Energy at Georgia Tech

The Strategic Energy Institute (SEI) represents Georgia Tech's commitment to serve as a national resource for energy information dissemination and to play a leadership role in the transition to a more sustainable energy economy.

“The research strategy for Georgia Tech, in support of our overall Institute's strategic vision and plan, is to concurrently create transformative opportunities based on faculty-thought leadership, to strengthen collaborative partnerships with industry and government, and to enhance economic development in concert with addressing important societal issues. Over seventy-five faculty members, spanning fundamental research, translational research, transition and economic development support, and related educational programs, are implementing this strategy through their leading-edge work with one significant result—increasing technological and policy leadership at the state, national, and international levels.”
