Protect Our Power (POP) is a small Washington, DC–based nonprofit organized as a 501(c)(4) that focuses on public policy related to electricity resilience. Its stated objective is to build consensus among key stakeholders, decision-makers, and public policy influencers to launch a coordinated and adequately funded effort to strengthen the nation’s electric grid against external threats. The group also advocates for an enhanced power restoration and recovery component for grid operations, including communications protocols intended to facilitate rapid recovery. POP’s primary audience consists of policymakers and other public policy influencers who can translate consensus into resilience measures for the grid. Positioned as a policy-focused organization rather than a service provider, it operates with a small staff in Washington, DC.
