The Energy Institute was formed in 2008 to reconsider approaches to large scale energy production and storage.  We serve and are compromised of all campuses of the City University of New York, with a mission to create, evaluate, and provide a seed for the implementation of technologies which provide low cost, sustainable energy solutions tailored for the various environs that make up New York State, from preserving the serenity of the Adirondack region to meeting challenges of powering New York City.

The Energy Institute takes a comprehensive approach to this problem, combining fundamental studies of energy storage materials and mechanisms with industrial experience in scaling and maintaining technologies.
