Technical Alliance

The Technical Alliance was an association of engineers, scientists and technicians founded by Howard Scott in New York in late 1919 . The association devised a North American energy plan aimed at reducing waste. The Technical Alliance advocated a technocracy and preferred economical and more efficient production. Both economic growth and economic conservatism of the 1920s counteracted society's request. It was dissolved in 1921.

The energy plan was also not completed. The Technical Alliance was never a mass organization, but included a few prominent and influential members:

A number of members later became involved in the technocratic movement .
