17th Annual California Climate and Energy Forum

The CCEC Forum brings together several hundred local government staff, elected officials, and community organizations, to collaborate and learn from each other as they work to advance fair and equitable climate change and energy practices. This event will feature engaging sessions, expert plenaries and keynotes, and new innovative activities to help climate and energy leaders and practitioners connect to learn about innovative projects and strategies, share best practices, and troubleshoot challenges. The 17th Annual CCEC Forum will focus on advancing climate and energy solutions that are grounded in real community needs and responsive to a rapidly changing California. It will highlight energy efficiency and other high-impact mitigation strategies, exploring people-centered approaches that prioritize affordability, accessibility, clear communication, and on-the-ground implementation, while embracing new ideas and partnerships. An optional day on June 23rd is available for public agencies only, featuring State/Local Energy & Climate Coordination (SLECC) Meetings.
