Project Transition Competitors

At Rocky Mountain Institute, we advance market-based solutions that transform global energy use. We engage businesses, communities, and institutions to cost-effectively shift to efficiency and renewables, creating a clean, prosperous and secure energy future. Our whole-systems expertise unlocks market based solutions that can be replicated and implemented now. As an independent, non-partisan nonprofit, we convene and collaborate with diverse partners - business, government, academic, nonprofit, philanthropic and military- to accelerate and scale solutions. We boldly tackle the toughest long-term problems - challenges often ignored by those held to short term results. We have been a leader in energy efficiency and renewables for more than 30 years. Also, we love clean energy!

C40 is a network of nearly 100 mayors of the world’s leading cities who are working to deliver the urgent action needed right now to confront the climate crisis and create a future where everyone, everywhere, can thrive. Mayors of C40 cities are committed to using a science-based and people-focused approach to limit global heating in line with the Paris Agreement and build healthy, equitable, and resilient communities. Through a Global Green New Deal, mayors are working alongside a broad coalition of representatives from labour, business, the youth climate movement and civil society to go further and faster than ever before. The current co-chairs of C40 are Mayor of London Sadiq Khan and Mayor of Freetown Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr. Three-term Mayor of New York City Michael R. Bloomberg serves as President Emeritus of the Board. C40’s work is made possible by our strategic funders: Bloomberg Philanthropies and Realdania.
