The Wilton E. Scott Institute for Energy Innovation at Carnegie Mellon University addresses the world’s most pressing energy challenges by enabling collaborative research, strategic partnerships, policy outreach, entrepreneurship, and education. We support impactful work that strives to optimize resources and reduce environmental consequences associated with energy production and use. We understand that energy and social equity issues are deeply interconnected, and society can benefit with improved energy access. We seek to encourage the development of breakthrough technologies that will accelerate the transition to a sustainable, low-carbon energy future.
