The Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan policy organization that works to advance strong policy and action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote clean energy, and address the risks of climate change. It conducts research, convenes business and policy leaders, and develops pragmatic solutions aimed at achieving a low-carbon, climate-resilient economy.
C2ES typically supports federal and state policies that address climate change, including carbon pricing mechanisms, clean energy standards, energy efficiency programs, transportation decarbonization, industrial emissions reductions, and climate resilience and adaptation strategies.
C2ES is primarily funded through foundation grants, corporate partnerships, and philanthropic contributions.
C2ES works closely with major corporations through its Business Environmental Leadership Council and collaborates with policymakers, industry leaders, and environmental organizations.
