Our Electrification Challenge: Growing, Greening, and Tempering the Grid While Lowering Costs

What You Will Learn: Much like the media publishing and distributing industry changed from analog to digital formats and from a broadcast to an interactive network in the 1990’s Multimedia Revolution, so today is the electrical grid changing from fossil fuel to renewable energy generation and from a hierarchical to a bi-directional energy network.  The Electrotech Revolution has broad implications for policy, novel benefits and opportunities for consumers and entrepreneurs, and the potential to disrupt the residential and commercial building sector as electricity’s largest user by far.  You will learn from leaders of five of the most influential organizations shaping energy delivery in Maine what it means for our industry and the clients we serve.

Dan Burgess, Acting Commissioner of the Maine Department of Energy Resources

Fortunat Mueller, Co-Founder of Revision Energy

Heather Sanborn, Maine Public Advocate

Phil Bartlett, Chairman of the Public Utility Commission

Michael Stoddard, Director of Efficiency Maine Trust

12 PM - 1 PM - Lunch will be provided; an epicurean lunch will be prepared by the Chef and culinary arts students at SMCC

1 PM – 4 PM, 3 CEUs

Our Ruggedization Challenge: On Resilience, Adaptation, and Affordability of the Built Environment Confronted by Climate Change

What you will learn: Climate change is a consequence of the release of greenhouse gases from fossil fuel combustion causing global warming and disrupting the weather in the form of heat waves, more severe storms with higher wind and rainfall, and sea level rise in our state.  We are mitigating climate change through the clean energy transition, but this will take time.  Meanwhile, the impacts of climate change that once were out in the future are now real and present dangers to health, safety, and assets.  Damage to buildings and infrastructure increases maintenance costs and insurance premiums, accelerates degradation, and compromises resale value.  Instructors will share actions to anticipate as well as recover from the damage to our community.

Chris Schorn, Southern Maine Project Director, Maine Coast Heritage Trust, Conservation Easements 

Rob Wood, Director of Land Use for the Maine Department of Environmental Protection

Nathan Robbins, Climate Change Specialist at the Maine Department of Environmental Protection

Sig Sandzén, Senior Project Designer, Landscape Architecture, The Knickerbocker Group

Tony Hafford, Founder and President, T. C. Hafford, Basement Waterproofing

Charlie Mercer, Director of Fortify Maine, a project of the Maine Bureau of Insurance

* Julia Bassett Schwerin will introduce the sessions and instructors and moderate a Question and Answer segment at the end of each class.
