About the Center for Energy Policy and the Environment
The Center for Energy Policy and the Environment advances ideas about the practical application
of free-market economic principles to address today's energy issues. It
challenges conventional wisdom about energy supplies, production, and
consumption, and examines the intersection of energy, the environment,
and economic and national security.
Senior Fellows Peter Huber and Max Schulz are leading our efforts to show
how a pro-growth, supply-side energy policy can be harmonized with a concern
for the environment. Peter Huber is a nationally recognized expert on
energy policy issues. His most recent book, The Bottomless Well,
traces the history of energy consumption and argues that technology is
making energy supplies inexhaustible. It has received wide acclaim, and
garnered praise from Bill Gates as "the only book I've ever seen
that really explains energy, its history and what it will be like going
forward." For four years, Max Schulz was a policy advisor and speechwriter
for secretaries Samuel Bodman and Spencer Abraham at the Department of
Energy. He worked extensively on issues ranging from energy supply and
demand to nuclear security and nonproliferation.
The Center's current initiatives include addressing the economic and national-security
issues related to the energy supply; advocating for the development of
credible advanced technologies; challenging conventional wisdom; and promoting
a workable energy and environmental policy. Through research papers, op-eds,
and conference and media appearances, the Center strives to be a reliable
resource for mature contributions to the energy policy debate.
The Center for Energy Policy and the Environment
includes Manhattan Institute Senior Fellows Peter
Huber and Max Schulz.

The Energy Challenge
On January 15, 2009, the Manhattan Institute was honored to host Michael G. Morris, Chairman,
President & CEO of American Electric Power. Mr. Morris discussed the energy challenges facing
the U.S., specifically, the transmission of renewable energy. His address was followed by a
Q & A with J.P. Donlon, editor of Chief Executive. Click here

On Tuesday, December 9, 2008, the Manhattan Institute hosted a luncheon for T. Boone Pickens, CEO of BP Capital. After being introduced by Peter Huber,
senior fellow at the Center for Energy Policy and the Environment, Pickens discussed the energy crisis facing America and laid out his solution, the
Pickens Plan for America's Energy Future. Pickens then sat down with J.P. Donlon, editor, Chief Executive magazine, for a discussion about his energy
proposal.
The full video of the event can be seen here and a
transcript of the conversation between Pickens and Donlon appeared in the January 2009 issue of Chief Executive,
"Gone With the Wind".
