What is CATF’s approach?

• Change the narrative to communicate the size of the problem and totality of solution requirements
• Change technology to make available a diverse set of carbon-free options including advanced renewables, zero-carbon fuels, carbon capture, advanced nuclear, and superhot rock energy at an affordable cost
• Change business models to include modular, manufacturable energy solutions that can be deployed anywhere quickly
• Change policy to develop, demonstrate, and scale-up the technologies and systems needed to achieve net-zero emissions by mid-century
