ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Mike Dunleavy

Governor of Alaska

The Alaska Sustainable Energy Conference is a chance to join visionaries, researchers, policymakers, and investors from across the world as the energy transition unfolds and emerging technologies advance.

There is no better place to explore the future of energy than Alaska – a land filled with more sustainable energy potential than nearly any place on earth.

Alaska is home to established commercial scale wind, solar and hydro; it’s serving as a proving ground for tidal and micronuclear power; and the state is advancing an LNG project that will displace coal, reduce global emissions by at least 77 million tons, and has the potential to unlock blue and green hydrogen fuel.

With its challenging climate and hundreds of remote communities unconnected to traditional infrastructure, Alaska is a world leader in microgrid deployment where renewable energy sources are being integrated even north of the Arctic Circle. The state has the ability to capture and sequester gigatons of carbon and has nearly every one of the 50 critical minerals identified as key to the energy transition.

In short, Alaska has it all.

The 2023 conference will explore the future of energy in Alaska and around the world, the intersection of geopolitical upheaval with food and energy security, the latest advancements in renewable power, transmission, and storage, and much more.

TRACK 1: DECARBONIZING EVERYTHING

The energy transition is all about decarbonization, but how do we replace existing practices and technologies that produce our food and move goods and people around the world? From agriculture to aviation, this track will explore the most promising work toward decarbonization.

TRACK 2: MADE IN ALASKA

Owing to its rugged and isolated place on the planet, Alaska has long had to rely on its own resources to support its people. From critical minerals to carbon storage and harnessing tidal energy, this track will explore the ways Alaska is well-positioned to be a global leader in all phases of the energy transition at home and beyond.

TRACK 3: WORKING IN REMOTE ALASKA

With more than 200 microgrids and a similar number of isolated communities in some of the harshest climates on the planet, Alaska’s successes in remote power generation, cold climate research, and the integration of renewable power north of the Arctic Circle will be explored in this track focused on applying lessons learned here around the world.

TRACK 4: ALL OF THE ABOVE

Alaska is an all-of-the-above energy state, and this breakout track will examine a wide variety of topics around sustainable energy including public policy, federal incentives and opportunities, logistics, and powering rural communities.
