SUMMARY:Our Energy Horizon: A Solar\, Storage\, Electric Vehicle\, & Transmission Event
DESCRIPTION:Join the Clean Energy Business Council and Kansas Advanced Power Alliance for an in-depth afternoon discussing the state’s energy future for utility-scale solar\, storage\, electric vehicle\, and transmission expansion. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP Today!\n\n\n\n\nThe Our Energy Horizon Forum will include a robust dialogue about our rapidly changing energy economy from clean energy experts\, policymakers\, and industry leaders. How will Kansas navigate the implementation of renewable technology\, specifically around utility-scale solar\, battery storage\, electric vehicles\, and transmission? What are the economic benefits of these technologies for the region? What’s happening to enable greater adoption of electric vehicles across the state? All of this and more in a dynamic conversation that looks at what’s happening and how Kansas can capture the benefits of these opportunities and embrace a changing energy future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMONDAY\, OCTOBER 25\, 2021 \n\n\n\n1:00-5:00 PM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNOTE: The event will follow general COVID-19 protocol\, including social distancing and masks. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\nLink to Speaker Bios\n\n\n\nDiscussion 1 – Moderated by Mark Walter\, Savion\n\n\n\nHow Utility-Scale Solar & Battery Storage Technologies Work \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nRobert Wright\, Burns & McDonald (Utility-Scale Solar) \n\n\n\nFrank Jakob\, Black & Veatch (Battery Storage) \n\n\n\nDiscussion 2 – Moderated by Jessica Lucas\, Clean Energy Business Council\n\n\n\nEconomic Benefits of Solar & Storage \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nJeremy Hill\, Wichita State University (Property Value Impacts) \n\n\n\nMichelle Milburn\, Stanion (Local Supply Chain Opportunities) \n\n\n\nIndustry Growth\, Jobs (Speaker TBA) \n\n\n\nDiscussion 3: Moderated by Josh Svaty\, Kansas Power Alliance\n\n\n\nSolar & Storage Implementation Considerations\n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nWilliam Wilkins\, NextEra Energy Resources (Land Use\, Environmental Impacts\, Decommissioning) \n\n\n\nLuke Hagedorn\, Polsinelli (Siting Regulations) \n\n\n\nKansas Supply Chain opportunities and Global Trade Impacts (Speaker TBA) \n\n\n\nDiscussion 4: Moderated by Kelly Gilbert\, Metropolitan Energy Center\n\n\n\nTransportation Electrification & Transmission\n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nJason Dake\, Orange EV (Heavy-Duty EVs) \n\n\n\nTami Alexander\, Central Kansas Clean Cities Coalition \n\n\n\nMark Augustine\, Triplett\, Inc. 3rd Party Charging Infrastructure   \n\n\n\nBrett Leopold\, ITC Transmission (Transmission as a Lynchpin) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterested in joining our sponsors\, Kansas Power Alliance\, Clean Energy Business Council\, Kansans for Wind Energy\, NextEra Energy\, Evergy\, Climate Action KC\, Savion\, Black & Veatch\, Burns & McDonnell\, Polsinelli\, Ecofin\, KS Dept. of Commerce\, ITC Holdings\, and Foley Power Solutions?

SUMMARY:RE-AMP Hosts: Blocking Beneficial Electrification
DESCRIPTION:Register Today\n\n\n\n\nIn the absence of state action\, attention has turned to opportunities at the local level for climate solutions. Across the Midwest\, various cities\, towns\, and counties are making clean energy commitments\, demanding more energy-efficient buildings\, and expanding transportation options. It’s threatening our opponents and they are fighting back against cities who want to move away from gas toward beneficial electrification. Advocates in Iowa\, Kansas\, and Ohio were taken by surprise with legislative bills that undermined the commitments local municipalities have made toward electrification by protecting gas under the guise of preserving consumer choice. In this Community Strategy Conversation\, we’ll hear from advocates in Kansas\, Iowa\, and Ohio on the impetus of legislation in these states\, what it means for current and future local climate action\, and the lessons that were learned. All three states have very similar stories\, and we expect similar legislation to pop up in other RE-AMP states. Get ahead of the curve by joining us on May 11th at 10a CT. \n\n\n\nPresenters: Dorothy Barnett (Climate + Energy Project) Kerri Johannsen (Iowa Environmental Council) Neil Waggoner (Sierra Club Ohio)
