Founded in 2017, the REMADE Institute is a 165+ member public-private partnership established and funded in part by the U.S. Department of Energy with an initial investment of $140 million. Part of the federal government's Manufacturing USA network, REMADE is dedicated to accelerating the U.S.'s transition to a Circular Economy.

Investments in renewables are critical, but they can only get us a little more than halfway - 55% - toward our nation's net-zero by 2050 goal. A Circular Economy approach to how we make and use things - how we manufacture and use everyday products - will make up the remaining 45%, getting us all the way to net-zero. 

REMADE is committed to meeting the nation's climate and industrial decarbonization goals by addressing manufacturing's impact on climate change. Today, manufacturing accounts for 25% of U.S. energy consumption at a cost of $150 billion. Industry is also the third-largest contributor to U.S. greenhouse gas emissions at 22%. 

Together with our partners, REMADE invests in early-stage R&D projects that reduce energy consumption, decrease greenhouse gas emissions, conserve resources, increase the supply and use of recycled materials, enhance the resiliency of the nation's supply chain, increase U.S. manufacturing competitiveness, and create clean economy jobs. 

The technologies that REMADE develops increase the reuse, remanufacturing, recovery and recycling of four "hard-to-abate" materials: metals, plastics/polymers, fibers/paper, and e-waste. These technologies, once fully deployed, are capable of :
- saving 1 quad of energy, the equivalent of conserving 180 million barrels of oil
- reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50 MMT per year, the equivalent of eliminating the annual emissions of 11.5 million cars
- generating billions of dollars in new opportunities, supporting U.S. economic growth
- creating and retaining hundreds of thousands of direct and indirect jobs in the U.S.
