SAFE is an action-oriented, nonpartisan organization committed to transportation, energy, and supply chain policies that advance the economic and national security of the United States and global allies. SAFE works with its Energy Security Leadership Council—a peerless coalition of current and former Fortune 500 CEOs and retired 4-star admirals and generals—to support secure, resilient, and responsible energy solutions.

SAFE’s Pillars

In a polarized political environment, SAFE has remained focused on real-world, pragmatic solutions that address supply- and demand-side solutions as part of a comprehensive energy security strategy.

1. Energy Dominance for Strength and Prosperity: Ensure America has affordable and reliable energy through responsible domestic production, strategic partnerships, and support for technological breakthroughs.
2. Critical Material Security: Build self-reliant supply chains for critical materials essential to defense, technology, and economic competitiveness.
3. Infrastructure Resilience: Fortify U.S. grids and critical systems against cyber, physical, and operational threats
4. American Innovation: Advance technologies that bolster U.S. industrial leadership in mobility, manufacturing, and materials
5. Domestic Solutions First: Prioritize U.S.-led initiatives and mobilize public-private partnerships for secure and sustainable growth.

Global Initiatives

SAFE has expanded its focus beyond American energy security to encompass international energy security, mineral supply chains, and industrial capacity issues—prioritizing the intersection of defense needs and energy innovation. SAFE works globally on mineral security policy and is bringing its pragmatic, solutions-driven approach to Europe through the European Initiative for Energy Security.

National Security Focus

SAFE ensures a national security perspective is infused in its work by collaborating closely with the retired 4-star Admirals and Generals of its peerless Energy Security Leadership Council.
