Department of Energy Announces Quadrennial Energy Review Public Meeting in New York City
WASHINGTON, DC – The Energy Department’s Office of Energy Policy and Systems Analysis will host a public meeting in New York City, on Monday, October 6, to receive stakeholder input to the Quadrennial Energy Review (QER), an administration-wide effort to make recommendations regarding key infrastructure needed for the transmission, storage and distribution of energy.
The New York City meeting will examine energy infrastructure finance. The meeting will include panel discussions on attracting and maintaining capital for energy transmission, storage, and distribution; bankability of electricity infrastructure; and opportunities and challenges for natural gas and liquid fuels infrastructure. Following panel discussions, the public will have an opportunity to make statements.
The QER, officially launched by President Obama in January, is co-chaired by the White House Domestic Policy Council and Office of Science and Technology Policy, and includes representation from all relevant executive departments and agencies. DOE is playing a key role in development of the QER by providing policy analysis and modeling, and coordinating stakeholder engagement.
Additional information, including the agenda and a full list of the speakers for each panel, is available HERE.
