Overview
The Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP) provides technical assistance to utility and environmental regulators to facilitate the adoption of clean energy policies in the world’s largest power markets. In this grant period, RAP intends to support accelerated grid decarbonization and electrification of transportation, buildings, and industry in the U.S., China, and Europe. It supports the grantee ecosystem in phasing out natural gas in the U.S. and Europe. (Substrategy: Electrification)

Grants to this Grantee
for general operating support
The Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP) focuses on key policy areas to drive a more efficient and equitable decarbonized energy future and to ensure a sustainable and just transition. RAP develops solutions to the questions that regulators and other public, private, and non-government organization decision makers are asking (or should be asking), working to change the narrative and leverage partnerships to accelerate change. RAP’s four policy areas are (a) faster electrification of buildings and transportation, (b) faster phaseouts of gas infrastructure, (c) removing barriers to distributed energy, and (d) decarbonizing the electric grid. Across these four areas, RAP provides decision makers in the power sector with global best practices — and the expertise to implement them. (Substrategy: Electrification)
