The REE Initiative was established in 2024 to develop strategies that support the economies of fossil fuel–dependent communities across America as the energy system transforms in the 21st century. In addition to supporting action-oriented research to find what works, REE will build a community of scholars, policymakers, and economic development practitioners from the local, state, tribal, and federal levels to share knowledge and build relationships across the nation’s energy communities.
