SUMMARY:The Future of Siting and Permitting
DESCRIPTION:Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents new opportunities to radically accelerate the speed at which we can build infrastructure by bringing new capabilities to complex review\, siting\, and permitting processes. Siting and permitting challenges can significantly reduce deployment potential. For example\, the National Renewable Energy Lab found that geothermal energy deployment is reduced by as much as 50% because of permitting challenges. AI tools can accelerate this process by enabling developers\, environmental reviewers\, and communities to improve project design\, bring new efficiencies to time-consuming processes\, increase public engagement\, accelerate deployment of energy technologies\, and enable new research opportunities.  \nJoin this session to explore:  \n\nWhat’s the future of siting and permitting look like for energy projects\, and how is and can AI play a role?\nWhat are the limits of AI for siting and permitting?\nWhat near term actions we can take today to accelerate advanced sitting and permitting technology deployment?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nKendra Kostek\nSenior Advisor for Siting and Permitting\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nLeila Banijamali\nCo-Founder and CEO\, Symbium Corp. \n\n\n \nJames McWalter\nFounder and CEO\, Paces \n\n\n\n\n \nEvelyn Butler\nVP of Technical Services\, Solar Energy Industries Association

SUMMARY:Labor Partnerships in Construction: De-Risk Your Project
DESCRIPTION:Since 2020\, the private sector has announced over $980 billion in investments to construct new manufacturing and clean energy developments in the US\, catalyzed by over $630 billion in public support through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA)\, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)\, and the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and Science Act. In this competitive market\, hear from Owners\, EPCs\, and Labor on how to de-risk your Construction Project: \nJoin this session to explore: \n\nHow to ensure access to skilled labor in a competitive market?\nHow to encourage the recruitment of local workers on your project and how that aligns with your Community Benefits Plan?\nWhat are some strategies to meet the Prevailing Wage and Apprenticeship Requirements for IRA Tax Incentives?\n\n  \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nAmy A.

SUMMARY:Applying AI to Enable Clean Energy Interconnection
DESCRIPTION:Before renewable generation can be connected to the grid\, these supply resources must undergo a series of grid impact studies before they can be built. This process – called the interconnection queue — has become a key bottleneck in the deployment of clean energy. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to address these long-standing delays to support faster interconnection of much needed clean generation. \nJoin this conversation with industry leaders on the forefront of AI to discuss: \n\nHow can AI be leveraged to accelerate clean energy deployments and interconnection?\nHow is AI already being used today\, and what have the lessons learned been from these deployments?\nWhat does it take to broadly apply AI across the industry to support rapid interconnection to keep up with rising demand growth?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nDr. Kelly Sanders\nAssistant Director for Energy Systems Innovation\, White House Office of Science and Technology Policy \n\n\n \nDavid Bromberg\nCEO and Co-founder\, Pearl Street Technologies \n\n\n \nAram Shumavon\nFounder and CEO\, Kevala \n\n\n\n\n \nBrian Fitzsimons\nFounder & CEO\, GridUnity

SUMMARY:Sourcing the Pieces for the T&D Puzzle
DESCRIPTION:Where will the components we need to maintain\, repair\, and build out our transmission and distribution systems come from- and will we have enough to keep the lights on and make progress on clean energy deployment? Although a robust and resilient grid is critical for maintaining a thriving energy sector\, it has often been taken for granted\, and its maintenance and repair has often been deferred. At the same time as the United States returns to a period of substantial demand growth\, we are also facing substantial grid replacement and upgrades needs to replace aging infrastructure and harden transmission and distribution against increasingly frequent and severe climate risks. Supply chain constraints have been a choke point for deploying new transmission & distribution\, and for repairing or replacing existing systems. \nJoin this session to explore: \n\nWhat is behind these bottlenecks? Supply chain delays\, market volatility for raw materials\, limited and highly concentrated US supplier capacity\, labor availability\, limited investment in production capacity\, or all of the above?\nWhat steps are the DOE\, utilities and other private sector leaders taking to address these challenges?\nWhat is it going to take to fully unlock grid supply chains?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nTricia Breeger\nPresident & CEO\, Mitsubishi Electric Power Products\, Inc. \n\n\n \nJustin Badlam\nSenior Advisor for Strategy and Industrial Policy\, Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nStephanie Crawford\nRegulatory Affairs Director\, National Rural Electric Cooperative Association \n\n\n\n\n \nDr. Karen Wayland\nCEO\, GridWise Alliance \n\n\n \nMichael Skelly\nFounder and CEO\, Grid United

SUMMARY:Building a Resilient American Battery Supply Chain 
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Energy\, led by the Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains (MESC) and the Loans Program Office (LPO)\, is catalyzing the development of America’s batteries supply chain. The combination of DOE investments and supportive policy from the Inflation Reduction Act has led to $180 billion of investment in the EV and Battery supply chain since 2001\, creating 150\,000 manufacturing jobs in the process. \nJoin this session to explore: \n\nHow are these actions part of America’s long term effort to reduce global reliance on Chinese supply chains?\nWhat challenges lie ahead towards continued expansion of EV and battery supply chains?\nHow is the DOE building new tools and capabilities to meet them\, and how can the private sector be a partner in this national effort?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nAndrew Alcorta\nSenior Advisor on Industrial Policy\, Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nRobert Kang\nCo-Founder and CEO\, Blue Whale Materials \n\n\n \nJamie Liang\nPresident and CEO\, TerraVolta Resources \n\n\n\n\n \nVivas Kumar\nCEO and Co-founder\, Mitra Chem \n\n\n \nScott Himmelberger\nDirector\, Decarbonization Partners (BlackRock and Temasek)

SUMMARY:USA Sourced Critical Materials: From Byproducts to Coproducts
DESCRIPTION:DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) has committed an estimated $176 million since January 2021 for projects that support critical minerals and materials exploration\, resource identification\, production\, and processing in traditional mining and fossil fuel-producing communities across the country. Initial estimates suggest that unconventional and secondary sources could provide significant amounts of the rare earth elements and other critical minerals and materials. For example\, wastes and byproducts from known fossil fuel reserves and other industries nation-wide currently contain more than 10 million tons of rare earth elements\, which is equivalent to more than a 300-year supply at the current rate of U.S. consumption. Energy and mining waste streams also need to be remediated\, so there is an opportunity to recover critical minerals during reclamation which puts the critical material recovery on a firm project timeline. \nJoin this session to: \n\nHear from project developers of unconventional and secondary sources of rare earth elements (REEs) and lithium (Li) in the U.S.\nDiscuss complementary DOE funding programs and EPA\, DEP remediation requirements\nHighlight opportunities for investors\, developers and other partners.\n\nDownload and View the Session/Presentation Deck\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nKwasi Ampofo\nHead of Metals and Mining\, BloombergNEF \n\n\n \nTodd Beers\nCOO\, Winner Water Services Inc. \n\n\n \nRemi Loiseau\nU.S. Lithium Manager\, ExxonMobil Low Carbon Solutions \n\n\n\n\n \nDr. Barbara Arnold\nChair and Professor of Practice in Mining Engineering\, Penn State \n\n\n \nRyan Peay\nDeputy Assistant Secretary for Resource Sustainability\, Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management\, U.S. Department of Energy
