Webinar Graphic Achieving YIMBY- Engaging Communities on Clean Energy Infrastructure 1

WEDNESDAY, JULY 12, 12 PM ET / 9 AM PT
To meet state clean energy goals, building new clean energy infrastructure has become more critical than ever. Yet, many communities are often skeptical or resistant to these changes when they begin to take shape in their back yards. How do we bring communities along to say, “Yes In My Back Yard (YIMBY)”?

This webinar is designed to equip stakeholders, policymakers, and clean energy advocates with the necessary tools and techniques to engage and educate local communities about the immense benefits of the critical transmission and clean energy infrastructure being built in their neighborhoods.

Our expert panelists will share success stories about clean energy projects, highlighting the critical need for community engagement and discussions around local siting and permitting within communities.
