Policy Impacts
EER's latest REPEAT modeling shows how the OBBB derails the energy transition by raising emissions, increasing household energy bills, and slowing clean energy investment.
Policy Impacts
Princeton and EER's most recent REPEAT Project report analyzes a potential repeal of current federal energy and climate policies, presenting a bleak outlook of significant increases to greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs.
Markets & Economy
Vehicle-to-Grid integration (VGI) can be key for cost reduction and flexibility as California moves toward a decarbonized grid. This study quantifies the financial and operational benefits of VGI at various deployment scales.

Markets & Economy
Colorado's ambitious goals for vehicle electrification could get a major boost. Find out how flexible EV charging can lead to significant cost savings and a more resilient, decarbonized energy system.
Policy Impacts
EER’s work modeling the impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), as a part of the REPEAT project, together with analyses from 8 other models, has been published in the paper “Emissions and energy impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act” in the journal Science. The paper is an inter-model
Policy Impacts
Evolved Energy Research (EER), in collaboration with the ZERO Lab at Princeton University, modeled the impact of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) recently passed by the US Senate. EER’s work, as part of the Rapid Energy Policy Evaluation and Analysis Toolkit (REPEAT), has provided timely, independent assessments
Markets & Economy
Marginal abatement cost (MAC) curves have become the de facto starting point for comparing GHG emission reduction measures since being popularized more than a decade ago. While these analyses remain widely recognized, traditional MAC methodologies are ill-suited for providing key insights for achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. A new MAC
Decarbonization
EER, in collaboration with Tempus Analítica (TA), has published a study on a whole-economy Deep Decarbonization Pathway for Mexico. The paper, available here, finds that while the existing climate policy in Mexico is not compatible with Paris Agreement goals, Mexico can achieve these goals on a Deep Decarbonization Pathway. The
Policy Impacts
EER releases a new national analysis on federal policy for a low-carbon, high-renewables electricity system that can enable economy-wide net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050. This work explores the least-cost electricity system consistent with an economy-wide pathway to carbon neutrality and which federal policies can most effectively enable that system. Insights
