In an effort toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions, many countries are retiring generation fuelled by fossil fuels and scaling up clean energy. This reduction is mostly realized through decommissioning existing plants, oftentimes well before their planned retirement, and in part because clean energy can provide lower-cost power relative to fossil fuels.

This webinar’s discussion will highlight regional hydrogen hubs and supporting tribal self determination to replace tribal industries impacted by climate change. The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) is accelerating breakthrough technologies that support abundant, affordable, and reliable clean energy solutions to address the climate crisis and rapidly reach the Biden–Harris Administration's net-zero carbon emissions goal by 2050.

This webinar will cover the important topic of CO2 sequestration and carbon capture.
Removal of carbon from the atmosphere is the new norm for energy projects. Carbon Capture is bringing new technology options to tribal lands and is an important option as discussions for clean energy move forward.
In this webinar we will look at CO2 sequestrations and carbon capture as it plays out on and near tribal lands.

This webinar will cover water and its relationship to energy. Water is life and the life of many energy projects.
Water in many regions in the U.S. is scarce due to droughts and lost water rights. The water nexus is an important consideration.
In this webinar we discuss the relationship between water and its many uses including areas such as energy production. We will discuss water policies, drought, other non-energy uses, national security and energy development.

The world has growing volumes of single-use plastics that are a valuable scrap resource and yet, they continue to be landfilled. It is apparent from continuously increasing annual plastic production, low recycling rates, land use concerns, and energy recovery statistics that development and implementation of technologies to recycle or upcycle plastic waste is a need of the hour. Chemical recycling methods such as gasification are alternatives to combustion or incineration for resource recovery from mixed plastic waste.

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), only about 11% of energy sector company founders are female. However, rising global emissions and the increased use of renewable energy has created many opportunities for women to start clean energy businesses.
On March 8, International Women’s Day, USEA will host a special webinar on women entrepreneurs in energy. Our panelists will discuss their professional journeys, the formation of their companies, and the challenges they've overcome along the way.

Electric power generation contributes about 1/3 of all U.S. carbon emissions. Southwest Research Institute and its partners are developing advanced power generation utilizing supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) instead of steam to improve efficiencies of both traditional fossil powered plants as well as concentrating solar power (CSP) plants.
