    How AI engines see them

    Recognized by 5 of 5 measured engines. Updated 2026-10-26

    All five engines agree that Jesse Jenkins is an associate professor at Princeton University who leads the ZERO Lab and models zero-carbon energy systems. Most name the Net-Zero America study, and several link his modeling to the Inflation Reduction Act. ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode add that he co-founded Firma Power. Copilot adds the GenX model and his TIME recognition in 2024. Gemini also names Rondo Energy among the companies he advises. The engines cite princeton.edu pages, including zero.lab.princeton.edu and mae.princeton.edu, most often.
