In today's society, energy, policy, and economics are inextricably intertwined. Understanding the tradeoffs between energy use, it's affect on economic prosperity, and how governments regulate the balance is a key factor in determining which technology innovations will succeed and become integrated into the national energy portfolio. Through SEI Programs such as Creating Energy Options (CEO), Georgia Tech researchers are involved in interdisciplinary efforts to analyze and model innovative ways to meet energy demands without negative economic or environmental consequences.
