SUMMARY:Bringing Offshore Wind to Market
DESCRIPTION:At the OurEnergyPolicy event in December 2019\, panelists discussed “New York’s Emerging Offshore Wind Market”. In the ensuing 18 months\, momentum has gathered behind proposed projects up and down the Atlantic Coast (including the Vineyard Wind project\, which has received its key federal approval). Almost 8GW of offshore projects already have been awarded under State contracts and more are in the pipeline. The Biden administration and certain state governments have recently announced efforts to open lease areas off the West Coast and the Gulf Coast along with the expansion of the lease areas in the Northeast. While siting and permitting matters remain as major hurdles that projects need to clear (especially for projects off the California Coast)\, the industry is increasingly focusing on the supply\, logistics\, installation\, servicing\, financing\, and associated economics that need to be tackled in order to bring projects to market. Supply and services contracts are moving forward for equipment and services such as turbines and maritime services. This conversation will discuss the opportunities and challenges that are unique to bringing offshore wind projects to market in the Northeast in the near term and other coastal areas in the medium term. \nOpening Remarks By: Congressman Jerry McNerney (D-CA-9) \nFeaturing: Samantha Buechner Director\, Renewable Energy & Environmental Finance Wells Fargo João Metelo Clean Energy Leader and Chief Executive Former CEO\, Principle Power Will Roberts President Foss Maritime Company \nModerated By: Benjamin Huffman\, Partner SheppardMullin

SUMMARY:USGBC MD\, NCR\, & VA Present: Local Government Leadership Panel
DESCRIPTION:With many powerful competing interests operating at the national and state level\, the past decade has shown that innovation in green building policy has often occurred at the local level of government. Across DC\, Maryland and Virginia local policymakers\, advocates and building industry stakeholders are working more closely than ever to find creative\, economically viable solutions for meeting energy and climate goals in an equitable fashion. As more and more elected officials across the region make ambitious climate\, energy and equity commitments at the local level\, the challenges of funding programs and changing the status quo becomes more apparent. \nFrom green building codes and LEED incentives to benchmarking regulations to climate action plans\, DC\, Maryland and Virginia local governments have successfully implemented some of the most progressive sustainability agendas in the country. This leadership panel will feature local government leaders from cities and counties across DC-MD-VA region who will discuss their experiences in crafting and implementing some of the most aggressive building codes\, policies and incentive programs in the nation. \n\n\nSpeakers:\n\nAdriana Hochberg\, Assistant Chief Operating Officer\, Montgomery County\, MD Government\nCasey Studhalter\, Program Analyst\, DC department of Energy and Environment\nLouisa Rettew\, Project Engineer\, Baltimore County\nNell Boyle\, Sustainability/Outreach Coordinator\, City of Roanoke\, VA\nModerator: Cliff Majersik\, Senior Advisor\, Policy and Programs\, Institute for Market Transformation

SUMMARY:Powered from Above: A Solstice Seminar for Congregations in Montgomery County
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, June 21st at noon \nSince the fall day twelve years ago when a young priest climbed up to the roof of St. Alban’s Episcopal Church to bless their solar panels\, “our newest stained-glass windows\,” while the choir sang from the parking lot below\, over a hundred faith communities in our region have taken climate action by shifting their sanctuaries to solar power. Now\, Montgomery County Green Bank is offering a new solar financing product that makes it easier for solar developers to arrange no-money-down solar projects for Montgomery County congregations and organizations. Since the program’s launch in February\, the Green Bank has been working with a half dozen faith-based institutions to explore financing solar projects with no out-of-pocket cost to them. \nAt noon on the longest day of the year\, join Interfaith Power & Light and the Montgomery County Faith Alliance for Climate Solutions (MCFACS) to explore what the power of sunlight could do for your community: we’ll learn about solar financing for non-profits\, hear testimonials from congregations that are powering their buildings with energy “from above\,” and receive an invitation from the Montgomery County Green Bank to explore or re-explore a fully financed solar project for our own buildings. Please invite the financial and operations decision-makers from your congregations to join us\, too! \nRegister at the link below: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcuce2przsiHdTvvL6yE218vawQTMLQerxQ

SUMMARY:DC EcoWomen :June 2021 EcoHour
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, June 15th at 6:30pm for DC EcoWomen’s signature EcoHour for a conversation with Carolina Powell\, Primate Keeper at Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Mentorship Director and founding member of the Association of Minority Zoo and Aquarium Professionals (AMZAP).\n\nABOUT CAROLINA:  \nCarolina Powell is a first-generation college graduate born to Colombian parents and raised by her single mother. Growing up\, Carolina witnessed the hardships her mother went through and was always given the same advice: “Go to school so you can be successful and don’t have to endure what we are now.” \nBecause of this\, she was conflicted when she decided to change her career aspirations from veterinarian to zookeeper. The journey to becoming a keeper was difficult and often filled with doubt. However\, she was given her “big break” when she was offered a position at the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore in 2014. \nIncluding her time as an intern\, Carolina has been in the zoological field for eight years and currently works as a primate keeper at Smithsonian’s National Zoo. Throughout her career\, she has worked with a variety of species ranging from goats and cows to lemurs\, chimpanzees\, leopards\, gorillas\, and orangutans. As a keeper\, Carolina is in charge of record keeping\, medicating\, training\, and basic animal husbandry such as feeding and cleaning.  One of her favorite parts of her job is getting to train animals to participate in their own medical care. Behaviors like voluntary injections\, ultrasound\, and blood draws are all extremely important to monitoring the health of these animals. \nCarolina is also passionate about helping individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups get into the field and was thrilled when she was approached by curator\, Craig Saffoe\, to join him as a founding member of the Association of Minority Zoo and Aquarium Professionals (AMZAP). Since its inception\, Carolina has taken on the role of Director of Mentorship\, where she focuses on helping aspiring zoo and aquarium professionals get matched with mentors currently within the field. \n*Please note: DC EcoWomen EcoHours are open to women and those who identify as women\, including members of the LGBTQ community and gender fluid individuals.

SUMMARY:Women in Green Power Breakfast: Reflections on Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars for May 26th for annual U.S. Green Building Council’s\, National Capital Region’s Women in Green (Virtual) Power Breakfast. This yearly influential event now enjoying its National ten-year anniversary\, has never had more importance than it does this year\, a year that has tested women’s resilience like never before. Hear from women who have navigated the troubled waters brought on by the pandemic and listen to stories of their steadfastness and strength. \nUSGBC’s own survey on women in the workforce revealed 62% of respondents agreed that the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting workplace equity. The United Nations also cautioned that COVID-19 could undo decades of meaningful progress around gender equality.
