From Natural Gas to Hydrokinetics – Energy Options for Ӱ’s Communities: Presentation to House Special Committee on Energy

From Natural Gas to Hydrokinetics – Energy Options for Ӱ’s Communities: Presentation to House Special Committee on Energy

February 12th, 12pm to 1pm
Juneau, Ӱ State Capitol Building, Room 106

Presenters: ACEP Director Gwen Holdmann and Researcher Jeremy Kasper from ACEP’s Ӱ Hydrokinetic Energy Research Center will be in Juneau to present a “Lunch and Learn” for Ӱ legislators and staffers.  

Topic: Access to affordable, reliable energy is key to community sustainability and economic development throughout Ӱ. Learn about the feasibility and status of various energy technology options and how the Ӱ Center for Energy and Power is working with communities, developers, and manufacturers to demonstrate advances in energy technology that address Ӱ’s high cost of power. Hydrokinetic energy – energy extracted directly from moving water in a river or tidal basin - will be highlighted as an example of how research is leading to solutions.
