The Next Four Years of DERs: Challenges and Opportunities
There’s a new administration in the White House and the mantra is “drill, baby, drill!”. Amidst the flood of executive orders, permit freezes, and the never ending uncertainty around the future of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), what will the next 4 years look like for distributed energy resources (DERs)?Join us for an insightful panel discussion with DER experts and strategists to talk about the challenges and opportunities for DERs and providers in the US.
Our conversation will center around key questions such as:
What are the potential impacts to the IRA of the new administration? (i.e. likelihood of tax credit repeal)
What aspects of renewable energy policy are unlikely to change? (e.g. geothermal)
What policy changes might we see for DER companies and project developers (esp. utility scale and capacity)?
How might DER owners and household consumers be impacted (e.g. subsidies and grants)?
What opportunities might arise in the next 4 years?
We are thrilled to be joined by 3 expert panelists:
Sarah Minczeski Delisle (Kalorama Strategies, ex-Swell Energy)
Susan Gladwin (Former Senior Advisor, Department of Energy LPO)
Tanatswa Mapondera (Senior Associate, Aligned Climate Capital)
Check-in begins at 5:15PM for a 5:30PM start.
