The Colorado Energy Research Collaboratory will host the 21st Century Energy Transition Symposium, May 4-5 and 14. The event will be online only and free of charge. Last year’s symposium was cancelled due to the pandemic.
Though the virtual symposium is free this year, registration is required. Attendees may choose to attend all or part of the symposium.
The Collaboratory, made up of Colorado State University, University of Colorado Boulder, Colorado School of Mines and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, is a research consortium focused on building energy-related collaborations among the four member entities. The Energy Transition Symposium, now in its ninth year, is a nonpartisan, educational event focused on research-driven solutions for the world’s energy challenges.

Although climate analysts welcome the long-term target, they are worried that allowing emissions to continue to climb over the next ten years would exhaust the global carbon budget. If China struggles on emissions, the rest of the planet will fail on containing serious climate change, Matthew Gray, co-chief executive of TransitionZero, said. However, the stars are starting to converge in China s favor in terms of cracking its coal addiction.
The discovery that replacing coal with green energy could save China money in the short and long term raises the possibility of a decisive shift away from coal in the coming years.
