At the New York Energy Conference organized by Schneps Media, key figures in the Queens community gathered to discuss the ongoing transition to clean energy amid ambitious climate goals.
The event on April 10 at the Bulova Center in Astoria centered around two panel discussions on investment, affordability, and attainability of climate change initiatives. Dozens of attendees walked away with increased knowledge of the current energy landscape to apply in their respective industries and communities.
“Clean energy is absolutely important from a climate perspective,” said keynote speaker Will Hazelip, President of National Grid Ventures in the U.S Northeast. “But it’s also about building a sustainable energy system that can last for hundreds and hundreds of years. And it’s well worth that investment.”
