SUMMARY:WEST's Be a Better Ally
DESCRIPTION:As we continue to prioritize diversity and inclusion in the workplace\, the term allyship is tossed around a lot. But what does it actually mean (and not mean) to be an ally? Many well-intentioned professionals would like to be allies but they’re not sure how. They have concerns about overstepping or misreading situational cues. Or\, they feel uncomfortable having conversations about what support looks like to others. \nRegardless of your background\, role or level\, you can be an ally. In this interactive discussion\, you’ll learn how. WEST will: \n\nDebunk some of the myths around allyship\nExplore common challenging scenarios in breakout sessions and strategize how to show up as an ally in each one\nDiscuss key strategies and action steps to serve as allies to others.

SUMMARY:NECA's Carbon Capture Event
DESCRIPTION:The goal of decarbonization is to reduce or eliminate carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions\, as well as other pollutants\, from the energy grid. However\, that will not occur overnight. Renewable energy sources such as hydrogen\, wind\, and solar are still a long way away from being the predominant source of energy. Whether you like it or not\, our economy will continue to rely on fossil fuels as it builds towards a greener future. So\, what do we do in the meantime? \nCarbon capture offers the potential to dramatically reduce CO2 emissions from large stationary sources. It comes in many practical forms too. CO2 pipelines\, geologic sequestration wells\, direct air capture\, forestry\, and even aquaculture are just some of the methods used to sequester CO2. This market potential has not gone unnoticed. The 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill earmarked billions of dollars towards the development of carbon capture projects. Exxon Mobil Corp.\, Royal Dutch Shell\, and TC Energy have all announced major carbon capture projects as part of a drive to reduce both their own and their customers’ emissions. Exxon is even forecasting that carbon capture could become a $2 trillion market by 2040. However\, some critics think that carbon capture is too expensive. Others think that is just a way for fossil fuel companies to keep operating without actually changing the way they do business. Can carbon capture deliver on its potential? Can it help us achieve our emissions reduction goals? \nThe Fuels Committee of the Northeast Energy and Commerce Association invite you to attend a special Winter Wednesday Webinar that will explore this topic. Hear from our panel of carbon capture industry experts about the latest developments and technology being implemented around the world.

SUMMARY:WEST's Career Possibilities Panel & Speed Networking: R&D Clinical\, Regulatory\, Patient Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:In the world of business\, careers are no longer linear or predictable. What was once a clearly sign-posted path as you progressed through milestones\, a career road map is now circuitous presenting new challenges and opportunities at every bend. Life-long careers in one sector or one company are becoming a rarity as new technologies and shifting social norms disrupt traditional careers. Both employers and employees are seeking more diversity of experience\, lifestyle flexibility and alternative paths. \nThis panel is designed to help you think about your career path and the different options that are open to you. The panel will have an informational interview type feel with panelists sharing their career paths\, a look at what their job entails\, transferrable skills for those looking to make a change\, tips for uncovering opportunities\, advice for others\, and how to make brave leaps.

SUMMARY:Greentown Labs' Contractors of Color in Clean Energy: Conversations and Connections
DESCRIPTION:People of color own more than 17% of US businesses but are awarded less than 5% of total contract dollars from Fortune 100 companies. Corporations and government agencies increasingly embrace supplier diversity\, but diverse businesses still receive an appalling lack of contracts. How can we increase supplier diversity within clean energy to close the racial wealth gap and shape the larger economy? \nPlease join Browning the Green Space to discuss contractor support\, supplier diversity\, and energy efficiency for communities of color in Massachusetts and beyond. Through panel discussions with leaders from utility suppliers and energy service contractors\, we will explore how to build and strengthen a diverse contractor pipeline and ensure a fair distribution of contracts for both established and nascent clean energy solutions. Browning the Green Space will also introduce their new Contractor Accelerator program and welcome our Wells Fargo NREL Innovation Incubator (IN2) award partners to the community.
