The Future of Energy Security and Sustainability
In 2007, the Council on Competitiveness launched the Energy Security, Innovation & Sustainability (ESIS) Initiative to explore the linkages between the United States’ need for greater energy security, the global imperative for environmental sustainability and U.S. economic competitiveness at the enterprise and national levels. Through extensive dialogues, the ESIS Initiative brought together high-level experts from industry, labor, academe and the policy community to form conclusions and ideas on how to create the enabling conditions that will stimulate and accelerate private sector innovation and investment in sustainable energy solutions.
