Energy storage will play a key role in the transition to renewable energy, and it’s important that its benefits are accessible to all. Underserved communities are historically the most negatively impacted by severe weather events associated with climate change and air pollution from fossil-fuel burning plants disproportionately located in these communities. Without affordable and accessible…
Read More & RegisterAn increase in severe weather events, combined with aging energy infrastructure, is resulting in more frequent and longer duration power outages. Low-income communities, communities of color, and medically vulnerable populations are especially vulnerable. Solar paired with battery storage (solar+storage) can provide emergency backup power support to the community service providers and first responders serving these communities.…

How can households balance the economic benefits of using their battery to lower energy bills and the resilience benefits of stored energy for backup power? This CEG webinar covers Berkeley Lab’s study that explores this question.
This webinar highlighted two impressive and impactful state clean energy programs that were purposefully designed so that low- and moderate-income households can not only participate in clean energy programs, but also benefit financially from them.
The PEAK Coalition has published a new report highlighting ways to address New York City’s growing electricity demand and accelerate peaker plant retirement. In this CEG webinar, report authors provided an overview of how demand management could reduce New York’s reliance on fossil peaker plants.
Sodium-ion batteries have emerged as a likely substitute for stationary battery applications, both on the grid and behind the meter. This ESTAP webinar explored the potential applications, benefits, and challenges for sodium-ion batteries.
This webinar dove into a pioneering multifamily solar project in Jackson, Mississippi that implemented an innovative technology solution to provide direct benefits to apartment residents who have historically been left out of the clean energy transition.
The Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technology Office (SETO) launched the Equitable Solar Communities of Practice program in November 2023 to support the expansion of equitable benefits in solar adoption. The program consists of five communities of practice that work to identify resource gaps, support the development and dissemination of best practices and resources,…
CEG contracted with the Applied Economics Clinic to provide an analysis of the equity provisions in three Massachusetts energy storage programs. In this webinar, report authors discussed their findings and shared examples from other states with model equity provisions that could be adapted and applied to the statewide programs in Massachusetts.
Speakers from Yale University, Connecticut Green Bank, Operation Fuel, Clean Energy Group, and The Towers discussed a new report describing the pressing need for climate smart technology in affordable housing in Connecticut, to ensure the safety and well-being of residents who rely on home medical devices.
This CESA webinar covers a series of reports released by CESA and MIT in August based on a nationwide survey of community-based organizations. Report authors review key findings and lessons learned from the studies.
In this CESA webinar, guest speakers from the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center presented their award-winning Accelerating Clean Transportation (ACT) School Bus Program. The program provides technical planning services and financial support to Massachusetts public school districts and/or transportation providers to complete successful electric school bus deployment projects.
