THE MISSION
Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) is a nonprofit institution that examines the effectiveness of energy and climate policies around the globe. Our mission is to help nations achieve low-carbon development by evaluating their efforts to promote the new energy economy. As a leading independent center for comparative policy analysis, CPI measures and explains the gaps between: (1) nations' ambitions for low-carbon growth and their actual performance; (2) nations' potential for low carbon growth and their policy ambitions.
Established through a long-term grant from George Soros, CPI also works closely with the finance and business communities to understand how emerging climate policies create and affect markets that allocate investment capital. The initiative maintains offices in key countries to ensure its insights are rooted in the domestic landscape and readily accessible to national policymakers.
CPI is objective and nonpartisan. Its analysis is free from political pressure applied by governments, financial institutions, and other influential actors. At the same time, CPI meets the needs of decision makers by providing customized research that is tailored to the concerns of individual nations.
