How Start-Up Accelerators Can Drive Climate Action

Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI)

A live webcast will be streamed at 12:00 PM EDT at www.eesi.org/livecast The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) invites you to a briefing on how startup accelerators can transform innovative ideas into deployable, scalable climate change solutions. Ramping up green hydrogen, direct air capture, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and offshore wind energy can help mitigate climate change, as explored during EESI’s briefing series, Scaling Up Innovation to Drive Down Emissions. But how do we quickly and efficiently scale up these and other innovative climate solutions? During this briefing, panelists will discuss how accelerators help commercialize early-stage technologies that have the potential to transform the fight against climate change, and steps Congress can take to bolster U.S. private sector momentum to deploy cutting-edge climate solutions in the United States.
