These memberships in research-industry partnerships strengthen SEP’s ability to offer data-driven cleantech solutions to F500 corporations and build startups in cleantech innovation hubs.
The Stanford Energy Hydrogen Initiative is an interdisciplinary collaboration of researchers at Stanford University, spanning engineering, science, policy, and business. The initiative aims to harness the power of hydrogen to achieve significant decarbonization of global energy systems. By partnering with industry leaders, thought pioneers, and governments, the initiative promotes the use of hydrogen as a clean energy solution. It includes research, education such as workshops and symposia, and community building.
SEP has also joined SECA, which serves as a gateway for organizations interested in energy research at Stanford. SECA facilitates robust interactions between industry entities and Stanford's esteemed faculty and graduate students, fostering collaborative research and knowledge exchange. By participating in SECA, SEP gains access to a wide range of energy-related topics, including interdisciplinary studies and specialized focus areas, nurturing partnerships that drive impactful advancements in the energy landscape.
