WASHINGTON, Dec. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) President and incoming CEO Dr. Arshad Mansoor last week shared a sobering assessment of the rate and scale of economy-wide decarbonization in the U.S. and detailed the central roles that science, research, and innovation must play in the Biden administration s energy and climate agenda.
