Powering New England
Friday May 30, 2025 2:00pm - 3:00pm EDT
We’re all flicking on light switches, charging our phones and using heat to stay warm in the winter. That takes a lot of power — and New England is going to keep needing even more of it in the future. Join us for a deep dive into our regional energy landscape, where we’ll examine options for power sources, how to address the rising demand for energy, and who the key players are for building, operating and maintaining these critical infrastructures. We’ll also delve into how new and evolving regulatory frameworks could influence energy production, distribution and consumption for years to come.
