Presentation:
Presenter: Elle Nicholson, Intern with the Texas Solar Energy Society ("TXSES")
About Our Presenter:
Elle is currently majoring in Philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin, and plans to pursue a career in International Environmental Law. She has conducted alternative energy research for the regulatory department of an energy engineering and consulting firm, and completed a senior thesis advocating for a cap-and-trade system in the United States. Elle is active in several climate-related organizations on her campus. In addition to her experience in public speaking and renewable energy policy, she is also a published author with extensive writing experience.
About Our Presentation:
Almost a thousand bills were filed in the Texas 89th legislative session, many of which pertain to energy policy. TXSES analyst Elle Nicholson has been tracking several renewable energy bills for TXSES, as well as participating in the policy group Alliance for a Clean Texas (ACT). This presentation will outline TXSES’ bills of interest, the politics surrounding them, and their progress through the Texas legislature. It will also highlight some other key energy policy moments from the legislature before concluding with a Q&A portion. Join the meeting to learn more about renewables’ role in the current Texas legislative session!
