Global Energy Monitor


Global Energy Monitor develops and analyzes data on energy infrastructure, resources, and uses. We provide open access to information that is essential to building a sustainable energy future.


Meeting an urgent need

In a world confronting climate change, data that informs strategies and solutions is more important than ever. Global Energy Monitor (GEM)studies the evolving international energy landscape, creating databases, reports, and interactive tools that enhance understanding. Our work transforms complexity into clarity, enhancing the quality of public discourse on energy and the environment.


Levels of understanding

GEM is developing a comprehensive set of tools that allow users to zoom out for summaries and analysis at the regional or global scale, or zoom in for background and details on any element of the system β€” coal mine, nuclear power plant, wind farm, oil extraction field, or fossil gas pipeline.


Open, accessible data

GEM seeks to make reliable energy data available to the world. We make our tools freely availableβ€”granting unrestricted access to anyone with an internet connection. We believe that the data we gather should be accessible to everyone, as we believe that everyone is affected by the issues our work addresses.


Accountability and transparency

All data used in Global Energy Monitor’s work is attributed to an original source. These attributions enable users to identify where information is coming from, and to independently verify any information they may want to examine further. As our research efforts strive to follow the pace of global energy development, we remain committed to full accountability and transparency in our work.

About USAFacts

Steve Ballmer launched USAFacts.org in 2017, a not-for-profit organization whose goal is to allow people to understand U.S. government revenue, spending and societal impact. He is reported to have contributed $10 million to fund teams of researchers who populated the website's database with official data.
