The Energy Systems and Climate Analysis (ESCA) group conducts research that enables public- and private-sector decision-making on decarbonization, climate resilience, policy, investment strategies, planning methods, emerging technologies, environmental management, goal setting, and risk management. The intersection of policy, technology, economics, and climate impacts is an evolving landscape with many challenges. ESCA produces fundamental insights that inform long term strategy to face these challenges.
The group conducting this research consists of engineers, economists, policy analysts, meteorologists, and modelers who regularly contribute to thought leadership across academic journals, national assessments, and expert forums. For a history of ESCA's decarbonization research, refer to the group's interactive decarbonization site.
