Everything is bigger in Texas, and our energy challenges are growing just as they are around the country. The deployment of microgrids with energy storage has the potential to help alleviate Texas’s energy challenges but we can’t have one without the other. While both microgrids and energy storage have matured significantly, there are still many technological barriers that need to be overcome for each to see its true potential in solving our energy problems.
Registration deadline: Jan. 28, 2016
No individual can create the political will needed for action on climate alone, but by coming together we have the power to move Congress towards solutions that will restore the climate.
People who have been to our regional conferences, have called them “life-changing, empowering and inspiring.”
Tony Robinson, president of FLUX Environmental, Axis Design-Build-Inc. and an adjunct professor in Environmental Sustainability at Southern Methodist University. Public welcome.
Former state representative (D-Fort Worth) Lon Burnam is running for the Texas Railroad Commission. There are profound problems with the way the oil and gas industry controls the Commission and we need to have some balance in the way the Commission operates. Lon will represent homeowners who are not currently represented because of the heavy hand of the oil and gas industry.
Please join Lon for a “Brunch with Burnam”. He has two challengers in the Democratic primary and needs to spend resources fighting Republicans, not on a run-off.
All monthly meetings are free and open to the public.
After coffee and cookies over introductions, we'll discuss updates with both our local chapter and then have the chance to jump into action items like confirming details about our upcoming fundraising opportunity as well as strategies to reach out to our local newspaper with a follow-up Op-Ed as well as writing letters to our Rep. Burgess on some of the recent developments in the House with the Gibson resolution.
