We’re less than two weeks away from the 13th Annual CUB Energy Policy Conference! CUB is proud to introduce this year’s keynote speaker.
This year’s conference will be on October 6 from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm at Left Bank Annex in Portland, Oregon.
2023 CUB Energy Policy Conference
Building(s) for an Equitable Energy Future will explore how construction, energy systems, and local climate policies overlap. We will be diving into who is informing clean energy policies and the community impacts of these decisions. We will make connections between community advocates, the energy industry, the buildings industry, and policymakers. And we will bring in vital perspectives from communities on the front lines of climate change in the Pacific Northwest.
