Americans for Energy Leadership works to build support for federal energy innovation policy and foster the next generation of energy policy leaders. We believe that strategic public-private investment in advanced energy technology can help secure U.S. economic competitiveness and national security in the 21st century, and that Americans must take bold and immediate action to secure our position in this industry. We are advancing this mission by:
- Mobilizing Americans behind a new national agenda to drive advanced energy technology innovation, commercialization, and industry cluster development;
- Educating the nation’s leaders and general public about the benefits of strong advanced energy innovation and competitiveness policy;
- Empowering pragmatic policy entrepreneurs with a platform to develop and advance their proposals at the national scale;
