Hosting by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2021 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how tribes can improve community resilience, foster economic development, and support environmental stewardship. Developing utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) projects can be a lengthy and complex process—and to date, only a few utility-scale projects have been built on tribal lands. This webinar will explore wha...

Hosting by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2021 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how tribes can improve community resilience, foster economic development, and support environmental stewardship. Energy projects are often labor-intensive during construction—and once they are complete, local capability is needed to operate and maintain those energy systems. Tribes who develop a local workforce in c...

Hosting by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2021 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how tribes can improve community resilience, foster economic development, and support environmental stewardship. The goal of building electrification is to utilize electricity rather than fossil fuels for building heating and cooking applications. Doing so can improve indoor air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions...

Hosting by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2021 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how tribes can improve community resilience, foster economic development, and support environmental stewardship. With support from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Solar Energy Technologies Office, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and the Midwest Tribal Energy Resources Association (MTERA) have embark...

Hosting by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2021 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how tribes can improve community resilience, foster economic development, and support environmental stewardship. As electric vehicles become a mainstream form of transportation, communities will need to develop new infrastructure to support this major shift in how we fuel our cars and trucks. In this webinar we will look...

Hosting by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2021 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how tribes can improve community resilience, foster economic development, and support environmental stewardship. Microgrids can increase the reliability of the electricity supply for communities and/or essential infrastructure. In this webinar we will explore how tribes can effectively deploy microgrids to improve the res...

State and local energy policies across the country are increasingly focused on strategies such as decarbonization and beneficial electrification with an eye toward a cleaner and more resilient energy system. This session will review how these trends are affecting building energy codes, from concepts such as zero-energy or zero-carbon codes, building performance standards, electrification-readiness, integration with the grid and transportation...

The easiest energy projects to complete are the ones you have the most control over. “Behind-the-meter” projects typically give you that control. This webinar will focus on the benefits and nuances of behind-the-meter projects and why they work. Hosted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Indian Energy, the 2020 Tribal Energy Webinar Series will focus on how to accomplish specific tasks related to energy development on...

Energy storage is becoming increasingly important to support affordable, reliable, and resilient energy delivery. Thermal energy storage can be particularly useful to buildings since significant fractions of energy in the built environment are used to meet thermal loads. Though their value has been successfully demonstrated, thermal energy storage systems are not ubiquitous throughout the building stock. To help catalyze further development in...
