Clean energy innovation provides an opportunity for state-level policymakers and other stakeholders to expand economic opportunities and increase the impact of federal activity on climate and energy while also creating local economic development opportunities, according to a new report. Regional Clean Energy Innovation, produced by the University of Maryland in partnership with Energy Futures Initiative (EFI), identifies a multi-step process for state-level policymakers to strategically advance clean energy innovation, based on a 50-state assessment and case studies of Colorado and Maryland.
