During day 1 of the 2024 #MITEnergyConference, at our panel "How is shifting domestic energy policy a game changer for first-of-kind technologies? Entrepreneurs and policy-makers discuss progress in the sector", we discussed about the impact that the IRA has had in the clean energy industry and what adjustments need to be made to move the needle in our transition to a cleaner energy matrix. #MIT #MITEnergy #MITEnergyConference #MITEC #EarlyBirdSpecial #cleanenergy #sustainability #cleanenergytransition #engineering #research #energy #design #communitydevelopment #renewableenergy #zeroemission #globalsustainability #sustainableinvesting

2024 #MITEnergyConference update! Yesterday, during our panel "Green Chemistry for Blue Skies," we discussed alternatives in the manufacturing industry aimed at reducing CO2 emissions. We emphasized the significant role of electricity and CO2 fees as drivers for technology adoption in this sector.

Today is Day 1 of the 2024 #MITEnergyConference at The Westin, Copley Place! During our panel “Grid Resiliency and Energy Storage” Caren Anders, Sam Crawford and Luis Bolio, CFA discussed about the need for energy storage at a transmission and distribution level and about the growing relevance of Distribution System Operators. #MIT #MITEnergy #MITEnergyConference #MITEC #cleanenergy #sustainability #cleanenergytransition #engineering #research #energy #design #communitydevelopment #renewableenergy #zeroemission #globalsustainability #sustainableinvesting

🚨Keynote Speaker alert!🚨 Justina W. Gallegos Deputy Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), will be joining Jonathan Winer as a keynote for the #MITEnergyConference. Within the OSTP, Justina W. Gallegos is leading a new Industrial Innovation division. Core to the Biden-Harris Administration’s economic agenda is an ambitious industrial strategy to rebuild U.S. manufacturing and re-shore supply chains, achieve the nation’s net-zero greenhouse gas goals, create place-based ecosystems that support high-quality jobs, and bolster national security. Gallegos leads efforts focused on advancing innovative technologies and strengthening critical industrial bases.

I am very excited to be moderating this panel of exceptional players in Climate-Tech Capital at the MIT Energy Conference. As climate tech innovation matures, financing needs to evolve. While there is still a need for smart venture capital, there is also an increasing need for project finance, debt financing, and bespoke financing for first-of-a-kind projects. Join us as we discuss the trends in climate/climate-tech capital and how the market will evolve in 2024 and beyond! https://lnkd.in/gmSVA3ZZ

For the past few months, I have been at the MIT Leaders for Global Operations (LGO) program at MIT, pursuing a dual MBA/MS degree. It's been wonderful to engage with the MIT community and converse with a group of people who are doing incredible things to push the envelope on clean energy and decarbonization. As part of my engagement, I have been helping to organize the 2024 MIT Energy Conference, which is the largest student-led energy & climate conference in North America. Each year, we gather hundreds of industry professionals, investors, scholars, and policymakers to present, learn and discuss pressing challenges and opportunities that redefine the future of the energy and climate sectors. Major events of the conference include keynote speeches, panel discussions, climate tech startup showcase, networking sessions, and special live announcements. We would love to see you there!
