SUMMARY:Greening the Golden State (in Sacramento)
DESCRIPTION:California on the Move\n\n\n \n“We have a cap-and-trade system\, which is a very efficient way to reducing greenhouse gases. We have a zero-emission vehicle mandate. We have efficiency standards for our buildings\, for our appliances. California is showing that dealing with climate is good for the economy — not bad. It’s a culture that’s on the move — not pulling up the drawbridge out of fear and economic insecurity.” – California Governor Jerry Brown \n\nGreening the Golden State\nAs a result of its legislative and financial commitment to emission reduction and environmental stewardship\, the Golden State has emerged as a national and international leader in sustainable policy\, practice and technology. The annual Green California Summit was established eleven years ago to support these efforts and to provide information\, education and resources to the public and private sector professionals who create\, manage and execute green projects and programs. \nThe 2018 Summit comes to the Sacramento Convention Center on April 9-10\, at a time when changing priorities at the federal level have heightened the importance of California’s efforts. The Summit offers an unique opportunity for stakeholders to connect\, exchange ideas and attend education sessions that highlight best practices and effective strategies. \nKeynote and Expo Registration is Free\nEntrance to the Green Solutions Expo on April 9-10\, the keynote session and the annual Leadership Awards reception is free. Commissioner Andrew McAllister (left) of the California Energy Commission will speak in the opening session. Bio here. \nThe Expo allows you to discover scores of green products and services all in one place. Find out what’s new and get an intensive\, hands-on education that’s not available anywhere else. The Expo also offers you a chance to look at the latest clean vehicles\, EV charging solutions and more. Click here to start your registration. \nConcurrent Education Sessions on April 9-10 will cover a range of topics. (More here.) The Summit will also include special Technology Showcase education sessions that are open to all (details to be announced). \nIf you are a member of a professional organization that has an interest in sustainability\, you may want to consider taking part in our Partners in Learning program. Meet onsite at the Summit\, a dynamic atmosphere that is designed to inspire\, inform and encourage interaction. \nWe will provide free meeting space as well as substantial registration discounts for your group members. Discounted rates may be available at area hotels to accommodate out of town attendees. If your organization is interested in holding a scheduled meeting at the Summit please call 626.577.5700. \n\n“We are not going to allow one election to reverse generations of progress – at the height of our historic diversity\, scientific advancement\, economic output\, and sense of global responsibility.  Equity and environmental justice are now hardwired into all of our climate policies in an unprecedented way.”\n– Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de León at the Vatican Pontifical Academy of Sciences\, November 3\, 2017 \n\n\nWho Should Attend?\nAgency Secretaries\nCommissioners\nDepartment Directors\nChiefs\, Administration Division\nFacility Managers\nEnergy Managers\nSustainability Managers\nLegislators\nBoard Members\nSuperintendents\nChancellors\nChief Business Officers\nEngineers\nTransportation Specialists\nChief Financial Officers\nEducators\nBuilding Officials\nCapital Outlay Managers\nBuilding Managers\nProcurement Managers\nReal Estate Managers\nBudget Officers\nPurchasers\nRecycling Professionals\nWaste Management Professionals\nFleet Managers\nCommercial Real Estate Professionals\nArchitects and Designers\nConstruction Professionals\nAnyone with green program responsibilities! \nQUESTIONS?

