About us

Rock Environment and Energy Institute (REEI), founded in July 2012 in Beijing and registered as non-for-profit organization in Shunyi Bureau of Civil Affairs in April 2018, is an independent think tank working on environment and energy policy research. We focus on energy transition policy and discuss how to achieve a low-carbon energy system. REEI formulate the policy analysis from three significant pillars, social justice, environmental sustainability and public health. We aim to promote open-minded  and participatory policy debates.
