RMI Annual Report: Accelerating a New Energy Era

“Our 30th year at Rocky Mountain Institute was the most exciting yet. It’s the year we moved from researching and publishing Reinventing Fire’s ‘grand synthesis’ of America’s energy solutions to scaling up their implementation.”
                            –Amory B. Lovins, RMI cofounder and chief scientist

Many leaders, observing today’s fossil-fueled economy, reasonably deduce that “you can’t get there from here.” It’s just too big a task. If an energy transformation is impossible, why waste time on it?

With Reinventing Fire, RMI dispelled that myth.

A blueprint for how business can become more competitive and resilient by leading the transition from fossil fuels to efficiency and renewables, Reinventing Fire shows how we can unlock $5 trillion in value. Over the past fiscal year, RMI moved from research into full-on action, engaging with partners and projects to implement Reinventing Fire’s goals through tangible work across the transportation, electricity, buildings, and industrial sectors.
