Bringing Offshore Wind to California: A Conversation With CA's CEC and CPUC

  • East Bay Community Energy 1999 Harrison Street Oakland, CA 94612 United States (map)

Young Professionals in Energy (YPE) SF Bay Area is hosting two energy policymakers for a conversation about the pathways and challenges to development of offshore wind energy in California.

Senate Bill 100 set a 2045 goal of powering all retail electricity sold in California and state agency electricity needs with renewable and zero-carbon resources. It requires the state to use programs under existing laws to achieve 100% zero-carbon electricity.

California Energy Commission (CEC) Chair David Hochschild joins California Public Utilities Comission (CPUC) Comissioner John Reynolds for a panel discussion on offshore wind development goals, permitting, grid integration, finance, legal consideration, and more. The discussion will be moderated by Jeff St. John from Canary Media and time will be allocated for audience Q&A.

This event is hosted and sponsored by East Bay Community Energy (EBCE) in Oakland, California.

After the event, stick around for a social hour with food and drink to connect with our panelists, participants, YPE, and EBCE.
