SUMMARY:Energy Scenario Planning for Cities & Counties Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Data-driven decision-making can empower communities to invest resources in the most impactful and cost-efficient way. With the passage of the bipartisan infrastructure law\, new resources are now becoming available for local governments\, which makes this an especially important time for communities to be setting clean energy goals and planning how to use resources effectively. This workshop will highlight two complementary tools. The SLOPE Scenario Planner allows users to build\, view\, and compare energy scenarios through the year 2050. \nJoin us in this NREL workshop to discover: \n\nwhat will it mean for your community as the grid is decarbonized\,\nas more drivers choose electric vehicles\,\nas building heating is electrified\,\nand energy loads become more flexible?\n\nYou will explore energy consumption\, carbon emissions and system costs for your county during the live demo. Workshop participants will also gain hands-on experience with the SLOPE Data Viewer\, which can augment the Scenario Planner discussion with data about solar technical potential\, energy efficiency\, transportation and more. \nCM 1.25\n \nRegister Here
