The SANDAG Regional Energy Working Group (EWG) was established in 2003 to provide input and feedback on issues related to the Regional Energy Strategy and tasks of the Regional Energy Planning Program. The EWG reports to the Regional Planning Committee, which reports to the SANDAG Board.

The EWG comprises a mix of elected officials, business organizations, environmental groups, regional schools/universities, transit and transportation expertise and regional energy expertise from the Energy Policy Initiative Center at USD Law School, San Diego Gas and Electric and the California Center for Sustainable Energy. The EWG generally meets on the fourth Thursday of each month.
