The Irving Institute at Climate Week NYC
Working alongside the Dartmouth Climate Collaborative, the Irving Institute helped drive Dartmouth's largest-ever Climate Week NYC presence this September, with seven events across the week attracting more than 800 registrants.
Four Panels, One Energy Transition
“Together, our four panels on September 23 and 24 mapped the full value chain of the energy transition and explored the actual pressure points: intelligent grid operations, supply-chain resilience, capital formation, and transmission. Each panel convened the people building these systems, financing them, and regulating them—alongside Dartmouth faculty, Distinguished Industry Fellows, and alumni working across the energy landscape.” — Professor Geoffrey Parker, Faculty Director, Irving Institute for Energy and Society
