The Challenge

How do you make people care about renewable energy beyond charts, targets, and policy language? For REN21’s 20th anniversary, the Annual Report and Strategic Briefs needed to translate complex data into a compelling, human story that captured the lived impact of the global energy transition.

The Solution

We reimagined the Annual Report to connect global ambition to local action. Beyond the printed and digital report, we designed a full launch campaign for multiple platforms. Alongside the report, we developed Strategic Intelligence Briefs to strengthen REN21’s voice across policy, advocacy, and cross-sector audiences.

The Results

118 members

have a shared narrative and evidence base that improved visibility, activated stakeholders, and supported funding and policy influence.

20 years

Translated 20 years of expertise into a clear, confident leadership narrative that reinforces trust with funders, policymakers, and partners.

2025-2030 strategy

Supported by aligning the Annual Report and Strategic Intelligence Briefs to forward priorities.

Our Journey with REN21

How do you show the world the real impact of renewable energy leadership?

For REN21, it’s about shifting policy, sparking collaboration, and accelerating the global energy transition.

They asked us to help make their influence visible and tangible. We worked together to tell the story of their impact through a flagship project amplified across editorial features, social media, and digital experiences.

We created a multi-platform narrative that invites people to join REN21’s mission: boosting visibility, inspiring new members, and opening doors for greater funding and support.

Working with Future by Design was seamless and inspiring. They truly understood REN21's mission and helped us translate our collective achievements into a digital report that is fresh, engaging, and future-oriented.
