Upcoming
This webinar features report authors discussing a recent report, jointly published by the CESA and Sandia National Laboratories, that highlights emerging strategies used by the leading states to advance energy storage adoption in underserved and low-income communities.
An increase in severe weather events, combined with aging energy infrastructure, is resulting in more frequent and longer duration power outages. This webinar will focus on innovative applications of solar+storage to assist vulnerable communities in the event of an outage and emergency event.
This event will bring together state and federal government officials and program staff who are working to implement IRA/BIL programs.
Recent
CESA’s annual members meeting will take place in May 2023 in Washington, DC. The event will emphasize networking and connections among states, and it will feature sessions on a wide range of topics.
As solar+storage is more widely adopted, it’s essential that organizations led by Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) can both access these technologies as well as participate in the development and implementation of resilient power systems. This webinar will spotlight the Detroit Clean Energy Contractor Accelerator program, which works to prepare local BIPOC contractors to lead the clean energy transition in Detroit and greater Michigan.
This webinar will provide an introduction for state and local policy makers about DoD’s clean energy and energy resilience policies and programs, and explore case studies of DoD’s active partnerships with local governments and utilities to make mutually beneficial resilience investments.
This webinar will feature a panel discussion with leaders from California, Connecticut, Minnesota, New Mexico, and North Carolina on the status of their states’ efforts to decarbonize.
This webinar highlights the efforts of The Faunteroy Community Enrichment Center and United Parents Against Lead, two organizations implementing unique community programs that complement, and amplify, their efforts to build a resilience hub, including the installation of solar+storage.
Energy modeling can be a powerful tool for state decarbonization planning, but it can also be costly and the results can be prone to misinterpretation. This webinar will provide advice on energy modeling and introduce resources useful to states embarking on decarbonization planning.
Speakers from CESA and Sandia will discuss the findings of a new report, “States Energy Storage Policy: Best Practices for Decarbonization.”
This webinar will highlight efforts to develop mobile resilient energy systems that can be transported to neighborhoods where the power is out, to support medically vulnerable and electricity-dependent residents.
CESA Research Fellow Charles Hua will discuss the findings of CESA’s new report reviewing the equity and environmental justice components of state 100% clean energy plans. Dr. Tony Reames of the US Department of Energy will place the states’ energy equity activities into the context of federal environmental justice initiatives, including the Justice40 Initiative.
Panelists will share information about a community solar project being developed by Holy Cross Energy (HCE), a rural electric cooperative in Colorado, that will benefit manufactured homes residents, including information on how the project has come to be, the programs and incentives utilized to support the project, how newly available Inflation Reduction Act incentives are being used to expand the project, how this project could be replicated and scaled up to benefit more mobile home residents throughout HCE’s service area, and more.
