Amory Lovins is Chairman and Chief Scientist of the Rocky Mountain
Institute, a MacArthur Fellowship recipient (1993), and author and co-author
of many books on renewable energy and energy efficiency.

Lovins has worked professionally as an environmentalist and an advocate for
a "soft energy path" for the United States and other nations. He has
promoted energy-use and energy-production concepts based on energy
conservation, efficiency, the use of renewable sources of energy, and on
generation of energy at or near the site where the energy is actually used.
His books include Winning the Oil Endgame, Factor Four, and Natural
Capitalism. In the 1990s, his work with the Rocky Mountain Institute
included the design of an ultra-efficient automobile, the Hypercar.

Lovins has provided expert testimony in eight countries and more than 20 US
states, briefed 19 heads of state, and published 29 books.
