Let’s decarbonize the economy!
The Shift Project is a French think tank advocating the shift to a post-carbon economy. As a non-profit organisation committed to serving the general interest through scientific objectivity, we are dedicated to informing and influencing the debate on energy transition in Europe.
Inform
- We set up working groups on the most sensitive and decisive issues of the transition to a post-carbon economy;
- We produce robust and quantified statements on key aspects of the transition;
- We bring forward innovative proposals, and we pay particular attention to appropriately-scaled solutions.
Influence
- We launch lobbying campaigns targeting political and economic decision-makers to promote the recommendations made by our working groups;
- We host events designed to encourage discussion among the different stakeholders concerned with climate and energy issues;
- We build partnerships with both professional organisations and academic players.
The Shift Project is supported by economic leaders that consider the energy transition as their strategic priority. Since our foundation in 2010, we have signicantly impacted national and European policy-making with regard to the climate and energy issues.
