SUMMARY:NEWIEE's 2022 "Women Shaping the Agenda"
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1656901381822{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nNEWIEE’s eighth annual program in the “Women Shaping the Agenda” series will be held on Wednesday\, August 3rd from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1657675508157{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nDoing Well by Doing Good: the Business of ESG and how It’s driving positive change in energy and environment\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1659957787433{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]From board rooms to break rooms and beyond\, ESG is a hot topic. Once considered a tool for assessing socially conscious investment\, ESG (Environment\, Social\, Governance) factors are now considered a critical tool to help assess and manage risk\, performance and impact. Increased activism in areas like climate change\, social and environmental justice\, and diversity\, equity\, and inclusion have shone a spotlight on the ESG practices of companies across the globe. \nJoin us at NEWIEE’s 2022 Women Shaping the Agenda event to learn how ESG practices and reporting have become a driver for positive change in energy and environment. Our panelists will discuss strategic considerations\, opportunities and challenges\, and lessons learned as companies work to minimize their impact on the climate and communities while continuing to deliver financially. \nPlease see below for important COVID-19 safety protocols for this event. \nYou are welcome to download any event photos linked at the button below. Please feel free to share them on social or your organization’s marketing. We just ask that you credit this back to the NEWIEE Annual WSTA Program.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][mk_button size=”medium” url=”https://www.jennifermacneilphotography.com/newieewsta2022″ target=”_blank” align=”center” button_custom_width=”250″ margin_right=”0″ bg_color=”#614c8d”]Photos Available[/mk_button][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][mk_button size=”medium” url=”https://newiee.org/wp-content/uploads/SignatureEvents/2022/WSTA/WSTA-ESG-Definitions.pdf” target=”_blank” align=”center” button_custom_width=”250″ margin_right=”0″ bg_color=”#614c8d”]Read about ESG[/mk_button][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][mk_button size=”medium” url=”https://newiee.org/wp-content/uploads/SignatureEvents/2022/WSTA/08.2022_NEWIEE-WSTA-Page-Program-2022.pdf” target=”_blank” align=”center” button_custom_width=”250″ margin_right=”0″ bg_color=”#614c8d”]WSTA Program[/mk_button][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][mk_button size=”medium” url=”https://newiee.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/newiee_2022-wsta_press-release_7.25.22.pdf” target=”_blank” align=”center” button_custom_width=”250″ margin_right=”0″ bg_color=”#614c8d”]Read Press Release[/mk_button][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][mk_page_section min_height=”0″ sidebar=”sidebar-1″][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_separator color=”custom” el_width=”30″ accent_color=”#189c8e”][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1624743028722{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nPanelists\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1656940154074{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nKeynote Address:\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-2 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-3 vc_col-xs-6″][vc_single_image image=”19521″ img_size=”170×170″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-2 vc_col-xs-8″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1656940692969{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Susan Bysiewicz\nConnecticut Lieutenant Governor[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][mk_toggle title=”Lt.

Bysiewicz is continuing her commitment to economic growth that made her a leading voice for Connecticut residents and small businesses while she served as Secretary of the State from 1999 to 2011. As Secretary of the State\, she helped thousands of businesses grow\, registered thousands of voters\, cut bureaucratic red tape\, honored veterans\, and fought to keep elections fair. \nAs a state representative in the Connecticut General Assembly\, representing the towns of Middletown\, Middlefield\, and Durham\, Bysiewicz wrote legislation to ban dangerous “drive-through” mastectomies and ensure that women being treated for breast cancer had proper care. She also fought political patronage and wrote the law to ban lobbyists from giving gifts to legislators. \nAs a business lawyer and a job creator\, she has helped over sixty companies access millions of dollars in capital\, expand their businesses\, and create thousands of jobs in Connecticut. \nLt. Gov. Bysiewicz was raised the proud granddaughter of immigrants who came to Connecticut from Poland and Greece with nothing but hopes for a better future. After many years of factory work\, they saved enough to buy a farm in Middletown that became Bysiewicz’s childhood home. Growing up and working on the farm\, she and her siblings learned the values of hard work\, education\, and persistence. \nLt. Gov. Bysiewicz graduated from Middletown High School\, Yale University and Duke Law School. She is the author of Ella: A Biography of Ella Grasso\, Connecticut’s 83rd governor. Bysiewicz and her husband David Donaldson reside in Middletown. \n[/mk_toggle][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1561121272600{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nPanelists:\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-2 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-3 vc_col-xs-6″][vc_single_image image=”19523″ img_size=”170×170″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-2 vc_col-xs-8″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1656940858081{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Laney Brown\nSVP Sustainability\nAvangrid[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][mk_toggle title=”Laney’s Bio” el_class=”bio-toggle”]\nLaney Brown is currently the Vice President of Sustainability at AVANGRID.

