DUKE UNIVERSITY ENERGY CONFERENCE

Achieving Climate Commitments

Wednesday, November 10, 2021

How will private and public sector entities actually achieve ambitious climate goals over the coming decades? At the 13th annual Duke University Energy Conference, we’ll take an honest look at what’s necessary to realize climate commitments. We invite industry professionals to join students and faculty from Duke and other Research Triangle universities in this exploration, which will feature insights from thought leaders in the public and private sectors.
