Mission, Vision, and Governance

The mission of the Arthur L. Irving Institute for Energy and Society at Dartmouth is to accelerate an affordable, reliable, and equitable clean energy transition for the benefit of society.

Our vision is a multidisciplinary community of researchers, experts, and citizens who will lead the decarbonization of the global economy.

See our 2030 Strategic Plan Summary.

Governance

The Arthur L. Irving Institute for Energy and Society is run by a faculty director who reports to Dartmouth's provost. Like other Dartmouth centers and institutes, the Irving Institute's advisory board is approved by the Dartmouth Board of Trustees. The advisors provide advice on the strategy and operations of the Institute in service to its mission and also serve as a connection to the outside world of energy in today's society. The advisory board has broad representation from many areas, including academia, industry, government, and nongovernmental organizations.