SUMMARY:WEN's I am the Master of my Fate
DESCRIPTION:Are Women Best Equipped to Lead the Energy Transition? \nAt WEN’s national conference in Forth Worth\, Jennifer explained why the oil and gas industry is currently living through an existential crisis – and\, posited that women are best equipped to lead us through it. Join WEN in Boston to dive deeper into challenges that surround the energy transition and tips (for women and men!) on navigating them within our own industries. \nThere is no market consensus on winning technologies for the hardest to abate sectors\, meanwhile even the ‘low hanging fruit’ comes with difficult implementation challenges. Importantly\, it all requires tremendous levels of spending and collaboration; solutions will likely test the limits of electrification\, local regulations\, and internal conflict. Where are we headed and how do we steer the ship?

SUMMARY:NEWIEE & CPES: Meeting CT's New Carbon-Free Power Goals: What's the Role for Peaker Plants?
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1661210618080{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nJoin the New England Women in Energy and the Environment (NEWIEE) and the Connecticut Power and Energy Society (CPES) for our eighth annual joint event on Thursday\, September 22! This panel discussion will surround peaker plants and their role as Connecticut works towards a carbon-free future. \nPeaker plants serve a unique role in our current grid by providing key reliability services. However\, many peakers emit pollutants at a higher rate than baseload plants. The majority are located in communities with a higher percentage of low-income households\, and peakers disproportionately impact communities of color. As Connecticut acts on its commitment to a decarbonized energy future\, what are our alternatives for filling the role currently played by fossil peakers? What are the business\, policy\, infrastructure\, market and equity pieces that need to fall into place to make this transition? Our panelists are all regional leaders who have been actively tackling these questions. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1661211163387{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nPanelists\n\nAlicia Barton\, Chief Executive Officer at FirstLight Power\nTracy Babbidge\, Chief of the Bureau of Air Management at the CT DEEP\nKatherine Rougeux\, Business Development Manager at the New York Power Authority\nSharon Lewis\, Executive Director at the CT Coalition on Environmental & Economic Justice\n\nModerated by:\n\nAnne George\, VP of External Affairs at ISO New England and former Connecticut DPUC Commissioner\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_separator color=”custom” el_width=”30″ accent_color=”#189c8e”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1661210861421{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nIn Person & Virtual Event at UCONN School of Law \n[/vc_column_text][mk_button size=”large” url=”https://events.r20.constantcontact.com/register/eventReg?oeidk=a07ejc7f35040ddceca&oseq=&c=&ch=” target=”_blank” align=”center” button_custom_width=”350″]Register Here[/mk_button][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”false” align=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1661211570590{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nSponsored by: \n[/vc_column_text][mk_clients style=”column” column=”1″ count=”1″ autoplay=”false” clients=”8867″][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:EBC 3rd Annual Connecticut Offshore Wind Conference
DESCRIPTION:This EBC 3rd Annual Connecticut Offshore Wind Program will include experts in the offshore wind energy industry who are responsible for advancing Connecticut’s offshore wind industry\, growing the State’s economic development opportunities\, recruiting new businesses\, and training workforce for clean energy jobs. We will learn how offshore wind energy is advancing from the State of Connecticut\, seCTer (Southeastern Connecticut Enterprise Region). seCTer is a finalist in Economic Development Administration (EDA)’s Build Back Better Regional Challenge! leading a coalition of economic development partners who are competing for up to $100 million to supercharge seCTer’s economy and the local\, regional\, and global offshore wind energy supply chain. \nYou will learn about lessons learned on legal strategies and best practices for consultants to build consensus with project stakeholders for the approval of State of Connecticut environmental permits based on experience with offshore wind projects. This short course will help to reduce the risks of permit delays with detailed record keeping practices\, and help you meet your project schedules. Strategies for permitting specialists to effectively defend permits from appeals will be reviewed. \nWe will report on progress on the Revolution Wind and Park City Wind farm and port developments. Revolution Wind\, a joint project between Ørsted and Eversource Energy\, includes 304 MW of renewable electricity for Connecticut and an estimated $77.5 million in port improvements in New London. Hear from the Connecticut Port Authority (CPA)\, the state’s quasi-public agency responsible for promoting and coordinating the development of the state’s ports and maritime industry and joint venture partners Ørsted and Eversource who are redeveloping the State Pier into a state-of-the-art port facility open for business in 2023.

