About E&E Publishing

Business in brief

Environment & Energy Publishing (E&E) is the leading source for comprehensive, daily coverage of environmental and energy policy and markets.

E&E's four daily on-line publications are considered "must-reads" by people who track and influence energy, environmental and climate policy. (Click here for a description of each of our news services.)

We are a high-tech business with an old-school approach to journalism. E&E's 40-person award-winning editorial team is among the best in the business and enjoys unrivaled access to key players in energy and environmental policy. So every day we develop insightful, balanced, timely stories readers won't find anywhere else.

Our coverage of major, breaking news goes deeper than the mass-market news services and brings readers informed, balanced, spin-free reporting that keeps them atop critical issues and developments.

And while we cover the Washington policy and political scene like nobody else, our coverage is also national and global. E&E reporters travel around the world to do boots-on-the-ground coverage of the issues shaping energy markets and environmental policy. And we operate several regional bureaus, including New York City and San Francisco, to keep readers consistently up-to-speed on key developments in the finance, technology and other sectors. And in January 2009 our full-time European bureau opens in Brussels to guide and enhance our coverage of the EU region as it implements the Kyoto protocol, struggles with energy supply issues and adopts regulations affecting multi-national companies.

Key areas covered by E&E's more that 40 reporters and editors:

• US federal legislation
• US environmental regulation and federal agencies
• International and US climate policy issues
• Global energy resources and markets
• Alternative energy
• Air and water issues
• Hazardous and toxic substances
• Public lands
