Chapman University Fowler School of Law's Nexus Journal presents:

A Sustainable Future: The Advancement and Implementation of Renewable Energy

Friday, October 23, 2015
9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Chapman University is a State Bar of California approved MCLE provider and certifies that this activity has been approved for MCLE credit in the amount of 5 general MCLE credits.

The advancement of renewable energy as a long term solution to climate change is at the forefront of political debate. The benefits of independent, sustainable energy sources are being weighed against the constraints of economic viability. Energy policies are inconsistent from state to state, and antiquated at the federal level when compared to policies in place for traditional energy sources. The result has been a deadlock in the political discussion and varied progress in renewable energy advancement and implementation.

Our symposium brings policy influencers, industry professionals, and legal scholars together to foster and encourage healthy conversation and debate on the subject. The topics covered will include: current and prospective federal and state laws; policy initiatives that are beneficial or burdensome to growing renewable sources in the U.S. and their implementation barriers; and future trends in the renewable energy sector.
