Rural America & The Clean Energy Transition

Anchored by Canary Media's flagship reporting series on rural America, this event puts a spotlight on the communities that too rarely make the headlines.

The day features main stage conversations with Canary journalists, expert panelists, and partners, alongside breakout sessions and workshops diving deeper into the topics shaping clean energy's next chapter.

Space is limited. Please join the waitlist and we'll notify you when a spot opens up.

A reception rounds out the day, giving attendees space to connect with the clean energy leaders who are doing the work.

Info: Mondale Robinson didn’t return to Enfield, North Carolina to manage decline. He came back to
change it. Since his election in 2022, he’s been assembling the pieces of a full community
energy transformation, including solar, geothermal, weatherization, and grid modernization, in one of the poorest towns in the state. This conversation breaks down how he’s doing it, what’s working, and what the rest of the country can learn from a small town betting everything on a clean energy future.
