SUMMARY:CPES: 2025 Annual Fall Conference
DESCRIPTION:Engaging discussions led by distinguished panelists will take place throughout the day\, covering timely and relevant topics\, including:\n\nPanel 1: Forecasting New England’s Energy Future\nDiscover the key forces behind New England’s rising electricity demand and hear how industry leaders are working to ensure reliability\, resilience\, and growth. \n\nPanel 2: One Big “Beautiful” Bill: Navigating the New Energy Landscape\nWe will explore how the One Big Beautiful Bill\, alongside recent federal policy shifts and executive orders\, is reshaping the energy landscape. While recent policy shifts present challenges for wind and solar\, brings mixed outcomes for storage\, and creates opportunities for fuel cells\, panelists will discuss the broader implications for utilities\, developers\, and communities navigating this new policy environment. \nStreamlining Energy Permitting in the Northeast: Federal Shifts & Regional Innovations\nWith executive orders reshaping federal permitting\, from changes to WOTUS to new roadblocks for solar and wind\, energy projects face greater uncertainty than ever. In response\, Northeast states are re-engineering their own processes to cut delays and accelerate clean energy. Join us for a candid look at how federal policy and state innovation collide. \nNew England Natural Gas Outlook\nDiscussions focused on why continued natural gas investment remains critical for the region\, offering perspectives from local LDCs\, pipeline companies\, and power project developers.
