Arizona Energy Policy Initiative

Objective

It is important to have research-based understandings of the societal and economic impacts of innovative science and technologies, especially in relationship to under-served populations. Energy policy research being done at the University of Arizona works to support the development of unbiased policy recommendations for energy issues and outreach. This research is part of a cross-university effort addressing some of the most critical issues of our time involving the production and use of energy, and how these activities impact the environment, society, and human well-being. This research supports policy research and publication development, student activities and involvement in research fellowships, and develops opportunities for increased interdisciplinary activities related to the energy-water-food nexus.
