The National Commission on Energy Policy was formed by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, in "partnership with four other national foundations. ... Composed of some of the nation’s most respected leaders on energy, the Commission is a bipartisan group of leading energy experts who have come together to develop a long-term U.S. energy strategy that promotes national security, economic prosperity, and environmental safety and health. The Commission will issue several interim studies and release its final recommendations in early 2005." [1]
