Our Mission
The Energy Transition Institute’s mission is to foster a fast and fair transition to a decarbonized energy system in the United States. We execute this mission by supporting interdisciplinary stakeholder-engaged research, innovative education, and effective public engagement at the intersection of energy technology and equity.
To achieve a flourishing future, the world must rapidly decarbonize our economy and ensure equitable energy access - this is the work we do.
Your support
Federal funding for climate change, renewable energy, and equity research is plummeting. We cannot solve the climate crisis without a strong research base that informs effective and just public policy. Your donations will support our work on research, education, and engagement at the crossroads of technology and equity. If you value a stable climate, clean energy, and an equitable future please consider supporting the Energy Transition Institute.
Thank you!
Your support helps the Energy Transition Institute continue our work and will support our 2025 - 2030 strategic vision. We can’t do this work alone. We sincerely thank you for whatever support you can provide!
