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.
2026 Annual Meeting
Energy Security in an Era of Recurring Geopolitical Shocks
Recent geopolitical shocks are putting energy security in sharp focus from disruptions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine to renewed instability in the Gulf. At the same time, intensifying strategic competition between major powers, including the United States, China, and Europe, is reshaping trade, technology access, and supply chains for energy and critical materials. Together, these dynamics signal a deeper structural reality: energy systems are being transformed not only by decarbonization, but by recurring disruptions and growing fragmentation of the global economy and geopolitics.
Against this backdrop, the 15th Annual Meeting will convene leaders from academia, industry, and policy to examine the evolving foundations of energy security in a more volatile world. The program will explore how infrastructure, technology, and policy must co-evolve to deliver systems that are not only low carbon, but resilient, affordable, and scalable.
