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:NEECE22: Demystifying Decarbonization
DESCRIPTION:28th Annual New England Energy Conference and Exposition (NEECE22): Demystifying Decarbonization\nThis year’s joint regional energy conference: The New England Energy Conference and Expo (NEECE22) will take place in person* in Worcester\, MA on May 17-18. NEECE22 will kick off the event with various networking options on May 17 and meet at the AC Hotel by Marriott on May 18 for a day filled with substantive panel discussions focused on demystifying the Northeast’s journey toward decarbonization. \nIn 2022\, we continue to see states in the Northeast push forward with their clean energy goals. NEECE22 will provide an update of where we are now and the lessons we can learn from the development of clean resources like solar\, offshore wind\, fuel cells and battery storage. However\, it’s not all smooth sailing\, and our panelists will explore the impact of future development of the transmission system in achieving the states’ goals. This must-attend conference will take a deeper dive into electric grid planning and the outlook of our gas distribution network. You will hear about the state of the industry with renewable fuels as we unpack buzzwords and concepts like green gas and hydrogen and explore the potential opportunities for cleaner power. We have designed panels to discuss the end-user perspective\, too. With advanced metering being key to a modern grid\, how can companies leverage big data to achieve better product options for customers? Whether you are new to the clean energy space or are looking to catch up with your energy industry colleagues\, this is the one conference in 2022 that you don’t want to miss!
