SUMMARY:EESI Briefing | Environmental and Economic Impacts of Super El Niño
URL:eesi.org/092526weather
DESCRIPTION:eesi.org/092526weather\nEnvironmental and Economic Impacts of Super El Niño\nFriday\, September 25\, 2026 • Noon - 1:00 PM EDT\nOnline only * Live webcast will be streamed at eesi.org/livecast\nPlease RSVP @ eesi.org/092526weather#rsvp\n\nThe Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) invites you to an online briefing about the environmental and economic impacts of Super El Niño. El Niño is a natural phenomenon that occurs every few years when the ocean waters of the equatorial Pacific warm beyond normal temperatures. The 2026-2027 Super El Niño is projected to be the largest in 150 years and is expected to result in more frequent and intense extreme weather events across the United States and the world. This briefing will examine the meteorological causes and anticipated impacts of Super El Niño\, including flooding\, droughts\, extreme heat\, wildfires\, and severe winter storms.\n\nIntroductory video remarks by:\n\nRep. Mike Flood\, U.S. Representative (R-Neb.)\nCo-chair\, Congressional Weather Enterprise Caucus\n\nRep. EricSorensen\, U.S.Representative (D-Ill.)\nCo-chair\, Congressional Weather Enterprise Caucus\n\nFeatured Speaker:\n\nMatt Rogers\, President\, Meteorologist and Co-Founder\, Commodity Weather Group\, LLC\, Capital Weather Contributor\nDoug Hilderbrand\, Executive Director\, American Weather Enterprise Association (AWEA)\nThis event is free and open to the public.\n\nFor more information\, contact Daniel O’Brien at dobrien@eesi.org or (202) 662-1880. \nDon’t miss a single briefing: subscribe to our YouTube channel at youtube.com/eesionline

SUMMARY: EESI & WRI Briefing | Bridging the Transmission Gap
DESCRIPTION:eesi.org/100726grid\nBridging the Transmission Gap\nWednesday\, October 7\, 2026 • 1:00 - 2:30  PM EDT\nOnline only * Live webcast will be streamed at eesi.org/livecast\nPlease RSVP @ eesi.org/100726grid#rsvp\nThe Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) and the World Resources Institute (WRI) invite you to a briefing about the benefits of interregional transmission for the economy\, climate\, and grid reliability. The U.S. electric grid is undergoing unprecedented transformation\, driven by rising electricity demand\, the growth of renewable energy\, and security threats posed by extreme weather and cyberattacks. Building more interregional transmission lines—the cables that move power across different regional grids—can bolster grid resilience and move cleaner\, more affordable electricity from lower to higher-priced regions. Yet planning for interregional transmission has lagged behind regional transmission planning\, and implementation gaps remain.\n\nThis briefing will explore policy levers and best practices for long-term\, future-proof interregional transmission planning. Panelists will discuss the current state of interregional transmission\, and outline the regulatory and institutional hurdles to progress. The briefing will also identify emerging policy solutions—pulling from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s 2024 regional transmission framework as a model—for lawmakers\, federal regulators\, and regional grid operators alike that can save ratepayers money and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.\n\nFeatured Speaker:\n\nMark Falinski\, Senior Manager for Power Transition and Decarbonization\, World Resources Institute\nDaniel Palken\, Director of Infrastructure for Energy & Permitting\, Arnold Ventures\nThis event is free and open to the public.\n\nFor more information\, contact Daniel O’Brien at dobrien@eesi.org or (202) 662-1880. \nDon’t miss a single briefing: subscribe to our YouTube channel at youtube.com/eesionline\n
