USD School of Law - Energy Policy Initiatives Center

We at USD School of Law - Energy Policy Initiatives Center and our friends at The San Diego Regional Climate Collaborative had a great final day of our first San Diego Regional Energy Academy cohort yesterday. We spent the morning at UC San Diego learning about their cutting-edge energy projects and work to reach net zero emissions. A huge thanks to Mike Ferry, Michelle Perez, and Sasha Doppelt, PMP for their hospitality. We spent the afternoon at San Diego Gas & Electric's Wildfire and Climate Resilience Center (WCRC). We heard about SDG&E's efforts to prevent wildfires from Thom Porter and climate threats from Mark Merrifield of Scripps Institution of Oceanography. We finished the day with a robust team competition in SDG&E's Resilience Zone! Thank you to all who helped to make this an amazing day and fitting end to our first cohort. Most of all, we want to thank the amazing participants! To learn more, https://bit.ly/3TBrVb4 #energyacademy
