SUMMARY:Transmission Time: Environmental Justice & Electric Transmission
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, May 31\, Americans for a Clean Energy Grid (ACEG) and the State Energy & Environmental Impact Center for a webinar on environmental justice considerations in transmission development. \nHistorically\, the U.S. has constructed infrastructure in a manner that disproportionately harms low-income communities and people of color. Now the country urgently needs to expand its electric transmission system\, so how can we build out the grid in an equitable way? \nTransmission lines can span hundreds of miles\, and they will pass through some communities\, including Tribal lands. Our panel of expert speakers will explore how developers can undertake meaningful local engagement at all stages of the process\, including transparent and collaborative route selection\, the development of community benefit funds\, and other innovative ways to ensure that those impacted by a project also benefit from it. \nFeatured speakers include: \n\nJasmine Jennings — WE ACT for Environmental Justice\nKristen Golden — Grid United\nMontina Cole — Jai Green Consulting\nMo-Yain Tham — Jobs to Move America\nModerated by Christine Powell — EarthJustice\n\nView a recording of the event here.
