Join the summit to explore how the U.S. is positioning itself in a complicated energy future. Explore any progress made on the ground with the infrastructure and climate packages intended to move the U.S. to a renewable energy economy through electric vehicle adoption, a Just Transition to support oil and gas workers moving into green sector jobs and environmental justice proposals. We will also dig into clean energy technologies and innovation, including wind energy, solar power, nuclear, and battery technologies, the electrification of the transportation sector, while acknowledging the larger political forces that will shape any policy wins. Finally, we’ll explore the latest developments in Washington in the battle to implement and enforce ESG standards to combat climate change.
