About the Center
for Energy Policy and the Environment
The Center for Energy Policy and the Environment advances ideas
about the practical application of free-market economic principles to
address today's energy issues. It challenges conventional wisdom about
energy supplies, production, and consumption, and examines the intersection
of energy, the environment, and economic and national security.
Senior Fellows Peter Huber and Max Schulz are leading our efforts to show
how a pro-growth, supply-side energy policy can be harmonized with a concern
for the environment. Peter Huber is a nationally recognized expert on
energy policy issues. His most recent book, The Bottomless Well,
traces the history of energy consumption and argues that technology is
making energy supplies inexhaustible. It has received wide acclaim, and
garnered praise from Bill Gates as "the only book I've ever seen
that really explains energy, its history and what it will be like going
forward." For four years, Max Schulz was a policy advisor and speechwriter
for secretaries Samuel Bodman and Spencer Abraham at the Department of
Energy. He worked extensively on issues ranging from energy supply and
demand to nuclear security and nonproliferation.
The Center's current initiatives include addressing the economic and national-security
issues related to the energy supply; advocating for the development of
credible advanced technologies; challenging conventional wisdom; and promoting
a workable energy and environmental policy. Through research papers, op-eds,
and conference and media appearances, the Center strives to be a reliable
resource for mature contributions to the energy policy debate.
The Center for Energy
Policy and the Environment includes Manhattan Institute Senior
Fellows Peter Huber and Max
Schulz.
