In this CESA webinar, Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe’s Eugene Strowbridge provided an overview of a forthcoming case study exploring the Tribal-State relationship through the experiences of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, which began developing its Sustainability Program in 2014.
In this webinar, speakers from Clean Energy Group will answer some of the most commonly asked questions about the design, installation, and economics of solar and battery storage for homes, businesses, and community facilities.
Manufactured homes (aka “mobile” homes) are an important form of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income (LMI) households. But they can often be energy-inefficient and difficult to weatherize, resulting in high energy bills and energy burdens. In this CESA webinar, speakers discussed Berkeley Lab’s report that proposes combining community solar subscriptions with air-source heat pump installations and managing bill credits to reduce winter heating bills.
In this webinar, panelists discussed the municipal planning process for battery storage projects in Massachusetts. Experts provided an overview of the current landscape for energy storage permitting and siting. They discussed sizing and zoning considerations, environmental justice and equity considerations for siting energy storage projects, and best practices for municipalities.
CESA will host an interactive meeting with researchers from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), open exclusively to state and federal employees. In this meeting, NREL researchers will showcase preliminary analysis demonstrating the impact of varying policy design choices on future state energy portfolios, followed by a moderated discussion.
The Offshore Wind and Equity National Workshop is a 3-day virtual event that will bring together representatives from state agencies and community-based organizations (CBOs) to identify how state agencies can incorporate principles of Equity and Justice into the offshore wind planning and development process.
This CESA webinar features free tools developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that can help states with their clean energy grant applications by quantifying the co-benefits of clean energy policies.
In 2023, the California Energy Commission (CEC) created the first-in-the-world flexible demand appliance standard for residential swimming pool controls. In this CESA webinar, guest speakers from the CEC presented their award-winning Flexible Demand Appliance Standards for Pool Controls program, featuring CEC Commissioner Andrew McAllister.
In this webinar, guest speakers from Energy Allies and the Boston Community Solar Cooperative (BCSC) will discuss their adaptable model for community-led solar. The BCSC grew out of a grassroots coalition of individuals, businesses and nonprofits organizing for an equitable transition to a clean energy economy in Boston’s Environmental Justice Communities. Energy Allies supported the formation of BCSC as a community-led, community-benefiting organization.
Many joined CEG for an interactive 2-hour session exploring the best practices, opportunities, and obstacles in advancing resilient power – solar PV paired with battery storage (solar+storage) – in historically marginalized communities.
