Accelerating the energy transition with tools for better, faster policymaking
The Challenge
Policymakers are under increasing pressure to rapidly realize an equitable clean energy transition.
Developing effective policy has never been more complex, and getting it right quickly and efficiently is almost unheard of.
It shouldn’t be. But the traditional approach is too contentious and slow, bogged down in years-long policy fights.
Our Solution
EPDI turns policy fights into design projects with an approach that makes it easier to implement effective energy policy.
We do this with actionable tools, training and consulting that clarify the destination and accelerate the journey – so multi-stakeholder policy processes can be efficient, with better results.
Our Philosophy
The crux of the challenge facing policymakers is achieving new objectives – a clean, resilient, equitable electricity system – without compromising traditional goals of safety, reliability, and affordability.
Our design philosophy is rooted in long-term systems thinking, unbiased intellectual honesty, and trust that traditional adversaries ultimately have the same goals. We bring both extensive policy development experience and an idealism about the integrity of the regulatory process.
Products & Services
We produce expert design tools, roadmap templates, and policy guides that form an unbiased foundation for new policy initiatives.
All products are customized to fit each situation’s unique priorities, challenges, and goals.
We then provide expert facilitation of stakeholder processes based on those products and train regulatory staff in their use.
