The CLEAN ENERGY LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE

With programs operating in Washington, DC, San Francisco, and Chicago, the Clean Energy Leadership Institute (CELI) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to developing a new kind of energy leadership.

We believe creating a diverse community of change-makers across sectors and disciplines will drive an equitable, decarbonized, and resilient energy ecosystem. We equip emerging leaders with the skills and expertise to lead the transition to a clean energy economy.

Over the last seven years, CELI has trained over 600 professionals from 450+ organizations through our signature Fellowship program and an additional 6,000+ students and professionals through our clean energy educational and community programming.

As someone with a strictly technical background, this was the most effective way I could imagine to get involved with the broader clean energy network. The quality of the program was only matched by the leaders’ enthusiasm. I would highly recommend CELI to anyone remotely interested in clean energy development.
— Mark Hughes, Engineer, Sila Nanotechnologies (SF Fellow 2018)
 
CELI has given me the education and space to share my voice and opinions. Every person in this community is willing to meet for coffee, listen to my questions, and share career advice. And the topical lectures and leadership skills that are part of the fellowship have made me so much better at conceptual analysis and communicating in my job.
— Emily Shorin, Associate, Electric Mobility, AES Next (DC Fellow 2019)

Clean Energy Education

CELI partners with universities, companies, and organizations to create on going education, professional development and Clean Energy 101 programming for students, clean energy professionals, and transitional candidates.
