SUMMARY:Electricity Steering Committee Half-Day Event
DESCRIPTION:EBA’s Electricity Steering Committee is hosting a half-day event! This program will kick off with keynote remarks from the Honorable Richard Glick\, followed by two informational panels and a reception.  \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is now closed for this event.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2:05 PM – 2:30 PM Keynote Remarks and Q&A Session: Former FERC Chairman Richard Glick \n\n\n\n2:35 PM – 3:45 PM Panel 1: Transmission Rights of First Refusal: Legal and Policy Considerations  \n\n\n\nThere is renewed focus on transmission ROFRs as the US Supreme Court considers addressing the constitutionality of Texas’ law restricting development of certain transmission projects to incumbent transmission owners and FERC considers whether to authorize federal ROFRs for certain transmission projects.  Our panel will discuss recent developments in this area\, the constitutional boundaries for state ROFR laws\, and whether transmission ROFRs are warranted as a policy matter. \n\n\n\n\n\nNick CicaleFERC CounselGibson\, Dunn & Crutcher LLP\n\n\n\n\n\nLarry GasteigerExecutive DirectorWIRES\n\n\n\n\n\nJane RuegerPartnerPerkins Coie LLP\n\n\n\n\n\nSharon SegnerSenior Vice PresidentLS Power Development \n\n\n\n\n\n3:50 PM – 5:00 PM Panel 2: Mandates v. Market Incentives for Inverter-Based Resources \n\n\n\nAs more inverter-based resources interconnect to the Bulk-Power System\, are regulators and electric market operators striking the right balance between issuing mandates and encouraging the evolution of markets to recognize all the generation attributes and services that each type of resource could offer?  Our panel will discuss the latest developments in this area and whether more should be done to compensate inverter-based resources and other generation resources for their necessary attributes through market mechanisms. \n\n\n\n\n\nAlan RukinAttorney-Advisor\, Office of the General CounselFederal Energy Regulatory Commission \n\n\n\n\n\nSusan BruceAttorneyMcNees Wallace & Nurick LLC\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael GogginVice PresidentGrid Strategies LLC\n\n\n\n\n\nSteven ShparberMemberClark Hill PLC.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister: In-Person\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister: Virtual\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Types Member  Nonmember Registration$75$95Student RegistrationFree$20\n\n\n\n\nSponsor this event!

How are those rates determined and by whom ? How does legislation (State and Federal) affect the bottom line on every monthly energy bill? \n\n\n\nThis panel will introduce you to representatives of the southern states’ commissions and professionals who appear before such commissions. These representatives function as the General Counsels for their respective Commissions or as the lead consumer advocates appearing before various state commissions. \n\n\n\nPanelists will discuss the differing commission structures in the South and share their expertise on such matters as judicial conduct\, ex parte communications\, open meeting requirements\, competency and the practice of utility law\, the often times dual advisory/advocacy roles of public utility practitioners\, gift restrictions and other trending issues. \n\n\n\n\n\nElizabeth ShoenfeldSenior Assistant Bar CounselVirginia State Bar\n\n\n\n\n\nArlen BolstadDeputy General CounselVirginia State Corporation Commission\n\n\n\n\n\nThomas BondDirector of UtilitiesGeorgia Public Service Commission\n\n\n\n\n\nNanette EdwardsExecutive DirectorOffice of Regulator Staff\, South Carolina\n\n\n\n\n\nAdria E.

SUMMARY:Co-Sponsored Event: ESG and Anti-ESG for the Association of Corporate Counsel
DESCRIPTION:Associates Majidah Cochran (Washington\, DC) and Kirstin Gruver (Seattle) will present an Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) Environmental & Sustainability Network Legal Update webinar\, “The ESG and Anti-ESG Convergence” on Tuesday\, March 7\, from 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET. This program is co-sponsored by the ACC Energy Network and the Energy Bar Association. \n\n\n\nEnvironmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) policies have attracted a groundswell of critics within private and public companies and federal and state governments. The interplay of this Anti-ESG movement and the energy transition has come to light with a growing number of Anti-ESG bills\, shareholder proposals\, and climate change litigation. During this webinar\, our speakers will provide a high-level overview of developments within the Anti-ESG movement\, discuss the relatively broad support for ESG\, and share helpful tips about how to navigate the legal risks present when ESG and Anti-ESG converge. \n\n\n\nIf you are a corporate counsel and would like to register for this Legal Update webinar\, please click here. If you are not an ACC member\, please email events@bdlaw.com for more information. \n\n\n\nBeveridge & Diamond is proud to sponsor the ACC Environmental and Sustainability Network\, a group that enhances the ability of ACC members to practice environmental law. The Network provides resources\, peer connections\, and other support for member companies on environmental and sustainability issues for facilities and products\, including project development and worker health and safety issues. \n\n\n\nEBA Members can create a free account to register for the program: Create Account
