Please join us on Tuesday, July 14 from 6:00pm – 8:00pm at Tap Room in Patchogue for an evening of conversation and community to learn more about the role Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can play in building a cleaner, more reliable energy future for Long Island and New York.

Hosted by the New York League of Conservation Voters Education Fund, Renewable Energy Long Island, New Yorkers for Clean Power, ACE NY, Sierra Club Atlantic Chapter, and Citizens Campaign for the Environment, this event will bring together community members, advocates, and energy experts for an accessible conversation about how battery storage supports grid reliability, helps integrate renewable energy onto the grid, reduces reliance on polluting peaker plants, and strengthens local resiliency during periods of high energy demand.

Attendees will also hear from industry and safety experts about how BESS projects are designed, regulated, and safely operated in communities across New York.

Speakers include Paul Rogers, Co-Founder of the Energy Safety Response Group and retired FDNY Lieutenant, and Dr. Jeffery Seidman of Vassar College.

We hope you’ll join us for a beer and an important conversation about the future of clean energy on Long Island. RSVP is required.
