    Clean Energy Group and Clean Energy State Alliance November webinars

    UPCOMING WEBINARS

    Clean Energy Group and the Clean Energy States Alliance are hosting multiple upcoming webinars in November. Read more and register below.

     

    Innovative Avenues to Public Participation in Clean Energy Development, featuring Connecticut and Washington

    Wednesday, November 9, 1-2:30pm ET

    This Clean Energy States Alliance webinar features recipients of the 2022 State Leadership in Clean Energy Awards

    The Connecticut Green Bank's Green Liberty Bonds program, which is modelled after the war bonds of the 1940s, allows individual investors to purchase bonds in low-dollar denominations, enabling people to directly participate in the green economy and earn a return on their investment.

    In Washington, the 2021 State Energy Strategy provides a roadmap for the state to meet its critical and ambitious energy and climate goals: transitioning to 100% clean electricity by 2045 and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. 

    These impressive and impactful programs are accelerating the development of clean energy while increasing public participation in the process. REGISTER HERE

     

    Resilient Solar+Storage for Cooling Centers

    Wednesday, November 16, 1-2pm ET

    Extreme heat is responsible for more weather-related deaths than any other weather event. A new report by Clean Energy Group examines the opportunity for resilient solar+storage to provide reliable backup power to cooling centers. The report, Resilient Solar and Battery Storage for Cooling Centers: Mitigating the Impacts of Extreme Heat on Vulnerable Populations, explores health impacts and project economics, and it includes seven case studies from across the country.

    In this Clean Energy Group webinar, report author Marriele Mango will present her findings. She will be joined by Nate Mills from American Microgrid Solutions, and Nicole Lim from the California Indian Museum and Cultural Center, which is in the process of developing a resilient solar+storage installation to support cooling center operations.

    Behind-the-Meter Energy Storage: Comparing State Policies

    Thursday, November 17, 1-2pm ET

    A variety of studies and disparate datasets track state energy storage polices, but these datasets do not cover all behind-the-meter (BTM) related storage policy. Moreover, these databases do not align these policies with the policy stacking framework. Thus, it is unclear what BTM storage policies are adopted across the country, what should comprise a complete storage policy framework or stack, and how states policies compare against that stack.

    A new report by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) addresses this gap in the literature by developing a state policy stack for BTM battery storage compared across all fifty states. This first-of-its-kind BTM storage policy stack includes 11 parent policy categories, and 31 associated policies divided across the market preparation, creation, and expansion policy components.

    In this Energy Storage Technology Advancement Partnership webinar, report author Jeff Cook from NREL will present his findings. CESA's Todd Olinsky-Paul will moderate. REGISTER HERE
