Here Comes the Sun! (And Wind and Batteries)

“What does the clean energy transition actually look like—and how close are we?”

Here Comes the Sun! (And Wind and Batteries) explores that question with clarity and optimism.

Join Dr. Steve Jorissen, adjunct professor of Chemistry at the University of St. Thomas, for an engaging, science-based look at how renewable energy is already reshaping our systems—and what’s coming next. From solar and wind to battery storage and grid innovation, this session connects the dots between today’s technologies and a more affordable, reliable, and resilient energy future.
