Equity Considerations in Energy System Decarbonization - Session W24

Explore a comprehensive conference session on equity considerations in energy system decarbonization from the APS March Meeting 2024. Delve into four expert presentations covering crucial topics: equitable approaches to decarbonizing the built environment, climate and equity impacts of phasing out residential natural gas, developing metrics for assessing justice in early-stage research, and incorporating equity considerations into energy system modeling. Gain valuable insights from leading researchers at institutions like NREL, PSE Healthy Energy, and Argonne National Lab as they discuss cutting-edge approaches to ensuring a just and equitable transition to clean energy systems.
