The authors organized the workshop “Accelerating Climate-Mitigating Technology Development and Deployment”, bringing together experts in energy innovation, investment, modeling, and policy.

Together, they developed a research agenda for bridging granular private investment data and energy systems models to inform climate and innovation policy (https://drum.lib.umd.edu/handle/1903/21828). The authors are based at the University of Maryland (UMD) Center for Global Sustainability (CGS) and the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison), with expertise in energy and climate policy, innovation and technological change, and macro energy systems and integrated assessment modeling.
