Paul Meier, P.E., Ph.D.

Paul’s work has consistently transformed energy and environmental data into actionable information. He has developed and co-developed multiple decision support tools, including for electric utility planning, heavy duty freight emissions analysis, and transportation fuel-cycle assessment.

Meier is the founder of JuiceBox software, which accelerates energy resource planning using the principals of networked multi-user games, making possible “local-to-global” analysis of low-emission energy futures. Meier was the Director of Engineering for Blumont Engineering Solutions from 2016 – 2018. His work included evaluating power-sector emission projection methodologies on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and assisting the Massachusetts Institute of Technology study on The Future of Nuclear Energy in a Carbon-Constrained World. In 2017 and 2018, USEPA contracted for JuiceBox software to evaluate its use as a stakeholder accessible modeling platform. Paul previously served as a scientist at the University of Wisconsin—Madison from 2006 -2016, including as Director of the UW Energy Institute from 2006 – 2012. His research focused on air quality and climate impacts for national-scale technology and infrastructure pathways.
