REE is excited to share insights from its funded research projects through a series of webinars taking place across 2026. The events will explore timely economic development issues in fossil–dependent regions, with a goal to inform policymaking by local, state, tribal, and federal governments.
View the series hereREE was established in 2024 to develop strategies that strengthen the economies of fossil fuel–dependent communities across the United States as the energy system transforms. We support action-oriented research to find what works, then transform that research into policy ideas for local, state, tribal, and federal policymakers. We're also building a community of scholars, policymakers and economic development practitioners to share knowledge and build relationships across the nation's energy communities.

More research is needed on how to increase the economic resilience of fossil fuel–dependent regions. Developing new knowledge in this area is critical to supporting communities during the United States’ energy transition.
