About
Catalyst by GTI EnergyAt GTI Energy, we are dedicated to creating solutions that shape the energy systems needed for deep decarbonization and economic vitality by midcentury. We are catalyzing conversations on energy systems transitions and exploring ways to stimulate long-lasting innovation.
Note from the editor
As a technology development organization, GTI Energy occupies a unique space between tradition and innovation in energy systems. Our role is mapping the space between orderly and disruptive, with an increasing focus on making positive impacts on people, communities, the environment, and economies. We keep three things front of mind as we deliver impact: systems thinking, innovation, and collaboration. Catalyst is intended to be a space for stimulating conversations on how we can draw on insights from the graceful complexity of today’s energy systems to drive innovation and collaboration in the design of tomorrow’s systems.
