SUMMARY:Small Modular Nuclear Reactors: is nuclear in Oregon's future?
DESCRIPTION:Join Solar Oregon and hear from advocates both supportive and opposed to a new generation of nuclear tech\, and what it might mean for Oregon\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nSmall Modular Reactors (SMRs) represent a new generation of nuclear technology that promises to solve the high cost and safety concerns associated with traditional large nuclear reactors. Will they live up to their promise? Join Solar Oregon as we explore both the ups and the downs of a technology that–whether you love it or hate it–aims to be part of a carbon-free future. \nWe are joined by a special panel of experts spanning both sides of the SMR conversation: \nTom Sicilia\, PG\, is a hydrogeologist in the Nuclear Safety and Emergency Preparedness division of the Oregon Department of Energy (ODOE). His background is in investigation and remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater. Since joining ODOE in 2018\, he has been following developments in the nuclear energy sector. While his primary focus area is activities at the Hanford site\, he is also become a resource for information on Small Modular Reactors. \nEmma Redfoot is a board member and outreach specialist for Mothers for Nuclear\, an organization focused on engaging in a dialogue surrounding the importance of nuclear energy as part of protecting nature for current and future generations. She has a BA in Environmental Studies from Lewis and Clark College and an MS in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Idaho. Emma supports nuclear energy due to the environmental and social benefits it provides as an emissions free source of electricity that has been one of the major tools for rapid decarbonization around the world. She supports nuclear and renewable energy sources working together to provide clean\, reliable\, and affordable electricity to meet the intertwined challenges of climate change and energy accessibility. \nDamon Motz-Storey leads Oregon PSR’s Healthy Climate Program advocating for a just transition from fossil fuels and nuclear power to clean\, renewable energy. Damon coordinates Oregon PSR’s climate and environmental lobbying efforts to ensure that public health and safety are well-considered by policy makers at the local\, state\, and federal levels. Damon has been with Oregon PSR since 2016 and enjoys cooking\, singing\, and cycling around the city of Portland.

SUMMARY:Energy Resilience Centers
DESCRIPTION:Energy resilience centers provide refuge and critical services for communities and businesses when disaster strikes. In the face of devastating wildfires\, Cascadia seismic hazard\, and other disruptive grid hazards\, many communities in Oregon are exploring energy resilience centers as an essential infrastructure to safeguard lives and livelihoods. \nSolar Oregon is thrilled to be joined by two prominent experts who have helped communities across the country adopt energy resilience centers. Please join this free webinar and learn how your community can take the first step toward disaster preparedness. \nGeoff Oxnam is a microgrid project developer and former utility executive with more than two decades of experience in energy\, utilities\, telecommunications and infrastructure. He has managed strategic planning\, operations\, marketing and communications efforts for those industries and environmental organizations. Geoff founded American Microgrid Solutions in 2016 and has grown the company through dozens of microgrid analyses and development projects in 18 states and territories. He earned a BA in History from Williams College and an MBA from The Johns Hopkins University Carey Business School. Maryland Governor Larry Hogan appointed Geoff to chair the Maryland Clean Energy Center board of directors. \nSeth Mullendore is vice president and project director for Clean Energy Group\, overseeing projects ranging from customer-sited solar and battery storage to the replacement of power plants with clean technologies. Seth works with policy makers\, project developers\, industry\, advocates\, and community and environmental justice groups to advance clean energy policies and projects\, with a focus on achieving greater access to solar and battery storage technologies for disadvantaged communities. Much of his work pertains to the research and reporting of energy storage technologies\, policies\, and supporting market structures. Prior to joining Clean Energy Group\, Seth served as a Sustainable Energy Fellow with Union of Concerned Scientists and worked with Maine Clean Communities to help advance clean transportation initiatives.

SUMMARY:Hang Dry for Climate 2020
DESCRIPTION:Solar Oregon’s 2019 Hang Dry for Climate week received a flood of media attention\, and helped to re-center hang drying laundry as a simple\, time tested way to save money and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Whether you are a life-long hang dryer or a complete newcomer\, you can help grow the movement to abandon the unnecessary advent of the electric tumble dryer–and win prizes! We are very excited to partner with the African American Alliance for Homeownership (AAAH) and Electrify Now for this year’s Hang Dry. \nFULL DETAILS ON EVENTBRITE (link below)

SUMMARY:Webinar on Heat Pump Hot Water Heaters - Game Changers in Efficiency
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will take place on Tuesday 3/31 at 7pm. We’ll post access details for the webinar several days before. \nWe hope our entire community is faring well during these challenging times. Since all events in person are necessarily postponed for the foreseeable future\, we thought we would move our work online where we can still meet and discuss our region’s transition toward clean energy. \nHere at Solar Oregon we’re working on a series of webinars featuring fascinating topics to help us pass this unprecedented period of being at home. Our first discussion will be part of our Go Zero program and will talk about Heat Pump Water Heaters – Game Changers in Efficiency. \nWhy be so excited and devote an entire webinar to a water heater? Because heat pump technology is 3 to 4 times more efficient than other ways to heat and can save money and energy and help us all Go Zero. \nThese water heaters are relatively new so need some introduction and explanation and we hope you’ll join us to learn more!
