Read source ↗ All evidence

Summary

This policy analysis, published by the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation in 2020, examines clean energy stimulus design as a middle ground between transformative Green New Deal ambitions and conventional energy policy approaches. The paper evaluates policy mechanisms and implementation pathways suited to contemporary economic and climatic circumstances, as suggested by the title and publication context. Given its focus on energy rather than agricultural systems, applicability to Vitagri's core research scope is limited.

UK applicability

While this paper addresses US clean energy policy, UK readers may find relevant insights in comparative stimulus design and the trade-offs between ambitious climate goals and pragmatic implementation—lessons potentially applicable to UK decarbonisation policy. However, the paper does not address agricultural systems, soil health, or food system transformation directly.

Key measures

Policy framework comparisons; stimulus design options and trade-offs

Outcomes reported

The paper examines policy approaches to clean energy stimulus packages, positioning alternatives between ambitious Green New Deal proposals and incremental business-as-usual energy policy. It evaluates stimulus design options in the context of economic and climate circumstances.
