Letting America Lead on Innovation
Meeting long-term climate and energy goals will require the rapid deployment of new technologies across every sector of the economy. Yet many promising solutions face commercialization challenges, policy uncertainty, market barriers, and financing constraints. C2ES Action fights for practical solutions that can accelerate technology deployment, strengthen U.S. competitiveness, and support global decarbonization.
As part of our work around innovation, C2ES developed the Innovation Policy Matrix, a user-friendly, technology-neutral tool designed to help policymakers craft effective innovation policy, informed by insights generated from over two years of work with 140 companies across the innovation ecosystem through the C2ES Technology Working Group program.
The tool creates a standardized snapshot of where any given technology sits along the innovation process, the barriers hindering the broader ecosystem, and the key risks to prioritize when developing policy solutions.
