Climate Change and the Electricity Sector

December 2008

Aspen Institute

Abstract

With the expectation that a new Administration and new Congress in 2009 will actively consider climate change legislation, the Aspen Institute’s 2008 Energy Policy Forum chose the topic of “Climate Change and the Electricity Sector.” The Forum, now in its 31st year, convened a select group of leaders and policy experts to discuss commercial and public policy issues at the intersection of energy, the economy and the environment. As in previous years, the format relied heavily on dialogue among the diverse participants who brought a variety of perspectives and areas of expertise to the table. Short introductory presentations kicked off each half-day session, and a spirited, off-the-record discussion followed.
