Everyone’s eyes have been fixated on COVID-19 pandemic, which is one of the most serious challenges the world has faced since World War II. Countries around the globe are striving hard to restart their economy from the SARS-CoV-2 caused cliff-drop while, global warming, a deeper peril to our habitat on earth lies beneath the surface of this crisis. It is imperative that we take the road of further developing green energy to cope with the climate change.

Then, here are a few questions to ask:

• Would it be a zero-sum game between the post pandemic economic recovery and the measures to counter climate change?
• Would COVID-19 impede the progress of green energy development or bring in new opportunities instead?
• How would the world continue on the path of green energy development while facilitating a higher quality economic recovery post the pandemic?

Centered around the above questions of particular interest, UCGEC has brought to you senior experts from Stanford University, University of California at Davis and at Berkeley to discuss electric power, clean energy transportation and energy internet from various angles and dimensions on the low-carbon path the world can take post the pandemic.
