This grant renews support for the National Bureau of Economic Research's Environmental and Energy Policy and the Economy (EEPE) initiative, an effort that connects researchers with policymakers on energy system decarbonization. The EEPE’s annual conference has become a cornerstone event for energy economists. This grant supports research paper generation and conference operations through 2028, when EEPE will reach its 10th anniversary. The program solicits policy-relevant research papers that might otherwise not be pursued, selecting six papers annually for presentation at the Washington, DC conference and then in subsequent publication by the University of Chicago Press. The conference attracts approximately 100 attendees, evenly split between policymakers from federal and state agencies and from academics. Early-career researchers value the opportunity to pursue policy-relevant questions, while government staff appreciate this rare, structured engagement with researchers. In this next cycle of funding, resources are provided to support graduate student researchers in attending this meeting. The grant will fund 24 original papers, four conferences, four published volumes, conference organization, and support for graduate student participation.
