External Partnerships
The Andlinger Center works to solve complex energy and environment challenges that benefit from the diverse expertise and perspectives of a strong network of stakeholder groups including academic, corporate, government, and non-profit organizations. Engagement with these partners through research and events helps catalyze knowledge transfer and accelerate deployment of applied solutions. Conferences, workshops, seminars, and other meetings are held with the goal of igniting authentic, thoughtful interaction across sectors that lead to new insights and novel innovations. An important vehicle for this collaboration is a formidable corporate affiliates program administered by the Center called “Princeton E-ffiliates Partnership” or simply “E-ffiliates.”
E-ffiliates
Princeton E-ffiliates Partnership (E-ffiliates) is a campus-wide membership program that positions organizations to engage in close collaborations with academic experts, Princeton students, and other partners from diverse sectors on global energy challenges and environmental concerns. E-ffiliates provides a robust perspective on real-world problems and helps engender honest dialogue and cooperation between our members and the wider Princeton University community.

Andlinger Center 2024 Annual Meeting
While the artificial intelligence boom is poised to transform how we understand and solve global challenges, its heavy reliance on energy and water has led to concerns about its own impact on the environment. This year’s Annual Meeting was on October 29, and explored how we can harness the power of AI to make rapid progress in global decarbonization efforts and navigate the risks that AI will create for achieving a clean and just energy future.
