Upcoming
This webinar will dive into a pioneering multifamily solar project in Jackson, Mississippi that implemented an innovative technology solution to provide direct benefits to apartment residents who have historically been left out of the clean energy transition.
In this DOE-organized webinar, CESA Executive Director Warren Leon and Senior Project Director for Solar and Offshore Wind Vero Bourg-Meyer will discuss best practices for meaningful household savings from solar, gaps in the literature on solar savings, and what will be needed to scale up best practices.
Sodium-ion batteries have emerged as a likely substitute for stationary battery applications, both on the grid and behind the meter. This ESTAP webinar will explore the potential applications, benefits, and challenges for sodium-ion batteries.
The PEAK Coalition has published a new report highlighting ways to address New York City’s growing electricity demand and accelerate peaker plant retirement. In this CEG webinar, report authors will provide an overview of how demand management could reduce New York’s reliance on fossil peaker plants.
This webinar will highlight two impressive and impactful state clean energy programs that were purposefully designed so that low- and moderate-income households can not only participate in clean energy programs, but also benefit financially from them.
How can households balance the economic benefits of using their battery to lower energy bills and the resilience benefits of stored energy for backup power? This CEG webinar covers Berkeley Lab’s study that explores this question.
Recent
Clean Energy Group and Applied Economics Clinic analyzed the equity provisions in three Massachusetts energy storage programs: ConnectedSolutions, the SMART solar program, and the Clean Peak Standard. This webinar presented the results of that analysis.
Speakers from Yale University, Connecticut Green Bank, Operation Fuel, Clean Energy Group, and The Towers discussed a new report describing the pressing need for climate smart technology in affordable housing in Connecticut, to ensure the safety and well-being of residents who rely on home medical devices.
This CESA webinar covers a series of reports released by CESA and MIT in August based on a nationwide survey of community-based organizations. Report authors review key findings and lessons learned from the studies.
In this CESA webinar, guest speakers from the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center presented their award-winning Accelerating Clean Transportation (ACT) School Bus Program. The program provides technical planning services and financial support to Massachusetts public school districts and/or transportation providers to complete successful electric school bus deployment projects.
In this CESA webinar, Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe’s Eugene Strowbridge provided an overview of a forthcoming case study exploring the Tribal-State relationship through the experiences of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, which began developing its Sustainability Program in 2014.
In this webinar, speakers from Clean Energy Group will answer some of the most commonly asked questions about the design, installation, and economics of solar and battery storage for homes, businesses, and community facilities.
Manufactured homes (aka “mobile” homes) are an important form of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income (LMI) households. But they can often be energy-inefficient and difficult to weatherize, resulting in high energy bills and energy burdens. In this CESA webinar, speakers discussed Berkeley Lab’s report that proposes combining community solar subscriptions with air-source heat pump installations and managing bill credits to reduce winter heating bills.
In this webinar, panelists discussed the municipal planning process for battery storage projects in Massachusetts. Experts provided an overview of the current landscape for energy storage permitting and siting. They discussed sizing and zoning considerations, environmental justice and equity considerations for siting energy storage projects, and best practices for municipalities.
CESA will host an interactive meeting with researchers from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), open exclusively to state and federal employees. In this meeting, NREL researchers will showcase preliminary analysis demonstrating the impact of varying policy design choices on future state energy portfolios, followed by a moderated discussion.
The Offshore Wind and Equity National Workshop is a 3-day virtual event that will bring together representatives from state agencies and community-based organizations (CBOs) to identify how state agencies can incorporate principles of Equity and Justice into the offshore wind planning and development process.
