The Stakes for Energy Costs in Budget Reconciliation
We estimate how much energy costs could rise for households and industry if Congress chooses to roll back and repeal key pollution regulations and energy tax credits.
Research
Rhodium Group’s Energy & Climate practice uses a multidisciplinary, data-driven approach to produce unique, independent insights into global energy dynamics, greenhouse gas emissions, and climate change.
We help public and private decision-makers understand what kind of climate future we are on track for, and what matters most for reducing greenhouse gas emissions—at the local, state, national, and international levels. By combining policy expertise with a suite of detailed energy-economic models, our research provides data-driven insights into the impacts of energy and climate change policy and real-world developments on greenhouse gas emissions, energy markets, economic output, and clean technology pathways.

Does the World Free Ride on US Pledges to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions? Evidence from the Paris Climate Agreement
This paper provides what we believe is the first empirical evidence of the US Climate Reciprocity Ratio (CRR).
Note
Clean Investment at the Community Level
Using the Clean Investment Monitor, we assess how much investment is flowing to disadvantaged, low-income, and energy communities in the US.
Note
Sustainable Aviation Fuel Workforce Development: Opportunities by Occupation
We assess the workforce development and occupation opportunities from building up the sustainable aviation fuels industry.
Note
Going Beyond Carbon: Closing the Non-CO2 Ambition Gap
Efforts to mitigate emissions have largely focused on CO2. We assess the gap around non-CO2 emissions, in particular methane.
Note
Direct Air Capture Workforce Development: Opportunities by Occupation
Direct air capture has the potential to play a pivotal role in meeting long-term US decarbonization targets. To achieve scale, the emerging industry will require a large, well-trained workforce.
Note
Clean Hydrogen Workforce Development: Opportunities by Occupation
The US is positioning itself to be a leader in clean hydrogen production thanks to a wave of policy support. We assess potential job opportunities from building up the clean hydrogen industry.
Note
Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions: 1990-2021 and Preliminary 2022 Estimates
Our preliminary estimates for global greenhouse gas emissions in 2022 show a 1.1% increase from 2021, rebounding back above pre-pandemic emissions levels.
