    Keynote Speaker Gina McCarthy, First-Ever White House National Climate Advisor and and Former Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

    Co-hosted by the University of Connecticut and Eversource Energy, the summit will take place at UConn, Storrs and will bring together academic, utility, industry, municipal and legislative experts to discuss the shifting energy landscape and will feature final presentations from six student-led research teams as part of the Eversource-sponsored Clean Energy and Sustainability Innovation Program (CESIP). As part of this program, students are researching possible solutions (technical, social, and political) to address different aspects of the grand challenge of decarbonization at the local (UConn campuses), state and regional (New England) levels.
