Affordable & Sustainable Energy
The future of sustainable energy is integral to society’s ability to combat the climate crisis. Development and implementation of energy infrastructure and systems that make renewable and efficient energy widely accessible are imperative. Johns Hopkins researchers are exploring the technology, policy, and infrastructure that would allow widespread adoption of just and sustainable energy alternatives.-
