Our GOAL

Decarbonize the global energy system

We push the change in technologies and policies needed to get to a zero-emissions, high-energy planet at an affordable cost. We imagine a world where the energy needs of all people are met efficiently without damaging the atmosphere.

Our Approach & Global Reach

We are a more than 25-year-old organization with a startup mentality

As problem solvers and creative environmentalists, we achieve change in three main ways:

  • Modeling & Systems Analysis: Driving support for the most effective policy and technology strategies.
  • Technology Innovation: Facilitating the commercialization of emerging and proven next-generation technologies.
  • Policy Advocacy: Working practically and objectively to catalyze realistic change that leads to major impact through legal and legislative advocacy.

We expanded our global footprint

Our team of experts is working all over the world to engage with local partners and stakeholders to develop new ideas, design solutions, and advance innovative technologies and policy solutions. Explore our regional work:
