The Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP)® is an independent, non-partisan, non-governmental organization dedicated to accelerating the transition to a clean, reliable, and efficient energy future. We are former utility and environmental regulators, industry executives, system operators, and other policymakers and officials with extensive experience in the power sector. Our team focuses on the world\'s four largest power markets, responsible for half of all power generation: China, the European Union, India, and the United States. Because of the power sector\'s size and complexity, inertia in the system is inevitable: change does not come quickly. Enormous political and technical challenges face those seeking to improve the economic efficiency of the sector, reduce its environmental footprint, advance clean energy solutions, and mitigate climate change. RAP’s global team has first-hand knowledge of the constraints and challenges policymakers face. Building on peer-to-peer relationships, RAP helps energy and air quality regulators and NGOs navigate the complexities of power sector policy, regulation, and markets. Policymakers depend on RAP staff for reliable and relevant information and assistance. We develop innovative and practical policy and market solutions designed to meet local needs, and through our network, can quickly share lessons learned across the globe. Informed by RAP’s global experience, power sector decision-makers and NGOs have access to a constantly expanding set of adaptable policy tools. And those working to transform power markets can take advantage of lessons learned from solutions developed and tested around the world.
