The Cooperative Leadership Network (CLN) hosted a 90-minute webinar on Monday, May 20, that explored equitable beneficial electrification for rural electric cooperatives. Beneficial electrification refers to the replacement of fossil-fuel powered systems with electrical ones in a way that reduces overall emissions, while providing benefits to the environment and to households. An example would be switching from propane heating to electric heating, or from a gasoline-powered car to an electric vehicle.

Featured panelists included EESI Program Associate Miguel Yanez, who presented the report, Equitable Beneficial Electrification for Rural Electric Cooperatives, for which he was the lead author.
