The Renewable Energy Project: Webinar Series

Global Energy's Renewable Energy Project addresses fundamental and practical questions:

What's out there?.... What can get done?.... Are state standards achievable?.... What renewable resources will be most viable during the next 15 years?.... What's the right renewables mix?.... Can you depend on renewables availability?.... What are the implications for RTO markets and locational marginal pricing?.... What will it take to get financing?


Please join us for a new series of webinars that address these issues. Our webinars spare you the sales pitches, focusing instead on analysis and insights to help you make better decisions on key issues.
