CEF Director Jennifer Turner Cited by The Christian Science Monitor

The Christian Science Monitor recently published an article citing Dr. Jennifer Turner in a discussion about clean energy development.

In the article entitled "China: how to rev up a clean-energy laggard," Dr. Jennifer Turner discussed with the Christian Science Monitor on how the recent solar panel trade war has impacted U.S.-China collaboration on clean energy development.
