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)
