Public Policy Forum
Grid Resilience and Buildout
This forum will explore how stakeholders can identify infrastructure and technology policy solutions for modernizing the grid, as well as partnerships and workforce actions that help re-employ displaced fossil-fuel workers in transmission, grid modernization, and clean energy careers—linking workforce pipelines, higher education, and state investment programs to strengthen regional reliability and long-term economic resilience.
This is a public forum designed for open dialogue. Your experiences, concerns, and ideas will directly inform state policy decisions that affect energy reliability, economic opportunity, and quality of life in the Four Corners region. Community perspectives are critical—and your presence will make a meaningful difference.
