For several summers in a row, California has been plagued by unprecedented wildfires and associated power outages. As an alternative to diesel for energy back-up, some local governments have been planning for deployment of new, clean energy options, which can save money and improve resilience. This workshop will included presentations covering:
- Best practices in clean energy resilience planning (Kate Ringness, SmartBlock Consulting)
- Billions of dollars in related new federal and state funding (Angie Hacker, CivicWell)
- Project case studies
