Description
This September in Pittsburgh, the U.S. will host the first ever Global Clean Energy Action Forum. A joint convening of the 13th Clean Energy Ministerial and 7th Mission Innovation Ministerial — along with partners in the private sector, academia, innovators, civil society, youth and communities everywhere. The three-day event will feature a high-level plenary, topical roundtables with energy and science ministers from 31 countries, CEOs and experts, side events, technology demonstrations, and other activities.
The Global Clean Energy Action Forum comes at a pivotal time. We are on the cusp of the most important transition human society has ever seen, and we need to look back at 2022 as the year the world took giant steps to build a new energy economy that benefits all, improve energy security, tackle climate change, and reap the rewards of a clean energy market that will exceed $23 trillion by the end of this decade.
The theme for CEM13/MI-7 is Rapid Innovation and Deployment. This means accelerating the pace and scale of innovation through collaboration and shared strategies for the deployment of clean energy technologies. By shortening the innovation to deployment continuum, participants in the Global Clean Energy Action Forum will help deploy commercially viable technologies in time to combat the climate crisis in this urgent decade of delivery.
Subthemes include: Jobs and Community, Technology Transformation and Unprecedented Deployment
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is partnering with Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) to host the 2022 GCEAF in Pittsburgh, PA. CMU will bring together a local host committee to ensure voices and perspectives from across our community – including industry, government, labor, non-profit organizations, and philanthropy – are part of the planning process.
