Upcoming Webinar, August 6: How Local Governments Can Buy Renewable Energy and Support Market Development

Many local governments are interested in renewable energy procurement as a way to directly expand clean energy use. To learn more, we hope you’ll join us for a webinar on Thursday, August 6 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. This webinar will include national experts, and community leaders to discuss renewable energy procurement strategies for local and regional governments.

The webinar will cover strategies local governments can consider to procure renewable energy and support renewable energy market development, including power purchase agreements (PPAs), virtual power purchase agreements (VPPAs), community solar, and more. This webinar will also cover how the regulatory landscape impacts the RE purchasing options available to a particular community and highlight case studies from local governments across the U.S. that have successfully implemented these strategies, including Arlington, Virginia and Denver, Colorado. This webinar provides one AICP CM continuing education credit. Register for the webinar here.
