Our economy, the environment, and national security face many significant challenges related to the use and production of energy. Ultimately, our country must undergo a clean energy revolution that relies heavily on efficiency and renewable energy to ensure affordable and reliable energy supplies, sustainable growth, and a safer future. This effort will require an unprecedented collaboration among leaders from business, government, academia, nonprofit organizations, and across our society.
