your itinerary, we’ll help you get there.
