For both companies and communities, resilience has become essential in an increasingly turbulent global economy. In particular, energy resilience is a complex arena, demanding new strategies for strengthening supply chains, decarbonizing buildings, developing intelligent technologies, adopting electric vehicles, and working in dynamic energy markets. Designing resilient, sustainable energy systems is critical for organizations to thrive as the world accelerates toward a net-zero carbon emissions economy. Understanding how energy systems are evolving is equally essential for today’s professionals to become better leaders, energy advisors, decision-makers, investors, regulators, and educators. The Security and Sustainability Forum invites you to join the George Washington University Energy Resilience Certificate instructors for a 75-minute discussion introducing the program and how energy systems are changing to meet climate resilience and energy security challenges.
