At Climate Week NYC, the Irving Institute gathered regulators, investors, operators, and policy strategists to examine the structural, financial, and political obstacles standing between America and the grid it needs now. The technology to expand grid capacity already exists—what else needs to be aligned?

A Climate Week NYC panel discussed new technologies—enhanced geothermal, fusion, small modular reactors—that are being put to the same capital markets test that solar, wind, and batteries faced. Investors, frontier energy developers, and scholars agreed that hype itself can drive real breakthroughs.

The Irving Institute and SAP's second Climate Week NYC panel convened supply chain and security experts with leading scholars. Together they examined critical minerals, how we can build more resilient energy supply chains, and what role emerging technologies may play in redefining energy security.

The Irving Institute and SAP partnered to host a Climate Week NYC panel exploring how platform economics, AI, and smarter data sharing can realize the full potential of distributed energy resources and accelerate the path to energy abundance.

The Dartmouth Climate Collaborative, Office of Sustainability, and Energy Justice Clinic co-hosted a Climate Week NYC panel exploring community-based sustainable energy transitions.

A catastrophic glacial collapse that killed over 1,300 people and wiped out 10% of Nepal's electricity capacity is prompting Dartmouth researchers to explain the science behind the disaster and call for more resilient, diversified energy systems.

Their work spanned continents and disciplines, but each asked a version of the same question: how do we build energy systems that are cleaner, and also affordable and equitable for the communities living alongside them?

Every summer, Dartmouth's Irving Institute becomes the meeting ground for early-career geographers, engineers, economists, and more—all united by a shared interest in solving one of humanity's most pressing challenges: the transition to sustainable and equitable energy systems.

Frohman brings experience as an investor and entrepreneur in the energy and climate space, as well as the industrial materials, IT, and consumer products sectors. His recent focus areas include clean energy, electrification of transport, and alternative proteins.

Within two months of graduation, 68 percent of the inaugural Master of Energy Transition cohort secured job offers or advanced study placements.
