Mission

The UC Davis Policy Institute for Energy, Environment, and the Economy (Policy Institute) exists to cultivate sustainable communities by making sound research and meaningful policy inseparable.

About the Initiative

Researchers at ITS-Davis and the Policy Institute provide expertise and assistance to design and implement effective LCFS/CFS policies at Federal and State levels. This includes rapid-response technical support, developing the computational model of first LCFS credit markets, evaluating air quality impacts of fuel policies, and helping develop policies to achieve sustainable and equitable outcomes. This has resulted in many ongoing exchanges with policymakers in LCFS and “LCFS-nascent” jurisdictions.