SUMMARY:Luskin Center for Innovation: How Wildfire Will Shape Our Future
DESCRIPTION:Add to iCal: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\nJoin the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation in welcoming Edward Struzik to discuss his book Firestorm.\nThe evening event will include a reception\, presentation\, panel discussion\, author Q&A\, and book signing. \nFeatured speaker: Edward Struzik \nPanelists: Douglas Bevington\, Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation (moderator); Beth Burnham\, North Topanga Canyon Fire Safe Council; Chad Hanson\, The John Muir Project ; Alex Hall\, UCLA; Chief Ralph Terrazas\, City of Los Angeles \nABOUT THE BOOK\n2017 was marked as the deadliest and most destructive year of wildfires ever in California. Over 9\,000 fires burned throughout the state\, including 950 wildfires in Northern California in October alone. With higher temperatures\, stronger winds\, and drier lands across the globe it shouldn’t be a surprise that Governor Jerry Brown commented on the six wildfires that ravaged Southern California as the “new normal.” \nIn Firestorm\, journalist Edward Struzik visits scorched earth from Alaska to Maine\, and introduces the scientists\, firefighters\, and resource managers making the case for a radically different approach to managing wildfire in the 21st century. Wildfires can no longer be treated as avoidable events because the risk and dangers are becoming too great and costly. Struzik weaves a heart-pumping narrative of science\, economics\, politics\, and human determination and points to the ways that we\, and the wilder inhabitants of the forests around our cities and towns\, might yet flourish in an age of growing megafires. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nEdward Struzik has been writing about scientific and environmental issues for more than 30 years. A fellow at the Institute for Energy and Environmental Policy at Queen’s University in Kingston\, Canada\, his numerous accolades include the prestigious Atkinson Fellowship in Public Policy and the Sir Sandford Fleming Medal\, awarded for outstanding contributions to the understanding of science. In 1996 he was awarded the Knight Science Journalism Fellowship and spent a year at Harvard and MIT researching environment\, evolutionary biology\, and politics with E.O. Wilson\, Stephen Jay Gould and Richard Lewontin. His 2015 book\, Future Arctic\, focuses on the effects of climate change in the Canadian Arctic and the impacts they will have on the rest of the world. His other books include Arctic Icons\, The Big Thaw\, and Northwest Passage. He is an active speaker and lecturer\, and his work as a regular contributor to Yale Environment 360 covers topics such as the effects of climate change and fossil fuel extraction on northern ecosystems and their inhabitants. He is on the Board of Directors for the Canadian Arctic Resources Committee\, a citizens’ organization dedicated to the long-term environmental and social well-being of northern Canada and its peoples. He lives in Edmonton\, Alberta.

SUMMARY:Young Professionals in Energy: Renewables Go Virtual: Virtual Power Purchase Agreements & Virtual Power Plants
DESCRIPTION:Renewables Go Virtual: \nVirtual Power Purchase Agreements & Virtual Power Plants \nHosted by \nEarlier this month\, Fifth Third Bancorp announced that it has become the first Fortune 500 company and first bank to sign a power purchase agreement to achieve 100% renewable power through a single project. Furthermore\, Fifth Third becomes the first publicly-traded company to commit to purchase 100% renewable energy through solar power alone.  Advanced energy storage companies around the world are also deploying distributed\, dispatchable battery assets across regions\, including Tesla’s most recent residential deployment of Powerwalls in Australia. \nThe event will showcase Virtual (or off-site) Power purchase agreements (PPAs)\, which the industrial\, commercial\, and public sectors are taking advantage of to support development of new clean energy while meeting sustainability goals – such as carbon neutrality or obtaining 100% of their energy from renewable sources\, and reaping financial benefits at the same time.  We will also be discussing Virtual Power Plants (VPPs).  Most lithium-ion battery deployments today come in the form of giant\, centralized battery plants. A virtual power plant is comprised of multiple (hundreds or even thousands) of batteries distributed within a grid (at businesses\, schools\, or even homes)\, but  operate just like a one big system — charging up when demand and electricity rates are low and discharging when demand and prices are high. \nPanelists: \n\nGarrett Sprague\, Business Development Associate\, Customer First Renewables (CFR)\nNurit Katz\, Chief Sustainability Officer and Executive Officer of Facilities Management\, UCLA\nMark Tucker\, Business Development Director\, Public Sector\, Stem Inc\n\n  \nAgenda: \n5:30pm – Check-in and networking with appetizers and beer/wine \n6:30pm – Welcome Remarks \nIntroduction by GLUMAC \nPanel discussion moderated by Yair Crane\, Co-Chair YPE LA \n7:45pm – Q&A \n8:00pm – Networking \n8:30pm – Adjourn \n  \nLocation: \nGLUMAC Los Angeles \nAON Tower \n707 Wilshire Blvd. 23 rd Floor \nLos  Angeles\, CA 90017 \nRSVP is required\, no walk-ins\, due to building security requirements \nYoung Professionals in Energy (“YPE”) is a non-profit energy industry networking organization with over 15\,000 members worldwide (Tax ID 37-1540101). YPE LA events typically have 75-100 members that include a broader audience of LA professionals in the energy\, policy\, sustainability\, and clean technology fields\, including professionals from utilities\, professional engineers\, energy communications and policy experts\, project developers\, investors\, lawyers in the energy field\, venture capitalists\, solar companies\, as well as local and county officials.
