Climate Tech Map - Opportunities in Electricity
Description
The Climate Tech Map is a free platform that identifies technical “Innovation Imperatives” and “Moonshots” that will accelerate decarbonization.
- Innovation Imperatives are the critical needs that can help accelerate the path to net zero in the near term.
- Moonshots are high-risk, high-reward innovations that may take longer to realize but could radically reshape our path to net zero.
Developed by an interdisciplinary coalition — including Breakthrough Energy, McKinsey, and Stanford University’s Doerr School of Sustainability — it focuses attention on technologies that move the needle at scale. Other contributors include Elemental Impact, John Doerr’s climate initiative Speed & Scale, and the policy think tank Energy Innovation.
