Energy Transition Challenges and Opportunities

The global clean energy transition is at a critical juncture, where addressing the most pressing challenges requires a multidisciplinary approach. 

The Irving Institute's Research and Translation program bridges key disciplines— engineering, technology, business, economics, policy, environmental studies, earth sciences, healthcare, and deep cultural comprehension — to drive high-impact solutions to energy transition challenges. 

The Irving Institute seeks to integrate and amplify efforts across Dartmouth, including Arts and Sciences, the Thayer School of Engineering, the Tuck School of Business, the Geisel School of Medicine, and other institutes and centers to accelerate the clean energy transition. By leveraging Dartmouth's expertise in areas such as clean technology, Arctic studies, AI, energy and environmental justice, finance, and more, the Institute aims to stimulate groundbreaking research and expedite the pipeline of solutions from lab to market to advance the global clean energy transition.
