The University of Chicago, in partnership with several universities and national laboratories, has established the Center for Robust Decision Making on Climate and Energy Policy (the RDCEP Center). The Center has brought together experts in economics, physical sciences, energy technologies, law, computational mathematics, statistics, and computer science and we are currently working on a series of tightly connected research programs. Ultimately this research aims to improve the computational models needed to evaluate climate and energy policies, and to make robust decisions based on outcomes.
