State-Level Blueprints for a Clean and Resilient Energy Economy

State initiatives are driving the next wave of renewable energy growth across the United States, bridging the gap in the absence of federal policy support. This session brings together regional experts to highlight how states are advancing clean energy projects without federal incentives, reshoring manufacturing, reshaping energy markets, upgrading the grid, and boosting workforce development. Panelists will explore how state and local programs are accelerating solar and storage deployment, promoting equity, and offering replicable models of clean, resilient energy economies.
