The Northwest Energy Coalition is honoring four young leaders in the region's efforts to find clean and affordable energy solutions.
The honorees—SustainableWorks managing director Tara Anderson, Climate Solutions' Washington state director Jessica Finn Coven, Idaho Conservation League energy associate Benjamin Otto, and Puget Sound Energy senior energy management engineer Gus Takala—were chosen from a list of 24 nominees.
More than 15 other speakers will also spend time behind the podium, delivering information on the state of Northwest energy efficiency efforts, the generation of wind and solar power in Montana, and the impact of EPA regulations in the energy industry.
All proceeds go toward the NW Energy Coalition’s work for clean and affordable energy solutions.
