Session: Energy Diversity: Reliability, Sustainability, and the Case for an Integrated Approach

Colorado’s oil and gas industry has successfully reduced emissions and adopted sustainable practices driven by a commitment to our environment.  Our industry is not alone in seeking innovative approaches to advance climate goals, as the energy sector includes a diverse pool of energy generation sources that operate in similar regulatory and political environments.  Innovation, financial incentives, and unconventional partnerships are proving the viability of utility-scale applications of these newer technologies, while common issues of land use constraints, infrastructure and community engagement impact all types of energy production.  This panel of oil and gas, nuclear, wind and solar experts will discuss an “all of the above” approach to energy generation and how integrating diverse sources are needed to produce reliable, sustainable, and affordable energy in our communities
