Young Professionals in Energy (YPE) SF Bay Area is hosting a winter party to celebrate the holidays!

Join us for a fireside chat with Kate Gordon, the CEO of California Forward (CA FWD), a statewide organization dedicated to a more sustainable, resilient, and inclusive economy. Gordon has spent the past two decades working at the intersection of climate change, energy policy, and equitable economic development. Most recently, she served within the Biden-Harris administration as Senior Advisor to U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.

After the fireside chat, stick around for an end-of-year celebration of the YPE community. Dinner and drinks will be provided. Wear your finest ugly sweater or sparkles for this special YPE holiday event!

This event is hosted at the headquarters of Fifty Years, a VC firm based in San Francisco, backing founders using technology to solve the world's biggest problems.

50 Years is a no-shoes office--the perfect opportunity to showcase ugly holiday socks to match your ugly sweater!

Join us for a high-flying night at the SFO Museum and learn about the path to aviation decarbonization!

The key lever to reduce aviation’s climate impact is Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). SAF is expected to contribute 70% of the industry’s carbon dioxide emissions reduction through 2050. Flights out of SFO refuel with among the highest SAF volumes globally due to California’s industry-leading Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and SFO's dedicated advocacy, which collectively bring SAF closer to price parity with traditional jet A fuel.

​Join us for an exciting dialogue on how to reduce aviation’s climate impact at the historic SFO International Terminal Museum over catered appetizers and drinks. This fireside chat brings together critical perspectives from distinguished panelists across investment, SAF production, airline operations, and airport sustainability. They will discuss the role of SAF, clean energy technologies, and non-CO2 reduction measures to address the sector’s growing climate impact.

​Moderator: Erin Cooke, Director of Sustainability + Resilience @ SFO

​Panelists:

• ​Ashwin Jadhav, Vice President, Business Development @ Twelve

• ​Peter Ortez, Principal @ Munich Re Ventures

• ​Elvis Ebikande, PhD, Sr. Sustainable Fuels Consultant @ Southwest

​Agenda:

• ​Museum doors open: 5:30pm

• ​Panel begins: 6:00pm

• ​Networking: 7:00pm

• ​End: 8:30pm

​The Museum is located pre-security in the International Terminal (G Concourse) near departures pillar 12. See the event page for full wayfinding instructions.

Join us for an in person tour of the EBMUD's Bioenergy Recovery Site and networking happy hour at Temescal Brewing to follow!

YPE is pleased to partner with EBMUD to host this site visit tour of renewable energy infrastructure right here in the Bay Area! This will be the first of a series of site visits YPE will offer in 2024, look for similar events in the near future!

The East Bay Municipal Utility District is a California public utility that supplies high-quality drinking water, generates renewable energy, and provides pollution prevention and wastewater treatment services that protect San Francisco Bay. EBMUD has been producing renewable energy since the 1980s; in 2011 it became the first wastewater treatment plant in North America to produce more energy onsite than is needed to run the facility. EBMUD collects 20-40 tons of food scraps daily from restaurants, supermarkets and other municipal entities and utilizes anaerobic digestion to create biogas that powers its on-site low emission gas turbine to power its facility, selling any excess energy back to the grid.

The EBMUD in-person tour will be led by an EBMUD employee and typically lasts 1.5 hours. Please note - all attendees will be required to fill out a waiver in order to participate in the tour. Please fill out the waiver and fill out this survey so we can collect copies in advance. Alternatively, you can also print and bring your waiver with you to your tour. Additionally, EBMUD cautions - "This tour involves walking up and down narrow stairways, walking over uneven ground, and potentially being exposed to strong odors and birds." Closed toed shoes are required and parking is limited, so please carpool if at all possible

Directions to the facility can be found here or refer to the description below: "When you turn onto Wake Avenue, follow the road as it curves to the right. The Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is approximately 1/4 mile, at the end of Wake. The security guard will provide parking directions. Look for signs that will direct you to the building entrance and to the reception.

Happy Hour and Networking will follow around 5:30 PM at Temescal Brewing - 4115 Telegraph Ave, Oakland, CA 94609. YPE to provide an initial round of drinks for those who can attend!

Are virtual power plants (VPPs) the solution to achieving our decarbonization goals? VPPs are innovative energy systems that leverage technology and advanced control systems to manage and optimize a diverse array of distributed energy resources (DERs). VPPs represent a fundamental shift in energy management, transitioning from a centralized model to a decentralized and distributed system that can enhance grid reliability and promoting the integration of renewable energy. So is an even more distributed electric grid the way of the future? Come learn from leaders in the VPP ecosystem to understand the challenges and opportunities in deploying VPPs at scale!

Speakers:

• Yang Yu - Senior Manager, Business Development & Market Strategy, Sunrun (Moderator)

• Astrid Atkinson - Co-Founder & CEO, Camus Energy

• Smriti Mishra - Senior Director of Strategic Growth, WeaveGrid

After the three rounds of discussions are over, stick around to socialize with other attendees!

Curious what we'll discuss? Here are some example prompts:

• Should the US increase its use of nuclear?

• Should we invest in green hydrogen? If yes, in what sectors?

• Who do you think is in a better position to move climate policy forward? State or federal government?

• Should natural gas be used as a transition fuel to achieve net zero carbon?

• Which is more beneficial to clean energy investment - venture capital vs government funding?

• Should the US pay developing countries to help them avoid carbon emissions? If yes, how do you decide how much money and how should we pay them?

• Do you think autonomous electric vehicles present more positives or negatives to the workforce, transit access, safety, and the environment?

• Should individuals cut down on flight travel in order to reduce their carbon footprint?

• Should the federal government actively build new clean infrastructure or should we incentivize markets to move in that direction?
