About the Air, Climate, and Energy Research Program

Strategic Research Action Plan 2023-2026
ORD's Air, Climate, and Energy research program FY23-26 StRAP cover

ACE StRAP for Fiscal Years 2023-2026

What We Do

EPA’s Air, Climate, and Energy (ACE) Research Program recognizes that addressing the increasing risks posed by climate change and reducing the disproportionate burdens faced by low-income and minority communities requires effective air quality risk management with consideration of criteria and other toxic air pollutants, indoor air quality, wildfires, and the transformation of our energy and transportation systems. The ACE Research Program lays the foundation for research that promotes the strategic objectives of the Agency to improve air quality, address the causes and consequences of climate change, and protect public health and the environment.
