Advancing Towards 100% Clean Energy: A State-Federal Summit was hosted by US Department of Energy, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and the Clean Energy States Alliance. The Summit focused on how states and the federal government can work cooperatively to accelerate states’ efforts to decarbonize.

The keynote speaker at the Summit was David Turk, Deputy Secretary of the US Department of Energy

The nearly 200 attendees at the Summit had the opportunity to:

• Meet state officials and stakeholders working on deep decarbonization in states across the country;
• Hear from and interact with federal officials who are administering federal clean energy initiatives;
• Explore opportunities for state implementation of provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law;
• Learn about innovative state-level clean energy programs.

The first day of the Summit was open to all stakeholders, while the second day was limited to state and federal government employees.
