Our Mission

Our mission is to educate decision-makers and emerging leaders about the benefits of transitioning to environmentally responsible energy sources, through evidence-based resources, analytical tools, and public forums.

Our Approach

The Energy Transition Institute advances its mission by fostering evidence-based analysis and dialogue, specifically in pursuit of the following objectives:

Elevate new analysis and analytical resources to support ambitious low-carbon energy resource plans and policies;

Activate a community of analysts and thought leaders committed to evidence-based measures to accelerate the energy transition; and

Educate decision-makers and emerging leaders on how the region can advance its clean energy economy while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
