The first seminar will introduce why transitioning to cleaner fuel sources is important and address the difficulties in doing so.  March 8th\, Public Utilities and the Electricity GridThe public utility market and electricity grid were designed for centralized\, reliable production. How will they adapt to address the challenges of renewable energy sources?  March 15th\, Transportation Fuels and InfrastructureTransportation accounts for about one third of U.S. energy consumption. We will look at the specific economic and technological barriers to transitioning to clean transportation.  April 5th\, Energy Efficiency\, Demand Response\, and Government IncentivesOften referred to as the “first fuel” in a clean energy economy\, energy efficiency and demand response programs lower energy usage and reduce emissions. Learn about the programs and technologies enabling increased efficiency.  April 12th\, Battery Technology & Energy Storage (NanoGraf CEO Samir Mayekar)Intermittency of renewable sources would be far less problematic with scalable energy storage technologies. Hear more from Samir Mayekar (Kellogg ‘13) on the latest trends in batteries and storage.  April 19th\, Renewable Energy Generation and FinancingWind and Solar are the fastest growing renewable energy sources in the U.S. Learn about what is driving their growth and the economics of clean energy.  April 27th\, The Future of EnergyWhat will the US and global energy ecosystems look like in the future? How close are we to that future? Hear some energy experts weigh in on their vision of how we will power society 100 years from now.\n\nMore Info: https://goo.gl/forms/4l1nWoOLDr62urE53\n\nRegister: https://goo.gl/forms/4l1nWoOLDr62urE53
