Concepts and Missions

No Silver Bullets: A Portfolio Strategy

True carbon-neutrality requires coordinated progress across low-carbon-intensity hydrogen, bioresource conversion, electrification, carbon capture, resilient infrastructure and a spectrum of other approaches to accelerate collective impact. AzCaNE is driving Arizona’s transition to a carbon-neutral economy by 2050 through a bold, multi-pathway strategy that rejects one-size-fits-all solutions.

Holistic Platform

AzCaNE aligns data, funding and stakeholder goals under one strategic umbrella to accelerate clear, measurable roadmaps toward a resilient, inclusive carbon-neutral economy by 2050.

Guiding Principles

Equity, affordability, reliability and measurable targets ground our work. Transparent governance, data-driven analysis and inclusive stakeholder engagement ensure all voices shape the path forward.

Integrated Partnerships

AzCaNE combines direct leadership in focused projects with strategic alliances to align goals, optimize resources and avoid duplication across sectors.

Hydrogen as a Catalyst

Low-carbon-intensity hydrogen serves as our launch point and core tenet. Its versatility in long-duration storage, high-heat applications and heavy transport unlocks new carbon reduction options while scaling other technologies.
