- Search: type part or all of the company/organization name, click apply
- Once you have found an Associate of interest, click on its logo to see a description and contact information.

- To read messages sent to you, click on the link in the notification email or, after you log in, click on “Check Message” in the “Associate Tools” menu.

Posting an “Associate Update”
Associate updates let members directly share news about their company and its work promoting energy efficiency. They appear on the Associates homepage and in your company’s profile (linked to the company, not to individuals). Our communications team will also consider posts for inclusion in Alliance newsletters, particularly the daily clipping service News You Can Use. To post an Associate update:
- Be sure to you are logged in
- Click on “Associates” in the top navigation bar
- Click on any Associate company to get the “Associate Tools” menu to appear (right side of page)
- Click on “Create an Update” in the “Associate Tools” menu
- Enter the title and text of your update
- Click “Save” (If you need to go back and edit, just click the “Edit” tab at the top of the saved post)
- Updates will be reviewed by Alliance staff before they appear on the website, so expect a brief delay
Accessing Other Associates-Only Content
We are exploring options to further develop password-protected content for Alliance Associates. Currently, the following materials are accessible from the “Associate Tools” menu after you log in:
- Business opportunities – a “living” spreadsheet of business opportunities compiled from requests-for-proposals
- Committee information – meeting times and membership lists of the three advisory committees to the Board
Submitting an Event
The Alliance website includes a list of energy events hosted by our peers. Anyone can submit an event – whether a forum hosted by your organization or a conference you think we should know about. You do not need to log in to do so.
- Go to http://ase.org
- Click on “Events” in the top navigation bar
- Click on the “Submit an Event” button

- Enter an event title, date and location, at minimum. If you are with the host organization, please include contact information in case Alliance staff have questions; your contact information will not appear online
- Updates will be reviewed by Alliance staff before they appear on the website, in order to limit content to quality events of interest to our members and partners
