States play a pivotal role in the energy transition. Decarbonizing America by mid-century hinges on whether states choose to block, or to build upon,

the recent explosion of federal climate policy.

 

Due to the lack of data-driven think tanks working at the state level, however, the policymakers and advocates architecting this transition are largely flying blind.

An independent, non-profit, non-partisan think tank, Switchbox exists to fill this vacuum. With expertise in data science, economics, and energy modeling, our team brings evidence-based insight to state climate policy.
