Abstract

On March 18 and 19, 2009, Sandia National Labo­ratories and the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Sustainability Solutions Institute (SSI) brought together 27 leaders from academia, govern­ment, and the private sector to discuss key energy policy issues and proposed values- and outcomes-based approaches to energy policy. The goal of the workshop was to bring together leaders from diverse backgrounds to identify promising areas for energy policy, based on the understanding of intersecting issues, assumptions, and priorities from the national security, economic, and environmental perspectives.
