RMI
Works on clean energy, market creation, finance, policy and efficiency across sectors and regions.
85% of weighted axes reviewed. A mechanism hypothesis, not proven effectiveness or a donation recommendation.
The proposed pathway
Energy market and implementation change
Six dimensions, with rationale
Structural depth
4 / 4Targets energy production, demand, investment and market structures.
Institutional reach
4 / 4Multi-sector international work creates potential reach beyond individual projects.
Durability
3 / 4Energy assets and institutional capabilities can persist.
Scalability
3 / 4Tools, market design and partnerships can be reused.
Funding additionality
UnreviewedUnknown: a current marginal funding gap, counterfactual and delivery capacity have not been audited.
Community agency
UnreviewedUnknown: decision rights and accountability to affected people have not been audited.
Evidence and selection
Organization reported
Illustrative inclusion to examine this mechanism. Inclusion is not an external recommendation or a verified comparative ranking.
A testable next question
Projects should demonstrate additional adoption and independently validated lifecycle emissions changes.
Review confidence: Low for systemic attribution; organization description only. Documented intervention design; not a complete audit of this organization.
What remains uncertain
A broad portfolio prevents one organization-wide causal estimate from this review. Self-reported reach is not additional emissions avoided.
