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:Insuring Energy Transformation: Overcoming the "Squid Games" Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Unlocking the capital investment needed to deploy clean energy technologies at scale and at pace requires identifying\, allocating\, and managing risk extremely adeptly. Experts from leading insurers\, reinsurers\, and managing general agents (MGAs) who specialize in managing risk come together on this panel to discuss innovative and collaborative approaches to derisking\, accelerating\, and reducing the overall cost of the energy transition. \nJoin this session to explore: \n\nHow are insurers partnering with developers of newer technologies to design solutions that meet the unique needs of the technology?\nWhat could insurers do to address common financing challenges inherent in newer technologies (e.g.\, lack of long-term performance/operating data) with what help from others in the capital stack?\nHow could insurance play a role in addressing the ‘Squid Games’ challenge we observe in financing newer technologies where no one wants to go first or second\, but everyone is eager to go eighth or ninth?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nDr. Vanessa Chan\nChief Commercialization Officer\, Director of the Office of Technology Transitions\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nRoman Beilhack\nHead of New & Green Technologies\, Munich Reinsurance \n\n\n \nTom Dickson\nCEO\, New Energy Risk \n\n\n\n\n \nPriscilla Pazmino-Vitela\nHead of Natural Resources – Americas\, Allianz Commercial
