About Us
We are the premier hub and policy institution for global energy thought leadership. Energy impacts every element of our lives, and our trusted fact-based research informs the decisions that affect all of us.
The U.S. energy sector is rapidly changing. Renewable electricity costs continue to fall and technologies, from heat pumps to electric vehicles, are rapidly improving. These advances can help the U.S. move forward towards decarbonization. What does this mean for the legacy assets that face obsolescence? How should policymakers think about the stranded asset problem, whether from the electricity sector or oil and gas? How will we manage these assets in a way that is equitable, green, and cost-effective?