SUMMARY:NECA 2022 Fuels Conference
DESCRIPTION:Energy Security\, Price\, and Decarbonization: Is This the Winter of Our Discontent?\nWhen Mark Twain reportedly observed that history does not repeat itself\, but if often rhymes\, he may have been speaking about the state of the fuel supply situation in New England.  Recent events and price shocks have drawn renewed attention to the uncomfortable reality facing the region: it is energy-insecure during extreme weather conditions.  This vulnerability is a feature\, not a bug\, as these challenges have been the subject of numerous stakeholder discussions\, meetings and proposals for over a decade.  Now\, with Winter 2022-2023 only a few months away\, and with several of the region’s states pursuing ambitious decarbonization goals\, curtailments and service interruptions are no longer remote possibilities.  Join NECA on Thursday\, September 29\, 2022\, at the NECA Fuels Conference\, for an informative and engaging discussion with industry experts and representatives for their perspectives on the current situation\, and what it means for the region for both this winter\, as well as for the future.

SUMMARY:ISO New England Future Grid Reliability Phase 1 Public Meeting
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, October 21 at 10:00 a.m.\, ISO New England will host a virtual briefing to present its recently released 2021 Economic Study: Future Grid Reliability Phase 1. The study evaluates how a 2040 grid could perform with a shift to largely renewable resources and a substantial increase in demand associated with electrification of the heating and transportation sectors. \nThe briefing is intended to make the findings of this report available to any interested members of the public. The session will be recorded and posted after the event for the convenience of those who cannot join on the date of the briefing. Please see instructions below on how to register and obtain information to access the virtual meeting. The audience will have opportunities to submit questions via chat during the virtual session. \nIn addition\, a document summarizing the findings of the study was recently posted to the ISO website. \nBackground \nThe study investigates several potential scenarios for a future grid\, developed by stakeholders. The resulting analysis produced takeaways in the areas of energy adequacy\, resource and demand flexibility\, and resource mix diversity that may help inform decision making as the region continues to move towards a transformed grid. The briefing\, held via WebEx\, is free and open to the general public. Registration is required to obtain the information needed to log into the webinar. \nThe final report\, 2021 Economic Study: Future Grid Reliability is available on the ISO’s website and a short summary is available on the ISO’s Newswire. A summary document is also available. \nIn 2020\, regional stakeholders requested the study to assess and discuss the future state of the regional power system in light of current state energy and environmental policies. Beginning in April 2020 and culminating in March 2021\, the ISO met regularly with state and industry stakeholders to discuss and define a scope of work for the initiative. \nThe 2021 Economic Study: Future Grid Reliability evaluates the operational and reliability challenges of a future grid where supply resources are largely renewable and demand has increased substantially due to electrification of the heating and transportation sectors. \nThe October 21 briefing will highlight the findings of the study\, including the operational and reliability challenges that were identified and will need to be addressed in the future grid\, and possible ways to meet those needs. \nRegistration \nTo register for the briefing\, please visit ISO-TEN\, the online registration site for the ISO New England Training and Events Network. Information to access the webinar will be sent to those who register through ISO-TEN. If you are new to ISO-TEN\, you will need to click the button to Register for an Account.
