Rocky Mountain Institute

Rocky Mountain Institute helps the people of emerging economies to leapfrog straight to the clean energy revolution; changing the way people and goods move to save money and the environment; creating a clean, resilient, and affordable electricity system that produces less pollution and climate-altering CO2; and driving massive market growth for healthy and efficient homes, offices, schools, and gathering places.

In China, Rocky Mountain partners with the government to help the nation profitably surpass its existing national energy and emissions targets, dramatically reduce its dependence on fossil fuels, and set a clear pathway for the developing world to follow. Rocky Mountain is working with China to peak carbon emissions earlier and lower, especially in a network of pioneering cities.

Goals

Aim to help China peak carbon emissions by 2030 and, with government and other partners, support China as it reduces its carbon intensity 60% by 2030.
