Become a sponsor to Catalyst Cooperative
Catalyst is an all remote team, currently scattered across North America. We take data from public agencies and make it usable by grassroots activists, researchers working on the energy transition, public policymakers, NGOs, journalists and anybody else who can't afford access to commercial data products.
Our backgrounds are a mix of energy & climate policy, earth science, and software engineering.
We want to level the playing field and ensure that climate advocates aren't at a disadvantage when they engage with incumbent utilities and fossil fuel interests in the halls of state legislatures, in front of utility commissions, or when studying rapid decarbonization pathways.
