What is the GTSP?
GTSP is a research program of the Joint Global Change Research Institute supported by both the public and private sponsors. GTSP explores strategic issues at the intersection of energy, technology, policy, and climate change.
What We Do
The GTSP conducts research to improve scientific understanding of the interactions between energy, technology, policy, and climate change. The results of GTSP-funded research are communicated in scholarly papers, briefings, analyses, participation in community activities, and through the GTSP Annual Meeting.
Who We Are
GTSP-funded researchers are thought leaders in the research community, publishing research in the high-visibility, peer-reviewed economic and scientific literature. GTSP researchers occupy leadership roles in national and international research communities that explore the intersection of energy, technology, policy, and climate change.
The Joint Global Change Research Institute is a collaboration of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the University of Maryland.
What We Research
The GTSP conducts research in five interconnected areas: Technology Analysis, Regional Analysis, Scenario Development, Technology and Institutions, and Core Model Development. Research topics are chosen to inform contemporary public- and private-sector decisions, where the value of good decisions is high and where a strategic perspective is essential for near-term decision-making.
