Clean Energy Innovation
About the Research
Innovation in clean energy technologies is responsible for improving the performance and reducing the cost of low-carbon technologies. CPL researchers have analyzed and documented the energy technology innovation systems that have allowed these improvements to occur. Through the development and ongoing updating of its national and global energy innovation datasets, CPL is able to track and analyze trends in energy innovation. Going forward, CPL intends to develop a complementary dataset in adaptation innovation.
