CCTP External Interactions

CCTP taps expert opinion and technical input from various external parties through advisory groups, program peer-review, conferences, international partnerships, and other activities.

In addition, CCTP staff convenes technical workshops and meetings with experts both inside and outside the Federal Government.  CCTP activities are of interest to a number of external parties, including State and local governments, regional planning organizations, academic institutions, national laboratories, and non-governmental organizations.

They are of interest, as well, to foreign governments and international organizations, such as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the International Energy Agency (IEA), the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and various global and regional compacts.

CCTP communicates its activities to such entities and provides coordinated support, through the relevant agency programs, for enhanced external and international cooperation by engaging with and supporting activities of mutual interest.
