MEF
For Researchers & Professionals

Research ThatReaches the Field

Your expertise shouldn’t stay in the journal.

Publish reports that get cited, work on problems that are running in the field right now, mentor the people entering climate, and take the stage when the ecosystem convenes.

01Publication

Publish With Reach

MEF publishes sector reports, case studies, and policy insights that circulate among investors, corporates, and institutions — work with your name on it, read by the people who act on it.

Sector Reports

BESS, EV charging, biochar, CCUS — flagship reports that investors and policymakers actually cite.

Case Studies

Document what worked in the field — pilots, programmes, and the numbers behind them.

Policy Insights

Briefs and working papers that reach the institutions drafting the rules.

Biochar report cover
CCUS report cover
Chemical recycling report cover
Choking Delhi report cover
02Working Groups

Collaborate on Live Problems

The research questions here are not hypothetical — they come from pilots and programmes already running in the field, waiting on exactly your kind of expertise.

Working Groups

Standing groups across sectors — energy, mobility, waste, water — where research questions come from real programmes.

Field Projects

The AgriGuru pilot runs with Punjab Agricultural University expertise guiding AWD calibration. Your domain could anchor the next one.

Data & Models

Field sensors, traffic simulations, impact dashboards — datasets and models that need expert hands.

03Mentoring

Mentor the Next Generation

Students building their first projects and founders building their first companies both run on the same fuel: someone experienced taking an hour to look at their work.

  • Guide student research projects

  • Advise climate-tech founders in accelerator cohorts

  • Review reports and publications before they ship

  • Run a Climate 101 or a masterclass in your domain

04Voice

Speak & Convene

When the ecosystem gathers — summits, webinars, demo days — it needs people who know what they’re talking about at the front of the room.
