Welcome to the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA).
We are a new independent research organisation focused on revealing the trends, causes, and health impacts, as well as the solutions to air pollution.
Health-harming pollutants from burning fossil fuels are responsible for at least 3 million air pollution deaths per year. However, rapid advances in modern, clean energy technologies are a key opportunity to improve air quality and protect public health.
We use scientific data, research and evidence to support the efforts of governments, companies and campaigning organizations worldwide in their efforts to move towards clean energy and clean air. We believe that effective research and communication are the key to successful policies, investment decisions and advocacy efforts.

Speeding up the coal phase-out to 2030, a target that would be better aligned with the Paris agreement would further halve the pollutant emissions and health impacts from German coal plants.
The economic impact of future German coal power emissions from healthcare costs, reduced economic productivity and welfare losses amounts to an estimated present value of €73 billion.
