Join the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for ArcticX—an InnovationXLab series exploring the Arctic’s largely untapped potential to serve as a living laboratory of clean energy innovation.

Co-hosted by the Office of Technology Transitions and the Arctic Energy Office, ArcticX will showcase U.S. leadership in energy innovation and commercialization. It will also highlight the resourcefulness and resilience that define this traditionally underserved but strategically important region.

Explore the following topics: 

• What are the main differences between legacy and advanced nuclear technologies?
• When will advanced nuclear technologies become commercially available?
• What could advanced nuclear energy mean for Wyoming?

There is so much occurring with energy policy and decision-making today at the local, state, federal and international levels. As decision-makers weigh their choices, it’s important to understand tradeoffs, cross-sectoral value, and likely impacts.

The Energy Policy Conference recognizes the pivotal nature of these choices at this time, which is why we are focusing on Disruption and Megatrends in Energy. This conference series is one of the longest-running and largest conferences that focuses directly on energy policy. It is a premier, interdisciplinary forum in North America that examines issues and opportunities tied to energy decision-making. It does so, with timely discussion and research that fosters in-depth, cross-cutting exchanges of ideas. Our attendees join from national labs, public agencies, non-profits, industry, thinktanks, and academia. We are celebrating our 10th Anniversary with an all-virtual conference that features 5 keynote addresses by energy leaders, plenary sessions on resilience in the power sector and the future of electric vehicles, an Expo Hall for sponsors and posters, research panels and roundtables, Energy trivia, networking, and more.

The urgency of addressing climate change has never been more clear and the need for ambitious common ground solutions has never been more crucial. Policymakers must work together to make progress on these massive challenges. In pursuit of tangible, measurable solutions, the Atlantic Council Global Energy Center (GEC) is partnering with Uniper to launch a new Transition Trailblazers Series— a flagship forum for global energy leaders to discuss key energy transition challenges and opportunities. Through this program, the GEC provides a platform for policymakers, leading energy innovators, and business leaders to help develop and amplify the right energy policy solutions to drive the global energy transition.

Please join the GEC for the inaugural edition of Transition Trailblazers series, featuring Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) and Senator Mike Braun (R-IN), moderated by Dr. Julia Nesheiwat, Distinguished Fellow, Global Energy Center at the Atlantic Council, on Tuesday, August 3, from 11:45 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. EDT. Marc Merrill, President & CEO of Uniper North America, will provide opening remarks; he will be introduced by Randolph Bell, Director of the Global Energy Center at the Atlantic Council. The speakers will focus on the opportunities for bipartisan climate cooperation as well as the role of the private sector in the energy transition. We hope you will join us for the launch of this high-level series.
